Japanese Santa Claus arrived early this year
I needed a new helmet (it seems my Snell 2000 Arai and Shoei from the early 2000's are too old to pass track scrutiny these days) and being a sucker for "official merchandise" I decided to scratch my Honda and Yamaha itches with these 2 official OEM parts.
I bought these direct from Japan and saved probably $400 each over an equivalent state side Arai purchase.
In the Yamaha camp - the official YEC color Aria RX7...
And for this years appropriately attired RS pilot, the HRC lid...
New YEC & HRC Helmets :)

Re: New Helmets :)
Great lids!
I didn’t even know that Yamaha/Honda had their own factory colours that are available.
I might need to get me a YEC RX7.....
Thanks for sharing. Lucky you.

Web!ke is a great place to spend money frivolously
I have resisted pre-ordering many special helmets over the years. IOM TT editions, RC30 anniversary helmet, NSR anniversary helmet and the list goes on.
I am glad I have not been bitten by the helmet collecting bug.
And even after they sell out, many appear for sale from vendors on Yahoo Auctions.

Re: New YEC & HRC Helmets :)
More helmet porn! Thanks.
An RC30 lid, WOW, I wish i had one of those when I owned that bike for nearly 10 years.
Nice to look at something slightly different and departing from the normally chosen.
Thanks.
