Premier helmets

Post by Kev L »

Anyone ride a 70's bike? Probably suit a red/yellow/silver/black/green Storm rider too as the performance levels would be similar!
Premier are manufacturing a replica of their 70's full face helmet. Now you can experience the noisy, ill fitting joy aligned with a visor that at the slightest provocation flips over the rear of the titfer, marvellous. And the added bonus of spending £199 for the privelige -

Nice colour schemes though.

I will be in after a couple of new crash hats in the new Year but think I will give these a miss.
I remember the old Premier lids well. Seam running down the middle, ill fitting, noisy and just Cr*p..similar to our "Stadium" lids.if anyone remembers them too. :thumbdown:

I had a Kangol full face, think it was a speedmaster, which fitted your description well. To be fair to Premier they are owned by a different company now and these are only part of their range, made specifically for the retro market.
