never heard of it, but it looks cool 8)
Really cool helmet but, likewise, never heard of the make, and it's not - as far as I know - approved for use in the UK.
Shame though, I really posey lid for a Tiger rider 8)
Very cool, would love that for the UK

Right up to the moment you meet another Tiger rider wearing one and encounter the long embarrassed silence and averting of eyes.....

Except we have both never heard of the make and the seller is in California! I'm happy to take the risk, if I could decide which size to buy :?
This is inspiring, I'm off to see my local airbrush man since I have a next to new HJC CS-MX that I got cheap but didn't like the colour sitting in the corner doing nothing :lol:
Tried to buy that helmet, and got a message that says the seller is no longer a registered user, what does that mean? Clicked on the item and it says it's been withdrawn? Very confused.

Means he's a bad boy and Ebay have banned him.

ERR, he is a she and e bay have locked her account! We'll try again if it gets sorted, but not until.
Its just as good, that helmet is FUGLY! LOL
Well I've gone and done it, googled as many pics of Tiger heads as I could and went to the shop yesterday. Discussed, agreed on a figure and delivery late Dec.
I don't know why that got me going but I just felt compelled to do it, even went to the extend of sourcing some pink goggles with quick straps so that it'll at least have the same colour as the tongue. I must be mad but I'm going to blame EB :lol:
Let's see how it works out.
had this airbrushed onto a helmet a long time ago and it was sealed in clearcoat ...has held up well .
It is still my favorite helmet to wear .

My plan is to get one of these Shoei Hornets in matt gunmetal grey:

Then have a copy of the Girly's tank stripes painted on the sides in Girly orange. Just gotta get the cash together... :roll:

That is a nice lid Bob, I was tempted myself, I think it'll look good "Tigerised", just happened to have the HJC lying around. I like the ability to take the skip off and have a normal visor but I think I'd miss my flip.
Why don't you try vinyl stickers for the stripes instead, that way you can experiment with colour, shape and position without doing anything permanent to the helmet.

Good idea. I have a friend who's into that stuff so will give him a ring. :wink:
Im thinking of going 'retro' and sticking one of these on my lid! :D

I dont normally go for 'loud' paintjobs on lids but I actually like the one originall;y posted - much to the disgiust of t'other half! :D
I saw a pic of a US T rider with a white lid that he had a red white and blue wavy slash that started at the chin bar offset to one side and went over the top widening until it melded into a full union jack at the rear.
That's the best I can describe it, looked really cool, wish I had saved a copy of the pic.
