I gotta new insulated shirt too, would you care to see that?[/QUOTE]

Sorry not looking for smart *** replies. The point of this was simply to show off the work of a buddy of mine who stripes, and kinda show what you can do with a relatively plan helmet. If I want smart *** replies I'll go to a sportbike forum.

Will take some pictures of it on my head whenever I get a chance...unless ill be beating a dead horse even more...which as fast as things move on this forum there is no such thing as a new topic

Ok I appologize. I just can't get too excited about a helmet...even if it has a cool paint job. How about putting that on your bike instead, and taking a pic of that and showing us?

Like the helmet and I always like to see pics of whatever anybody wants to show off. But at least one smart *** reply per thread is required on here. I'm sure I read that in the rules somewhere.

That is true, Article four, subsection two, clearly states: Any helmet thread will be subject to at least one smart assed comment, two or three ARE permitted if said helmet is orange and/or pinstriped.

I don't go around just making these things up you know!

Still like the style, orange just isn't my color. The pin stripin looks good except from the front... almost looks like a ***** on yer fore head. Not diggin the tat too much... kinda looks simple with too much color.

JMHO, don't be offended...
Wow, thanks for your opinion?

Damn.

Definitely ***** like, but don't be self conscious, probably no one else will notice.
