Here is the new Rossi helmet for 2013. This design will replace the elements design. What do you guys think, hot or not??

unfortunatly my 2013 does not include this helmet capt i have 3 helmets now almost bought 2 more and i only have one head. I have to tighten my belt make more sacrifices and give my money to the government
instead of buying this masterpiece of art.seriously though. i actually like the design and graphics of the helmet. Is this the new pista or old model of agv? doesnt matter either way with all that rossi mumbo jumbo on it it could be the michael angelo of helmets and i wouldnt get it.
ps i dont like any helmets with a guys number sayings or tributes to him. Just that every agv helmet does this. this paticular time i am not picking on the doctor.
pps if it were the 99 with the rock star or the 1 of stoner or the 93 of marquez i would make an exception.

Looks like US version will cost $1300
I got it for 1000.
I still more than likely get US version too for track.

For the public sale helmets, it will not have Yahama Logo, Monster Logo and number 46 etc.
I will try to see if I can find US Element version of Pista. If not, I may just get the CF version.
Good thing I have Element version Pista already but its European version.

Really it wont have those logos or the 46? then how is it a replica? just a question not an attack. i actully like the graphic . i like the corsa version of the pista in all black that helmet is sweetttttttt no 46 project all over it. has working vents etc . just hard for me to spend a G note on a helmet all 3 of mine were around 1100

Ok so the picture above IS actual Rossi helmet. I think this picture was taken at Qatar.
This is Not a replica.
You cant even buy any Pista US version except the CF 46 project one which does have 46 on it.
Correction on the price for US. It is $1400 for the CF 46 project pista helmet. I'm sure painted/designed one will cost more.

I've got a pista GP on the way in the elements scheme. Got it for $850 the fact that it isn't DOT approved doesn't bother me. I can't wait for it to show honestly it beat the hell out if waiting till October and spending $1400 on the project 46 one

let me go to the agv site and see whats available. its all of you guys faults cause you k now of my buying helmet problem. if i buy one you can split the cost evenly because you MADE ME DO IT. its only fair why should i be responsible for my own actions. in the US everyone blames everyone else and gets a bail out. im sure there is a democrat on here that will be more then willing to redistribute his wealth to me and help me with my problem.

Look at any replica vs. what the riders actually wear - they're rarely EXACTLY the same. The closest I can think of is the Sic tribute helmet, where they actually have the San Carlo graphic. Sponsors and teams rarely make it onto the production version of lids.
Besides, I doubt very much that AGV would alienate all their non-Yamaha riding customers.
Don't worry, it's not a problem. I have 11 lids that are all within riding spec (i.e. less than 5 years old) and I'm still on the hunt for more.

Ok. This one above is the PISTA model. GP tech helmet is the old design which will be replaced with new one i.e Pista/Corsa.
