    I keep my old 'helmet' in my pants and there's no way ANYONE is going to do THAT to it.

    Unless I'm dead of course, then it's open season.

    I have only been rding forty some years, and a good aprt of that we didn't use helmets. So I haven't gotten to the stage of having any old unused ones yet.

    I have a white helmet, and a black adventure helmet, both of which I use. I have my old FFM Mach I , still in use as a spare/pillion lid. And my old green Jet helmet, from the days before full face helmets were invented, which I now use on the pushbike.

    Prior to that I had a red helmet, which I sold with a bike (back when they weren't legally required), a grey helmet which some idiot stole when I left it (and the bike) by a trail. Which was pretty stupid cos the back of it was all buggered where it hit a rock. And my original Corker SkidLid which I also gave away with a scooter I sold back in the mid 60s sometime.

    But if I hang around long enough to actually have a "retired' helmet I'll bear the idea in mind.

    Those look cool, but why only with an old, retired helmet? Why not do that to a normal helmet? I would imagine nobody will pull out in front of someone wearing one of those!
