It's a bit to "Top Gun" ...Mach 3..bomb the bastards

If you wear it people will wonder if you Moose Head or Ice Man?
There's got to be a Brit equivalent :cool:

hmmm a bit adolescent, IMO. although not as naff as an airbrushed Simpson.

when you crack as many as the boy you take all the support you can get,regardless of skin colour.

I will not cause offence by commenting on the eyesore for it may suit x

I think it will match the lovely blues and reds in your rugby top thing very nicely.

i quite like it, wouldn't wear it myself but its nice to finally see a recognisable design on a lid, not just some swirly shapes and marks in various colours like it means something. Plain is always a winner compared to them. Just what the hell do arai and the rest think they are doing with crap like http://www.sportsbikeworld.co.uk/Reviews/crash-accident/pics/arai-2.jpg
cos there's so many leathers and bike designs that would suit it so well ? Even rossi ones are bit on the stupid side and 99% of people buy them because its a rossi lid and the rest of their pimpled mates on scooters will think they are cool.

I'll shut up.

Although I quite like airbrushed lids when done with style, I much prefer plain colour schemes - especially on Simpson's. My favourite being the new Bandit Outlaw in white :cool:

I also like the Roof range with the swivel chin bar - although deffo not in YELLOW (sorry Mand) :p

Definite fan of the Roof Boxer :cool: - except that every time I try one on, the blasted thing don't fit, as the chin bar is so close to my own chin that I can't open my mouth without contacting it - which is rediculous.
Who do they make these things for :confused: Chinless wonders :D

These would make you look like a Star Wars geek! Is it me? They look like a Stormtrooper rip-off and, some kind of baddie who wears black (not quite Darth Vader, but you know what I mean).

Plain lids, no lift up chin bit (it's for BMW riders), definitley NOT matching your bike (that's for Goldwings).

Hmm, I have a similar problem to Miles only in a melon head sort of way so that tends to choose the lid for me. Personally, I think the bomber motif is well suited to our american cousins, IMO that it needs small glass orbs over the ears, possibly mounted with guns. Do you get a free Japanese flag stamper so you can mark up your missons on your tank?
