Helmets in Kawasaki Colours

Postby Bogan » Wed Jun 13, 2007 10:28 am

Am I dreaming? I'd really like to find a predominantly white helmet with some Kawa green and blue to match my ZXR when I buy it. Is it not going to happen? My other options are the green Arai or a Stoner replica, but I'm not sure whether Nolans fit my head (this will be easy to find out).

There's not much of a range it seems in plain looking tricolour helmets, any ideas people?

Custom paint at $750 on top of the helmet price is not an option :shock:.

HJC used to make a green graphic one, but no blue I don't think, What about an old Nakano replica from his Kwaka days

If there are any still available you should look at the Yanagawa replica helmets. I think they were Shoi??
I still think they were one of the better looking helmets around.
Remember, half the people you know are below average.

Unfortunately it seems that both HJC and Shoei have cut all the green helmets from their 2007 ranges. There may still be old stocks around bike shops so if you really want it rush out and buy one! :?

What price you looking at, ARAI have a few reps (Nakano) but you're looking at $1000.

Yeah that's a bit much, will make do with my old lid for the time being and then probably get oe of the Arai green camo ones when I'm a bit richer. Thanks tho :).

I got this one last year to replace my ageing RF800 http://www.motorcyclehelmet.com/shoei-r ... e-tc-4.asp" target="_blank. Very good helmet IMO. Comfortable, quite, light, good ventilation, easy visor system and matches the green accents of my bike.
I got a sweater for my birthday. I realy wanted a moaner or a screamer.
