For us that are forced/want to wear a helmet. A helmet is a helmet is a helmet. Quit worring about the minor chit and go ride.

First of all, that guy now has to alcohol bath that seat or burn the whole bike. For some reason, I dont think she is German.

I didn’t know helmets could join the NSDAP, they let anyone in now..

History Lesson #1

NSDAP (****) is a Political Party not an army or a country. It’s like saying the US Military is the Democrat Army since they are the majority right now in office.

History Lesson #2

The German Army of WWII was the Wehrmacht (Heer, Luftwaffe the SS was not part of the Wehrmacht). The German helmet you refer to was from WWI called the M16 Stahlhelme, different models know as the M35, M40 etc. for WWII
