A huge thanks goes out to Bell Helmets for sending me this neat 500 Custom helmet. I was really surprised that it fits very nicely and isn't huge, like the Davida 3/4 helmets. The quilted lining is super cool. I'm comparing the Medium size with a 1962 Buco Helmet for those of you are interested. Here's a link to some detailed photos of each of the different helmet colorways available! The helmets are very affordably priced at around $120.00 for the standard colors and $140.00 for the custom designs as available here among other places!
