They are cool looking, but the sad thing is that some fool has already paid that price for it. And if not they WILL

I will stick with my Biltwell. Comfortable and sweet looking. Bought mine from Licks Cycles, because I didnt know Spooner was right down the road, next time I will be hitting you up.

Biltwell helmets are worthless if you get on the highway. They don't have a firm enough fit to stay on. The wind starts pulling it off. Maybe a different story if you have a windshield. Good around town, as long as you dont get into a wreck that is.

Hey Mike, not to high-jack the thread but I didn't know you did pinstriping...looked at your work....VERY NICE!!! I don't know if you ever heard of a guy but he went by the name "Shakey Jake" (Charles, Chuck Babbitt) He was out here in So Cal...Costa Mesa I believe. Anyway he was HUGE in the VW scene in the late 60's and early 70's. HE was not only a fantastic striper but what a genuine nice person. I cant tell you how many times I saw him at VW, Porsche and bike shows and there he would be striping cars. There would be young kids hanging out and wanted their car and or bike striped by Shakey however they didn't have the full amount. I think back then it was 50- 60 bucks...nothing.... but they didn't have it. Shakey would ask...How much you got and many times he would stripe her out for next to nothing. Shakey became very ill with cancer and I remember him striping many of my cars as well as bikes and he would always simply sign his name on the bottom..."Shakey Jake" In his final days Shakey would comically put....
"Shakey Jake is Still Alive". He lost his his life to cancer in October 87. WOW...sorry for rambling, I saw your striping, it brought back fond memories!!

Nice but not my cup of tea. Plus for the price they must be crazy.
