Heres my new bonce.
Its a Sparco WTT (Wind tunnel tested)
As used by F1 drivers.

Such a good fit and the interior can be changed to suit your head shape (Diffrent cheek pieces ect)
It also has ear cups which allow for an intercom to be installed without it actually being able to be felt against your head.
And super quiet.

Awesome! How much did that set you back?

I thought I did good the other day picking up an Arai Condor for $399 at MCAS when the original rrp was $649. But your lid takes the cake! Can you paint those?

I treated the helmet laws as a rough guidline too when I bought my simpson bandit.
Unfortunately the coppers used a $100 fine last night as a rough guideline for not having an ADR approved helmet.

better a 100 buck helmet fine than the defect stickers i risk getting when i take my bike out... Its as safe as houses just doesnt need the acres of trash stuck to it that stockers need.

It even has blinkers and that says a lot

Did that fine come with any points?

No points that I can see on the infringement notice he wrote.
The worst part was the prick made me park the bike up at the booze bus and call a mate to come and bring me another helmet.

I'll just wear it during the day now and see how my luck holds out.
The guy was a real prick. I don't have any issues with coppers but he was just a fucking wanker.

Sorry to whore your thread Weasel.

Bitchin helmet by the way.

Ive seen a few helmets on ebay with blinkers. $1600 is alot of dough for a throw away if you hit the tar. looks very unique tho

Champ im back on a bike after breaking my neck in a crash 2 and a bit months ago.
The reason im still walking the earth was because i dont skimp on helmets.

So 1600 aint alot for the ability to walk after smashing your head into a steel upright
