What are you guys doing with old helmets?

Put them on CL and make a few bucks?

Well, i had my wife pick me up a shark while she is in italy. I will have it next week when i get back from england. Pretty cheap too. They end up being a couple hundred bucks less than the cost in the US. Of course i took a chance on it not fitting but im pretty sure i can resell it if i have to without losing any money and maybe even making a few bucks.
Got rid of the dirty helmets to local kids too. Still got my spider shoei and phoenix arai that i will be getting rid of. I think im gonna give one to each person on here to diplay that wanted them when i get my helmet in and it fits.

I think I'd rather wear Randy's used underwear than depend on someone elses worn out helmet........

Who's going to judge? The bears and deer?

Even though i live deep in the woods my wife is still concerned about looks. On a side note i lost a planter last week that was hanging just like those when a possum got stuck in it. I had to cut it at the straps and pray the possum didnt attack me as i was running the other way. If it was a helmet planter i dont think i would have been able to cut the straps and not get attacked.

I'm loooking into removing the inards of a few helms and sinking lights into them. With the location on the shelves in the basement if I light the room through the visors, I can eliminate the hanging lights and create more overhead room for weights/ projects in the adjoining workshop.
