Wink What every Motorsport colors rider should have

I just came across the newly released helmet by Shark. It looks insane!! And the colors just go so well with the go faster motorsport colors!! Imagine how faster one would go if the helmet had the same combination

Cheers!

I had a Shark helmet years ago and the overriding memory was of a roomy lid with a very deep chin bar which came very close to my chin. I have an Arai shaped head if it helps.

This design looks very similar to BMW's own 'Double R' helmet.

I have been looking into the Shark Race-R Pro. Unfortunately it's not available in the USA at the moment as (I believe) it is not DOT certified.

They have another color scheme that I think matches even better than that model.

I guess they do list this as "orange" but to me it's still a great match.

Sorry, even Shoei has covers for the sides of the shield. this helmet just looks cheap, and the lack of DOT cert, well........ But yes, the colour scheme is awesome.

I posted this before, but here's my new Shoei X-12 that matches pretty well. Great helmet!
