Arai introduces old classic designs for 2011...

The bumblebee is definitely my favorite race paint scheme. Unfortunately, my trackbike is silver with a red frame, and doing the fairing like that would make it look like someone vomited on it.
 
I've got a '92 FZR that's currently sporting the red/white scheme, but would look awesome in that yellow/black.

Ooh, that's nice. I'd paint a bike to match that one.

have you ever seen this bike? i think that helmet would go really nicely with it. there has never been any lust greater than the lust i've had for this one. it was on ebay once with a $30k reserve. a bit out of my reach.

That Bubba Showbert one caused drama. His painter here in the US was supposed to do all of his helmets. Nick shows up with that one that someone from Europe painted and his painter was pissssssssed. They finally parted ways after a long relation ship. I think Arai eneded up writing the painter a nice check. The painter did the Barbed wire Nicky Hayden and the one after. He also used to paint the brothers helmets, Jake Zemeke. Currently paints for Disalvo and Hayes.

Cool Guy. Cheap too.

Maybe RICH-art Concepts?

He's supposedly the "Troy Lee" of England and beyond.

Here's one of his Arai works...

Did they introduce a Quantum replacement for the round oval, or w/e the fuck the shape was that they discontinued that I wear?

"Why yes, officer, he was wearing a yellow and black helmet with a big #5 on the side of it, I believe that is the guy that was doing 150 mph past the hospital with all the orphans walking across the street!!!"

Never saw that one before, nice! Drudi comes up with so many wild designs, he did the Schwantz design, Masaki Tokudome, Edwards, Cadalora, Rossi etc. :thumbup
 
My fav. is the IOM helmet - but Arai's don't fit me like Shoei's do :(

Sorry for the repost but what store could I actually find this in around the south bay?
 
All of these look far better than the typical tribal tattoo bullshit that adorn too many helmets out there.
