I don't know if it's any good but it looks sick.
Looks like something Boba Fett would wear.
It's a Schuberth S1 carbon - nice! (BMW just rebadge them)
I'd gladly donate but I gave all I could for an engagement ring ;D

Are you sure about that? The shell looks to be a different shape. The Schuberth is said to weigh ~1300 grams, the BMW less than 1000 grams. I don't think its the same helmet.
Joe Rocket makes a CF lid. I believe it is a rebadged HJC. $350 online;

Not as cool as the BMW, but way cheaper. I've tried it on and it somewhat fits like an old SHoei helmet (which is what I have). I checked it out because my full face helmet it old (like 8 years old), but I decided to spend my motorcycle cash on stuff that really matters -- new pipes and a billet pressure plate for my Monster!
Nice lid. I don't think I'd get one but it's pretty striking. I just got a new Shoe X-11 and it's much better than the Arai it replaced.

The BMW rep told me that all BMW helmets were Schuberth, we don't have Schuberth down here in Australia so I asked him to see 'one of the rebadged Schuberth' to which he replied that all of them were!

Vemar's carbon fiber is pretty sweet as well. But $1,000.... :o
