@supra2nv is yours straight or does it have a slight tension bow in it?
It should be straight and nice and snug. Mine doesn't seem to be under any tension..at least from what I can tell..has your car been in any accident or anything? It should be really sturdy so I doubt there are any issues..if you're really worried, take it to a garage/dealer and have them check for fitment issues or product defects.

Ahh, well that's worth a thumbs up right there. Good to know this won't be a show car. I rock an old Arai GP 6 carbon that has long passed its Snell date. (shh )

Yes. It's not here but I paid for it in advance (had to sell kidney lol) so that I could sport that "my other car is a MONO" sticker on my frs . I told Shinoo at Sector111 that (us distributor) ... he thinks I'm nuts lol

And thank you for the blessing bro I'm a tad nervous about that car lol

Seconded. I think the BAC Mono is making my bike weep with jealousy. And a Schuberth too. Nice helmet choice.

I'd totally be willing to just hang off the back of the Mono for a ride around, haha.
