To match or not to match.

Just curious how you guys go about choosing your helmet.  I have always had black, but for some reason, I want a little color this time. 
(For the record, I know that fitment is foremost and I prefer the Exo700, but it is offered in so many colors, I just can't decide).

 I match. But then again I own a purple chair, so take my opinion at face value.

FWIW I own a red and white exo700 burst

That is what started this question.  I like the red and black burst, but have a black and tang bike.  Could be potential style suicide.  But so could the bengal tiger humping a zebra looking Exo700 Predator.

When I bought my TriColore, my helmet was already 7 years old (RX7-RR3 KRJR model). When I saw an Italy themed Arai Profile on Fleabay for under $300, I took it. Not as nice as a brand spankin new Corsair, but the poseur factor was high

My EXO700, matte black match my Dark S2R very nicely...

A lot of Scorpion fans, huh?

I guess mine kinda matches the bike - red M696 with the Arai Profile Italian tricolor. It's also got lots of gray and black, so the helmet matches with most Ducs (except yellow).

my helmet matches my jacket and gloves but my bike is black so it doesnt matter. I always thought matching your bike to all your gear thing was kinda dumb but whatever.

Yup, I have an exo700 crackhead in /black/red and I love it.  I tried on several of the more expensive brands but for fit/finish/price the scorpion won hands down.  I am not saying that it is better quality than the other more expensive lids but for the price the difference quality/fit is negligible. 

Very good airflow at higher speeds too (head does not wiggle at all on the super-slab).  The venting is also excellent.

Very lightweight too.  Actually, only about 2 oz. heavier than my friends $600 Arai and lighter than another friends Shoei.

I tried to match with my first helmet




But then I said screw it and got the helmet that I wanted.

White is the least naturally occurring color in nature so I roll a white lid.  Like I give a rats-ass what I look like while rollin'! 

Visability first....

Don't match unless your bike is black and your helmet is black (red/red is barely permissible).  And don't get one of those replica helmets.  They look like someone puked on your head.



<No idea why I have such a strong opinion on the subject or whether I even believe myself>

Ya kiddin? Animals... vegetables... minerals... clouds... snow (except for the yellow variety)...

If you didn't care what you looked like you'd rock a dayglo lid.

Yea, I got a invisible black bike and a black helmet.

Also one of those AGV #46 V.Rossi signature models that's the oblig green,red and white.

Dude, have you met Stu?  It's pretty obvious he doesn't care what he looks like.
