SIMPSON BANDIT FIRST GEN HELMET

[78whiteorbs]

Not perfect by any means but inside is in good shape (missing the crown foam but easy enough to improvise) buckle is in good shape , small chips and whatnot but it still looks menacingly slick.

40 Bux plus actual shipping takes it .

Also that vinyl stripe I added, it is a color flipping root beer vinyl ,I can stripe it anyway you like it or remove it . I personally dig it but each there own.

I loved my model 72 Simpson (precursor to the Bandit) and I still have it but I would never wear it again. The polystyrene liner in a helmet (the part that protects your head) breaks down from all sorts of factors and renders the helmet useless.

It will look good on a shelf, but not on your head.

any news?,

Saucer, pm'ed you man - I am on it !

Terry K- same reasoning I give for not wearing condoms

actually I am inclined to agree but hey look at the new builtwell helmets ,none of those are DOT aprroved and would prolly crack like a goose egg but I would wager that they dont have a problem selling them - Old stuff is cool but it is old-


Personally I almost always wear a full face(brand new) helmet. They never match my old bikes but I am not checking myself out in any mirrors when I am cruising.
