I see one of these a few years back at a vintage motorcycle show , the spinning visor was meant to keep the rain off.

looks like a waterboarding technique who remembers crap 80's visors?the faster you went the more they moulded to your face

I just pass mine on to anyone that needs a helmet if there still ok or bin them if there worn out

I agree. If they've still got a bit of life left in them il keep hold of them for a mate or keep as a spare for pillions. My main helper I use now was donated to me by a mate.

One thing I can't start to see though is helmets at the local car boot. All beaten up and scratched. Who in the right mind entrusts their brain in them?

Though a colleague of mine has, at the last count, 11 old lids and 3 sets of 2 piece leathers in his loft, all expensive brands, all in perfect nick. Bit of a fashion victim and liked to have this years colour scheme etc and then wouldn't sell his old one because what he would get for them compared to what he paid for them would make him weep
