New Norton helmet by Arai

too much money for me

But, it gave me the idea of spray painting my helmet flat black and then putting a gold Norton decal on it!
 
Nice, but.. I already have an Arai (expensive but worth it).
 
Looks very nice and I certainly wouldn't mind having one.

But it's quite expensive and I would only be able to wear whilst riding my Nortons.

Even worse, there is an equally attractive Ducati logo helmet, priced the same. I own two Ducatis so I would have to buy one of those too.

That's about $2000 USD and I just can't justify it. I could buy another pretty nice vintage Suzuki for that kind of money! :mrgreen:

Correction: the price on the Ducati helmet was in USD not GBP. So that would lower the cost somewhat. Still over my budget though.

Richard,

Nothing personal, but as moderator, I decided this topic didn't contain any actual Norton Commando content, (as it is really a thread about an Arai helmet).

The Norton Commando section is primarily intended for 'Norton Commando related topics' (however I will occasionally leave the odd off-topic thread in the "wrong" section if I see a good enough reason to do so).

If members access the forum using the http://www.accessnorton.com/ address, then they will arrive at the main forum index page, so no-one should miss any new topics, - whichever one of the five sections they are posted in?

I've just read it! I would think that these other boards are fairly well read? So keep us informed please Richard.
 
That's a nice-looking helmet, but a bit pricey.

I have an Arai Phil Read replica, which was less than half the price, and has a similar design, except for the 'Norton' logos and Union Jacks on the sides

I normally wear my Marushin 'Shivan' helmet when on the Norton, though. The red and black graphics with gold pinstriping match the color scheme of my bike
