that would seem to apply more appropriately if he were racing a Moto Guzzi...or is it just me?

maybe if you take it literally...

if you take it from the "my bike pulls like a..." viewpoint, it's perfectly appropriate.

I personally think a tractor reference is more appropriate for Lamborghini or Harley Davidson...

Cool helmet.

lambo...?

oh.  duh.  i was thinking purely about torque.

I wish they would sell race replica helmets like this one. Most of the rider themed helmets are too crazy for my taste...but I'd buy one like that (for a resonable price, not a one-off price).

I dig the tractor.

sometimes they do. most of rossi's "one off" helmets have been offered for sale.

I'm just never (or rarely) moved by replicas.  At least that doesn't look like someone puked on it, but it's still too much.  Why don't people ever realize that simple is better and more stylish?  If he's only done the cross-hairs and Monza, I might like it. 

Other than the Rossi face helmet (which is hysterical) and mebbe that AGV ago replica, there are very, very few helmets--even one-offs--worth talking about.  IMO, of course.  And unless y'all wanna take this thread to convince me otherwise (hint, hint, hint -- pics of cool race helmets, puh-lease  )

So this is not going for sale?

This is the first replica I really like
