Although we have had our fantastic 200cc scramblers for a good few years now, I have always borrowed gear and never had my own helmet... until NOW!
Using some generous Christmas funds I went out to fit and find the perfect lid. I don't like austentatious, flaunty gear, and with motocross there's a fair bit of, shall we say, 'showman-ship' with brand names and all sorts of carry on. I was thrilled to find this helmet, and stunned to find that a 'small' was the best fit for me, even with my boofy dreadlocks!
I love the simple colours and lines; it reminds me of a nice vintage black and white 57 chev, appropriately named 'Whitewall'. It was in my price range too - it's worth paying for a reliable brand and good quality, but those that were $300 - $600 stayed on the shelf!!
I managed a couple of rides before my bike had to be taken off to the reliable milk crate for repairs - the back shocky was out :( However, since then the replacement has arrived and Sir Shweetie has fitted it, so come my next R&R I can ride again, in personalised safety style!

That is a very cool helmet, and though they seem hugely expensive, your head is irreplaceable!!
