I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

I like my Arai Retro Corsa Quantum II.  I'll keep using it as long as possible.  I have the $$$ to get a new one, but just can't find one I like.







That's a great looking Arai, I wish we had that graphic here.
There is something similar but it is a little darker than this version.

I had a Icon Mainframe matte black but was never happy with the comfort
Then I got a shoei rf-1000 Diabolic 1
Not too crazy but my wife was following me home from San Diego and she really liked the visibility of of the graphics
The brighter helmets catch the eye and seem a safer choice for me
Any advantage I can get on the road I'll take!

I couldnt find anything either, so I bought a joe Rocket, sanded off the paint job and painted it myself. Actually pretty proud of it for the first one ive done. Whuch you guy think? I cant take credit for the theme obviously, but for a simple design it gets a lot of comments.

what can I say, I'm a sucker for the Ducati swag

I like some of Arai's simpler graphics, but then they put their badge on the helmet in 54 places!   Jeez.

Do you think that's an anti-fog visor?  I don't see any vents either.

stickers from here would be cool.  I'd sand the new helmet, tastefully apply a sticker or two, and paint checkerboard for drama.  Clear coat it, and it's done.  When's the board bling coming so we can do this?
Frickin' snow!

This is what I want....monsters all over!!  [thumbsup]  But alas, only the under 12 set can wear this helmet, youth sizes only.  :(

Can you imagine a world without a Ducati???  I think it's called Hell. :)
