QuoteDisclaimer --- Predator helmets are not designed as crash protection and are not certified in any way

Look deeper into the site. They are real... real crap. They are just fiberglass shells with tiny little view ports.

Hello?  How could anyone think that was a good idea?

Oh! I know! Another brilliant idea from the 5mph boulevard pozer crowd...

"He's an @$$hole too, sir.  Gunner's mate, first class, Philip @$$hole."

"How many Assholes do we have on this ship?"

*most raise hands*  "Yo!"

"I knew it!  Im surrounded by Assholes!"  *drops face shield*  "Keep firing, Assholes!"

Yikes, I haven't seen that movie in years, and I can still quote it.   :o

I've been waiting a long time for thunderchild to set up shop in the US. their helmets are kickass fighter style. I really really want the diversion or maybe the flipup boxer.

I think they're supposed to be ugly.  After all, who saw Predator and said "now that's a good looking dude"...

:dunno:

Not that bad if you ask me.  But obviously the lack of safety make it useless.

ASLAM.

Ok, this is a preview of what yer face will look like when you go down face-first on the asphault. But hey what about that neat Yammy with the predator headlight cover? I think they beat the heck out of a G-Bush helmet and headlight cover. Go kiss yer bike and say a kind word to somebody on this forum today.

I've been drooling over Roof Helmets for years.  A Red/White Daytona has been calling my name.

Heres a site :

http://www.designerhelmets.com/

They will send them over the pond but with the exchange rate where it is, $450 USD for a helmet I can't try on in person it's pretty much out of my price range.  Maybe with some local distributors they will tap into the US market soon.  :dunno:

hey pdg I drooled over the Roof's for awhile as well. Even had my mom look for one while over in France but she could only find Lazer's.

Don't hold your breathe on a dealer in the US. Tricktape did handle them but they stopped because of the depreciation of the US dollar. Also these helmets are not DOT approved (even tho they would probably exceed even the Snell standards) and that would make potential dealers nervous. Now if we could somehow convince Roof to start marketing over here I think they'd be a huge success.
