Usually it is all about Rossi helmet, but what do you think of the special Barcelona helmet of Lorenzo?

HJC LORENZO BARCELONA 2013 - Champion Helmets

HJC Jorge Lorenzo Barcelona helmet 2013
Jorge Lorenzo has revealed the helmet design with which he will ride this weekend’s Catalan Grand Prix.

The pattern for this special Lorenzo Barcelona helmet was put together by down syndrome sufferer Anna Vives, a well-known personality in Catalunya who has invented her own font.
 
Too much goin on for my taste. However, the rpha line has definitely boosted the hjc line, both in reputation and sales. It still isn't known as a premiere brand but definitely not the cheap .... it used to be known for. I haven't found one I liked yet. Maybe the spies texas one a year or two ago.
 
Errr. I can't bring myself down to buy an HJC, KBC, Icon or Bilt helmet, no matter who wears or how pretty it is. Cool graphics though.
 
Not my fav. :(

Duc, another thread that would be a great addition to the Gear section! ;)
 
I wouldn't buy this helmet design, but after reading the back story on it, I can't slag on it.

A quote from Lorenzo in the Yamaha press release following the Catalunya Grand Prix:

"The girl who designed my helmet, Anna Vives, is famous in Spain; she is a symbol that people with Down syndrome are capable of a lot more than some people think. I think it was very original and colourful so I was very proud and happy to have her on the podium to share the win with me."
 
lots going on with that helmet too much for my taste. Respect the hell out of the helmet though from the story behind it.
MM had a new helmet on too.
 
Not a bad helmet, I have one of his X-lite replicas. I am curious as to why he went from X-lite to HJC though.
 
The helmet looks cool IMO. Watching J-Lo during the podium ceremony gave me a new found respect for the guy. Solid dude!

What? Seriously?

It's called EUROS, and many zeros behind a number... :D

If you watched Mat Mladin in his last years of Superbike, he changed from Joe Rocket to KBC to Scorpion helmets. That's when those helmets were total CRAP IMHO. But he was making $4 Million a year plus endorsements, which can double a rider's effective income.

HJC is the largest helmet producer in the world by pure production volume, I bet they are paying Lorenzo at least 1 million Euro a year to be their poster boy.
 
Hahahaha! That helmet is outtahand! Another case of "looked better in my head", the idea is great, just execution not so great!!

Seriously guys did you watch it....read Jeff D's comment, the girl who designed it has downs syndrome.

I 've a lot of respect for Lorenzo after yesterday with that young girl on the podium, lifting her up probably made here year. I like the helmet and story behind it makes it that much better! RESPECT...

Lorenzo killed it yesterday, he's a class act on the bike, I cant see him losing it this year...

Sorry, I didn't see JeffD's comment...but it looks like my thoughts were correct on who would design a helmet like that.:) Very cool that she designed this for Jorge.
 
I just bought the lorenzo replica, and after one ride, my impression is that it can hang with the lower end arai. My only criticism is that on the street it didn't flow much air.

I am usually a self admitted label whore, by I took a leap on this HJC, and I think that it is much better than most are giving it credit for
