    what to do when your bored with a black helmet

    my friend tony's helmet (fzr400tony) was getting a little banged up, he's probably going to replace it next year, but was wondering what we could do to it, i was like rockstar energy drink! you'll probably never run into anyone else wearing one, (and since they are decals, they can be removed any time)

    i made all the pinstriping by hand in adove illustrator and everything was printed on a black background to blend into the black helmet

    stickers or not

    Any Arai helmet is a good helmet.....I understand the competition has gotten better but I always like my Arai helmets -more comfortable and cooler on hot days....for me

    watched a kid buy a "graphic's" helmet the other day at a dealer - over $450! and it was not even an Arai....

    so far a couple comments locally on the helmet, seems everyone likes the old style numbers and old school pinstripes. i thought about changing up the arai logo, well just the stripe around it to be some thin criss crossing pinstriping

    Beau, you just can't rush perfection.

    Only one major task left, then she's ready to roll.

    eMule, aren't they concerned about them trying to pull copy right infringements on them for using their logo
