I have never been a brand whore nor bothered buying top end helmets. I saw this online, $250 to my door. Does anyone have an opinion on them? Made by whoever, they don't say, but marketed by suzuki.

There was only one MED available an a few smalls so I grabbed the MED. If it doesn't fit me you might see it forsale here lol. Though I am a med, or a small in some HJC helmets. There are other places selling these too, aparently they sold for a lot more a few years back but now are clearance items. The colour matches my bike well so I "HAD" to buy it hey Pi_tongue

Here is mine again at another shop.

They might not have an aussie sticker on them but I'm sure a creative bloke could manage to fix that hey Coolsmiley

No way. When they come off they leave the backing behind wih the word 'void'.
Now I have... But where there is a will (and google) there is a way lol.

I found that same image, but still haven't found anyone who will supply them. But let me know when you do!
I believe that guy got busted for his efforts. Now I'm going to try a hairdryer, will report back soon.

:- Scratch the hairdryer idea... ???
Now before I go any further I wish to state that the following is a possible proceedure I would use, if I were to have an Australian certified helmet custom painted and I needed to remove and replace the sticker.

The Original Again

Now obviously there is some more work to be done here and the last option may not be the best. But we are on the right track I think.
hey gringo.. do u have any other before/after shots where the pics are actually different? the ones u posted are the exact same pic before and after... check reflections
If you keep it quiet I know exactly where to get them. PM me for more details......

Have another look, the "after" is the one with the sheet of alfoil, not the last pic. The last pic is simply there for comparison. I wouldn't use alfoil but that shiny silver Xmass paper say. It looks the same and is made of plastic. The trick would be getting a good clear glue to use between the two.

Anyway, it's all hypothetical.
