I've got a couple helmets that have passed their "use by" date. I wonder if there's anything creative I can make out of them. Maybe seal the bottom somehow and cut a slot into the tops of them and give them to my boys as piggy banks? Not a very secure piggy bank seeing how they can just lift the face shield to get to the cash. Man cave decorations? Throwing them out just seems so ... unappreciative.

Target practice? Plant flowers in them? I found this interesting use over on RideApart :

Set them up on the shelf for decoration and a reminder of the old days.

I have an old Hondaline full face from the early early '80's. The inside feels very hard. It was fun to wear at the MSF course, I think it was older than one of the instructors.
