I saw waht appeard to be a vintage Bonneville in NYC yesterday, but it is hard to tell from a half block away. The guy had on a great looking helmet. It was red with a wide white stripe up the middle. I thought I saw one for sale on the web last year, but can't find it. I guess I can have one painted on, but was wondering if anyone has ever seen anything like this for sale.

Thanks.

Was it a Davida perhaps? Check out the attached site and click the helmet icon. http://www.davida.co.uk/dealers/dealer.php?id=120

You can see the product line and order Davida helmets from www.glorysales.com located in Los Angeles. They sell a lot of retro stuff..goggles, gloves, etc. and the site is fun to browse. Disclaimer: I have no vested interest in Glory at all!

Not sure if I qualify for a "retro" guy, or simply forgot to update my style since the late 60's 70's!!?? I have a Davida helmet and like it, red/white and blues. Best one I ever had, although I was partial to the Union Jack one I lost somewhere, anybody see it around?? I do have cool tennis shoes and haven't worn black lo-cut "Converse All Stars" for a long time now. Heck, this dang site is full of retro guys and gals. I'm just a kid in comparison to those old fogeys. Poor people, I feel kinda sorry 'em.
