This is a helmet a friend of mine just bought. I thought some of you would appreciate it.

His girlfriend bought it for him from some place in Brazil. This is used for drift events BTW. There is no way in hell I would wear that thing on a bike.

I can't imagine you would be able to wear it for long. I don't see much ventilation.

Two things:

1.) SURELY that thing's not DOT/Snell rated?

2.) Can you imagine the wind buffeting? Helmets don't get much less aerodynamic than that!

Those points aside, it looks freakin' awesome!

I'm trying to imagine what kind of peripheral vision you'd have with that thing on your head. Of course, the answer would be "None."

I bought that helmet last year, rode all around with it ... vision really isn't that bad .... high speeds suck .... vents pretty well, under the chin ... more than a real helmet actually ...

But anyone that mistakes it for something other than novelty ...well ...
