View Full Version : Ordered my helmet today!
No biggie but I'm excited. I had borrowed a friend's helmet for the 2 months that I rode before it got cold. This one is much nicer and I can't wait to put it on and ride in a few months! Its an Arai, Nicky Hayden designed helmet. Nothing flashy like the rossi helmets that my friends' wear but I think its pretty sleek. And its hand-made! haha Lemme know whatcha think.

Nice, I woulda thought you would have picked something with some red in it tho... but I guess there are probably limited choices.

Nice... it must be killing ya that you can't drive it right now. But I'm sure it will feel amazing come Spring.

Are you gonna tint the visor or keep it clear or anything? Looks awesome, nice paint job.
thanks for the compliments. I looked at some with red but most are a basic bright red and since mine isn't that it almost would've looked worse imo. My bike has plenty of black in it so this one should be good. I am going to get a tinted shield eventually and a tinted windscreen.
I've also got smoked lens flush mount turn signals and rear tail light with the led turn signals integrated into the light so that should be pretty cool when I get it on. And your right Keith, the spring cant come fast enough!

Yeah, the red issue makes sense... I guess it would be tough to find one that is a dead on match. Still looks good tho!

Did you buy a clear alternatives kit? Thats the kit im getting. I just picked up a 05 R6 last week. Bike prices are AWESOME in the middle of december :D . Spring can't come soon enough now.

Looks like a STLPC/HACSTL bike meet is in order come spring.
Who wants to ride my Honda while I ride the Victory?
