    gday

     

    dont know if ya can, but I've got a helmet that's falling apart a little on the inside and would like a lead on where I can get it done 

    I'm sure it would be cheaper to buy another one but it's got a little sentimental value 

     

    cheers

    There are US companies who can and do reline old and NOS ( New Old Stock ) helmets

    Usually classics like 1960's Buco , Shoei , Bell , Fulmer whatever

    I don't know of anyone in Australia doing it , but I'm keen to know if there is

    I would consider the price of a new helmet rather than refurbish an old one

    Sometimes dudes just want an old helmet cause' they're " cool " and there's nothing wrong with that !

    I've had "brand new" NOS helmets , eg Shoei , from the 60's and the graphics and paint are truly stunning

    Well worth saving and wearing. Most of the "well priced" AKA cheap helmets on the market today are Chinese

    PS June AKA Beeza , yer a " Cunny Funt "  as usual haha...

    Better make sure it's legal (and safe).
