@@powerdriftofficial when the topic has come down to choosing the right helmet, i think the next video should present topics like ethical riding and about choosing the right riding gear for a biker which would focus more on beginners. If this seems to create a monotony in the taste of videos, we should go for topics like conduct and brotherhood related in biker community or fun topics like why should we take part in rallies and stuff like that. Since podcasts are usually done on topics of certain importance, these should be really good. And now it depends on what is more important; choosing great topics as a creator ..or choosing more consumable content for the masses.

You're welcome, Raminder! About the leg guards, we'd recommend something that can perfectly cover your knees and shins. Although do understand, the guards are only meant for impact protection, not abrasion. And in case of a spill, the straps can break and the guards can come off. A good riding pant is can reduce abrasion injuries as well. Do watch this to get an idea how the pants can help : kzread.info/dash/bejne/mZ-FprFvlsarn7g.html

Loaded with knowledge 👍 I wear an entry level helmet ( MT Thunder ) and my friends were like, its so costly 😂 I gave them exact same reasoning, my head is worth a lot more and I will upgrade to a better one. Also loved the sarcasm by Shumi, had me in splits 😂 I remember reading an old article by him once in which he said, his gears were costlier than the bike he was riding to.office daily ( some 150cc i guess ), probably for long term review. From that point i realized, gears are more.important. will share with every rider i know. Thanks guys 😁
