Sorry, just a bit excited. Came out pretty good. Green is a little drab compared to what is on the bike, but close enough.

I wanted a cafe style helmet, but didn't want open face. So, I bought this one in all white, and had it done up custom. Only direction I gave him was that I wanted a flag checkered mohawk, with a pinstripe spade on the back. And to throw in 13, if there was room and it wasn't busy.

Heading out to go pick up a dark tinted shield over lunch. Stoked!

Mine was pretty cheap, actually. He quoted me $75 for all the painting. I gave him a bit more.

That looks great. I am not a fan of open helmets. My face is one of my favorite parts of my head.

Yeah, I was all set to buy an open face, cafe inspired, helmet. Then thought about using my chin as an eraser if I went down, and changed my mind. I knew it would be hard to find a helmet I liked, was comfortable, didn't get me too hot, yet was retro enough. After looking through tons of helmets, I decided to do this one in white and add my own vintage feel to it. Really happy with that decision, at this point.

Thanks for all the comments, guys!
