Finally rotated out the last embarrassingly outdated helmet in my fleet and replaced with this Black Friday special, a Scorpion T510. I figured I should have something on my head that is hi-viz for the days when I'm commuting with a dark colored jacket.
Funny thing is, I've always worn size XL Scorpions. I ordered this one in XL, but they sent me an XXL. It's very comfortable, and I didn't notice until I looked at the tag. Makes me think that this one runs small, and that an XL would have been too tight. How did they know?...
Going with my theme of racing liveries on helmets, I've got some black reflective tape that I'll use to put a few stripes on it, then think of a yellow/black racing team... AGIP maybe?
That scooped shape chin will present a challenge for a GoPro mount. I'll have to break out the JB Weld and so some more Redneck 3D modelling. That will be a fun Saturday project.
