i reckon you will be very lucky to find a lid like the one vale wore at mugello
a lot of the mugello stuff is usually a one off design and is done for the mugello race only....take the hawian bike for example for the 2001 race its never been seen again all except in scale model form

good luck with the searching...

If they do it, you could expect to see it in about 6-8 months. That's the timeframe for the last couple of special lids (Mugello & PI 2007)

I heard Rossi's going to auction that one for charidee. Buy it then, always assuming that you own a bank!

The Mugello 2007 heart helmet was released as a road legal helmet, so the release of one-offs is not unheard of, but who knows how they decide which ones to release.

As good as the joke was i can't imagine a helmet that'd look more rediculous out of its intended context.

Agree.

It's the same as when everybody keeps repeating lines from movies or TV shows over and over again. Not funny after the first time.

Well the way i see it the face is pointing the wrong way if you arent in a full racing crouch, explaining the helmet to people who didn't know would be one of those cringe worthy moments where you look like a loser to the people on the outside of your in-joke and the people who know whats what will just think "There's another prick who thinks he's Rossi"

I challenge someone to walk into a pub with this lid and explain it.

Well excuse me for having an opinion, i'm sure you have one too so don't get too upset about mine. If you can find time try to get to grips with the difference between being judging someone and disagreeing with them.
