This is for all you old school members....

She has been a long time coming but the infamous yellow helmet is being retired.

It has been replaced by a newer model (unfortunately they had no yellow ones) and will now occupy a place on the shelf and shall inspire a smile whenever I see it.

It may on the rare occasion come out of retirement but not in the forseeable future... and probably occompanied by the mighty if rarely seen yellow mowhawk.

Get some of that stick on vinyl from a sin writing company and give it some racing stripes. I understand that racing stripes on a helmet are worth an extra 5hp at the rear wheel. :laugh:

Nope sold em awhile ago.... including the flouro yellow inner liner with orange triming. I gots a good pic of that to but don't think I want it on here.

So THATS why nobody would ride with me:bleh:

On a seperate but slighty related note, teaching a mate to ride her ginny 250 and so have to ride it to the parking lot and such. And am surprised how few bikers give me the nod or wave compared to when I'm riding the beast?? curious:msn-wink:
