I would love to be able to just find one matching my bike color scheme...

I understand painting helmets is a big no-no, and can understand why HD does not provide them (too many choices to be able to please folks...).  But a full face, flip up, helmet with my CVO color scheme would look great!


I got close to the color scheme for my bike off the shelf -it is a lot lighter when the sun hits it -  get a lot of positive comments on it.  Custom paint job would be nicer - but that is too much dough!

I have one that matches my bike. I would rather match my bike then match my passenger

Several years ago myth busters did a heat thing regarding white and black helmets, Snell approved. I have always worn flat black helmets and still do, wife wears gloss as that is what she wants. But back to reason for post, I thought the black would be noticeably hotter, NOT the case. Seems the stryofoam does not absob or transfer the heat thru to your skull. Only thing hotter was the outer shell - no difference inside the liner. So wear whatever brand/color you want makes no difference on heat on your head.
