So I was looking at my 1986 GSX 750R, and I realized i wanted to do something original. So I decided to get a riding outfit that resembles Daft Punk. The jacket and pants are easy enough (could use some help with that, haha), but the helmet...

So is there a helmet in existence that resembles the above ^^^ helmet? With a tall visor that goes up to the top of the head (doesn't have to open)? obviously the back doesn't have to be the same, and i prefer it not to, but...yea. I am willing to sacrifice safety for this outfit.

P.S. An exact replica of this helmet is $65,000 (plus copyright charges), just a wee bit out of my price range...

Never seen a helmet made like that.

You can probably have a mold placed over an existing helmet for about 1/65,000 the price of the replica. But I imagine once your bike got up over 20-25mph your neck is going to start to strain from wind resistance.

That looks like it would be a total custom job.

I would think the darkened part would have to be the front but then who knows, might be the small hole like structure on the side ha ha does look very space suit like. SPACE SUIT!!!!!!
Hay that's an idea that might keep me warm this winter whum
wonder if $46,000 is to much to spend on a riding suit for this winter + could i grip the handlebars if I got it?????

Those look like slightly modified skydiving helmets.
