velofish Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Was shopping for a new helmet and, as always, looked for a Joey Dunlop replica. The Good news-- Arai is making a new run of thier Corsair helmets in Joeys' signature pattern. The bad news-- It's a limited run of 500 worldwide. A little too rich for my blood. www.TheVisorShop.com $873 USD Anybody wanna buy a kidney? fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Minnaert Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Show a little respect to yer maun Enough respect for Joey. But does that mean I have to find it a good looking helmet? But feel free to paint your bike in Joey colors. Or v8 green:-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My preference is for white helmets, but I would approve of zinc-chromate-green (but even that is almost yellow!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velofish Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 Does any of the money go to Joey's family ??? 85785[/snapback] As I recall, yes, an unspecified percentage goes to the widow Dunlop. I like the helmet, but I am a huge fan of Joey. Even so, too expensive for me. A weird thing, people actually sell used helmets on e-bay. One seller even stated that the helmet had been dropped during a move. With the abundance of good, cheap, new helmets, who the hell is buying used ones? Especially ones that have been dropped. fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
