is smoking weed resin give you the same high as smoking regular weed?
Buy the amount of gear and the form of gear that you feel safe wearing. Depending what you feel safe in and the way you ride that can get very expensive. As a starting motorcyclist you will not traveling at great speeds but you are statistically at greater danger than someone that has been on a motorcycle for more than a year. You are offsetting that greater danger by taking your 'course'. Since you ask about the course they suggest that you wear over the ankle shoes,leather gloves, and long legged pants and shirt. The instructor may have helmets to provide riders one if they don't have a helmet. That may do for some one in a supervised motorcycle course and expected speeds around 18 mph but not for daily exposure. That will come latter.
Edit: if you are being required to meet the 2011 code you need: The circuit to be arc fault protected. NEC Article 210.12(B) All detectors to be interconnected. NFPA 72, 25.2.1.1 Powered from the buildings panel and they must have battery back-up. NFPA 72, 29.6.2 .3 More than 3' from the tip of the blades of a ceiling fan or A/C register.a door to a bath with a tub or shower. And more than 10' from any fixed cooking appliances. Whew! Several changes that I wasn't aware of. But, you may not be made to meet any code later than 2008, 2005 or even earlier than that. Surely there is some way to replace the cable. And, are you absolutely sure he did not run 3 conductor between boxes? He only need 2 conductor from the panel to the first one. Coldwarrior's answer was very good up to the point of running a separate wire for the interconnect. I can only wonder about that part. Dave now has the best answer with Jeff D doing a good job also. Last I checked the NFPA (National Fire Protection Agency) DID require residential smoke detectors to be on their own dedicated circuit and interconnected. They are not to be on GFI or ARC Fault circuits. (I'll double check that at work tomorrow and correct or quote the appropriate article) As a Fire Marshal once told me, You want the power to your fire alarm equipment (including sprinkler pumps) to stay on till the building collapses! I think the other fellow is confusing the requirements for emergency lighting in commercial buildings.
NB* Don't skip the caveats of potential safety hazards of disconnecting a hard-wired smoke detector. But if you insist on taking a risky route then: 1. Turn of the power at your mains (This will turn off all electrical power to your home) 2. Read the instructions to remove the cover (often these will be moulded onto the plastic base) 3. Once removed read the label details as these might provide further instructions 4. Use a screw driver to detach the wires attached to the alarm. This will disable the alarm and stop the chirping. BUT 5. You need to climb up a manhole into the roof-space and tie off/terminate these wires at their source, and not leave them lying in the roof. (Normally a qualified electrician's job) 6. You will need to do some plaster work to fill in the hole you have once the smoke detector base plate is removed from ceiling.
