Helemt to match a 50th?

I know you should wear a helmet thats comfortable and fits your head blah blah blah...

but does anyone know or have any ideas for a great quality helmet to match a 50th? Ive seen the arai edwards but spending over 800 is absurd.

you gotta pay to play..... it's one of those things.. if you want something to match better have the cash to fork... ask any female out there.. they will tell you that the bag has to match the shoes... LOL

I was actually looking at that agv. Seems like the only other match besides the edwards.

Get the Arai Edwards. Its worth every penny!!! Very comfortable (I can sleep with it on) and matches the bike perfect.

Re: Helemt to match a 50th?

i ordered the Rossi AGV Gothic helmet in YELLOW....all the pics also looked yellow but when it arrived it was DAY GLOW YELLOW.....since it didnt come close to matching and it practily glowed in the dark I ordered 50th Ann paint from colorrite and in the process of custom painting it.......i need to trim alittle more and then clearcoat but I will get pics up....It looks amazing so far and turned out way better than I ever expected
