I believe there are others who think it's cool. Agreed. I've got friends who probably think that helmet is the shit. Meanwhile I'm thinking that no self-respecting rider is going to wear that goofy piece of junk. Hell I think the graphics on my Shoei are way too loud, but beggars can't be choosers and I couldn't pass up the deal on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm just as much if not more of a cynical asshole than the next guy, but I really can't wrap my head around someone taking a motocross visor and super-gluing it to their street helmet on purpose.

V4junkie Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 +2 on the murdered out look! I'm not a fan Icon's lids. Correct me if I'm wrong but arent they made by HJC? Or at least the shell construction is?Not to my knowledge. I know Joe Rocket helmets definitely are.In independent tests the Icons always got good ratings for protection. Mine's also real quiet. I like loud graphics http://www.pro1powersports.com/products/Icon_Death_From_Above_Motorcycle_Helmet-4866-183.htmlHowever the helmet in the OP is . . . indefensible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboy1011 Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 squids wear helmets?! Icon does push the envelope with some stuff... but I like my Icon helmet murdered out ftw! +1 "all black everything" :smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jermattak Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm just as much if not more of a cynical asshole than the next guy, but I really can't wrap my head around someone taking a motocross visor and super-gluing it to their street helmet on purpose.not much harder to believe than people replacing bar ends and windscreen screws with 1 inch spikes, or adding a 3rd wheel to a busa (yes this is real, and people obviously think its cool, because its in super streetbike) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheech Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I will never forget stopping for gas at the Speedway next to Iron Pony with gsxr750girl and ross, some random guy was asking us about our bikes. Couple real general "I love me some sportbikes, dawg" statements, then the gem "y'all ever get into them 'busa's? I want to buy a bike and want to get me one of them..." Nevermind this dude was pushing 300 pounds, backwards hat with skull cap, the whole bit.I thought I was going to piss myself laughing.

Reimbrandt Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I checking out a black icon rubatone tomorrow night.... Figure I will leave it all black but add some small graphix to the helmet and then do a full visor, but I'm not going to drop the idea till I see if I can pull off the look I want.

Big Chief201 Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Gear is gear.. I like Icons jackets and some of their helmets are cool like the mechanica. I would never rock the helmet with spoilers but Id much rather ride with someone with a helmet then someone with out one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
