PARTS AND ACCESSORIES

Lazer goes “ Glam ”

Lazer Helmets have updated their SHARP 4- star rated ‘ Bayamo All Star ’ full face and gone “ Glam Rock ” for a striking new look . Made in two shell sizes for men and women ( the lighter version weighs approximately 1,500g ) the visor is Pinlock ready , it has a flexible chin curtain and an internal sun visor . The speaker-ready lining is made from
- high frequency , fully electronic power conversion ( able to receive global 100 – 240Vac power ) and a dual program feature . Program 1 gave direct charging to a 12V battery via the battery clips or permanent battery leads with M6 ( 1 / 4 ”) rings ; program 2 allowed charging to be activated through the CAN bus controlled 12V power port on BMW motorcycles . The OptiMate 4 dual program was the first to solve the problem of the BMW rider periodically having to turn on the key to re-activate their battery maintainer to prevent their battery running down ; OptiMate 4 ’ s keyless program communicated seamlessly with the BMW CAN bus control and guaranteed 24-7 maintenance without the need of supervision . The keyless entry and additional features , such as the ability to save a battery from as low as 0.5V and preand post-charging testing ( allowing the user to monitor charge progress ), quickly made OptiMate 4 dual
removable , washable , antimicrobial material with a quadruple density inner shell and micrometric buckle .
