Nolan N30

The only person I could convince to pose with my helmet is not very photogenic. So for the safety of others, warn pregnant women, small children and those with heart conditions to avert their eyes.

I was selling my Davida, googles, and mask last year. Had no takers then, I still have them (for sale). Worn twice.

I have a buco 3/4 that I got off of ebay...I love it. It's the only 3/4 that isn't huge. And they're relatively cheap...Met safety standards for the 70's. Cars have actually gotten lighter since then, so I figure I'm good.

I agree with everything Johhny has to say about this lid. I have it...its the one i use all the itme. The ear thingy is good for those chilly morning runs to work...i have the visor on just about all the time. It keeps the bugs out of my face. It will take goggles just fine.

Fulmer makes some great - very reasonably priced DOT approved open face retro style helmets...

I have the one with the american flag at the moment (though I may buy a few more, they are under 100 bucks so nbd to have a few laying around)

Gorgeous helmet. I've got a few friends that stripe, and I want to do the same.

Is the bike in the thumbnail yours? Any other pics of it?

yeah it's one of my bikes. here is a camera phone pic(the only one i have at work) of it.

i painted the tank in the front yard, and need to get a rear fender going, but the bike gets the job done.
