glad I could help !!!
at times, my sense of humor can be a little 'bent'...
but, I have learned that I like laughing a lot more than frowning |

I totally understand the need for cool helmets. Don't want to look like one of those ridiculous Spandex superheros while going down the road, or look like you have a crow's skull taped on backwards to your head. 
I use a Fatigue green Giro "Bad Lieutenant" helmet with a pair of Spookytooth's Bobster Bugeye goggles. I've gotten a lot of comments from random folks about just how awesome my headgear is. Technically this is a downhill skiing helmet, but they have a ton of padding inside a PVC casing (With a nice leather or canvas cover), and they look like the old Army Steel pot helmets! You can even get a Giro "Tune-Ups" kit, for those that want to listen to their iPods, or must talk on their phone. This sucker has protected my head from many a bad downhill skiing crash (Including a nasty face plant that screwed up my neck for two weeks). The googles are nicely padded and rubber, but I may go with a pair of aviator style goggles in the future as these look a bit small on the helmet.
And to whoever posted that Aviator helmet and goggles: That is bloody awesome!!! I love the wings! It looks like something you SHOULD wear on a motorized bicycle! When I do replace my helmet I may just get one of those! Are they DOT approved?
Keep on riding! ~Dakota Lynx  |

Dakota,, I agree The one I got kinda looks like that,, German type helmet, with the Grim Reaper on it,, DOT approved also!
2Door. Those are AWESOME!! But a bit out of my price range. I actually do have an old Helicopter helmet,, supposidly from the Viet Nam era. I wore it for Halloween this year. I was going to wear my tankers helmet,, but it was too small. I collect helmets among other things | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
