    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I was able to spend the holiday weekend at home so I took advantage and reassembled my HJC helmet after having it painted, I took some quick pictures of it before I left home again.

Whattaya think?

The only other thing I should have done is paint the vent screens black and outline them in black.
 
DANG, NEVER THOUGHT TO PAINT MY HELMET, AWESOME IDEA. im all over this......:D

It all started from a conversation that 1100E and I had about an original Bell Star helmet from a 1982 promotional deal where they would give you the helmet with the purchase of the bike.

Just so you'll know, these helmets are a pain in the butt to disassemble but even worse to reassemble, but I highly recommend it, it's your helmet make it yours!
 
I've been so wanting to do this but know nothing about painting. What paint/prep did you use/do? looks great.
 
Hi,

Yeah, I should have had the guy paint my helmet while he was painting my bike. Next time.

Your hat looks good. I think the metal vent screens look sharp.


Thank you for your indulgence,

A friend of mine does the painting for me, I tell him what I want, go out and buy the materials and give it all to him, this guy is an artist when I get home I'll have to see if I can scrounge up some pictures of his other work, it's great.
