Anyone got the Bell Custom 500 helmet?

Tonight when I get home from work I'll be picking up a set of shiny new shells for my EUC, and since it's a color change (from black to white) I'll obviously need a new helmet as well!

So I started looking around on the electric internet and stumbled upon this beaut: http://lovelustfashionbeautyromance.tumblr.com/post/157687223404

So what do you say? Should I buy it? Anyone got this helmet?

I've seen some moped helmets similar to that one but with a half face swivel up visor.  I think it would be nice to be able to move it up if needed.

I guess you have a point. The visor is detachable, though. And there are half-visors available as well (for when you want to be able to eat all the ice creams).

But you just gotta love this retro design, right?! :D

It is a nice design, almost Daftpunkish.  Check out this thread:

EDIT:  Oh right, you posted in that thread just a couple of replies down!  :lol:  I think I must have subliminally planted the idea in your head, and it just slowly grew over the months... :whistling:

Yes the thread felt sort of familiar, haha!

There are some good looking options in that thread as well, but there's just something about the design of this Bell that calls out to me. Maybe I'll get it later in the year, when the cold starts to creep in.
