Seems to me that every helmet I have owned, specifically states "do not use chemicals(ie paint) on them" however, From the snell website..
"Cosmetic changes to certified headgear are permissible. Such changes are generally limited to marking or trimming the headgear with manufacturer approved paint or tape. Otherwise, modifications to certified headgear effectively create new configurations which shall not have the confidence and certification of the Foundation until properly evaluated"

Some airbrush paints, and a lot of new automotive paints aren't solvent based anymore.
Just a note, last years rulebook included Snell 2005 and 2010. This year 2010 is the minimum Snell accepted, and the rulebook will be changed to relfect that 2005 is no longer an option.

thats what i was thinking is that with most paints being water based now days that i wouldnt imagine it effecting the helmet as much or at all.
and just to make sure. the ece22-05 is still good rite? thats what the scorpion helmets are.
and Jon, bike looks awesome, the cf vinyl stands out nicely for the number.
I thought that wire was there so I could hang my cover like that? Haha, jk, it was nicely balanced on the frame slider for the picture and that was it.
Anyways, still working on some other mods to the bike, here's a new pic, wind screen is in and some more trim added.

Hi Jon, your bike is looking better every day, Your bike will definitely be looking good at the track this year,
Enjoy the ride, and best regards,

So everything is finished, I did some soul searching and decided the bike just wasn't saying look at me as much as I want it to. I think it is pretty close now.
Big HUGE thanks to Riverside Honda for hooking me up with pure awesomeness. I got a ton of gear and parts from them to match the bike. The girls in accessories did an amazing job. Frank at the parts counter got everything in I asked for.
Also big thanks to my pal Ryan at Glass Assassin, I think he helped come up with another unique design for the bike. He slaved for hours and hours putting in tons of tiny details on the bike. Every star was cut and applied by hand.

All that work and you still have the ugly rusty exhaust chamber sticking out like a sore thumb! Time for some ceramic coating I think.
