I'll be glad to see it on somebody. It can look real cool in a picture.
Skullscreamers is a good site. I like the "drive-by" or the "7.62" designs.

You should check out the bell drifter.
Has anyone seen this helmet in person. I'm thinking about getting one but not sure. It looks like it may not be as "gazoo" like as other DOT Helmets.
Just curious if anyone has one and what they think compared to other DOT helmets.

I bought the Drifter this weekend.
Kinda looks like a smaller, thinner GI Kevlar helmet.

Definitely not Gazoo or Mushroomy.

I got theblack canvas covered one and took a
permanentblack marker to the embroidered flaming skull
to make it not so, ummm, stand out-ish.(?)

Other than that, I really like it.

So where is the best place to get a regular brain bucket as you will call it. Of course the HD shop or any other bike shop wont carry them. You put on the DOT approved ones they sell, and they just look rediculous on your head.

great place. They have all you need for the skid lid style!!

and I have tried on that drifter after my state is crackin down on the non dot helmets and thought it was very gazoo-like. My girl looks right at me and said " uh NO" so i put it back down and moved on trying on DOT approved lids. Had luck with one cause I gutted it to make it sit lower on my head. only use that on on occasions though. Brain bucket/skid lid it is for me till I rack up too many tix

i like that full metal jacket helmet, would only wear on special occasions though, the skull helmet might be cool for halloween other then that its a bit much... i wear the jockey style turned backwards cus it fits better andi dont like how the wind catches thebrim when turned forward.
