No not if it’s kept in bag/box and stored properly,Shoei technicians told me 5 years advised life of helmet but if stored properly and not dropped will last for years obviously if lining gets grubby I’d bin it

Was looking yesterday and spotted this, really like the colour scheme and design of this helmet, it will match my gold/black CB500 when I get it on the road.



I like the look of that Shoe,it’s worth looking at Infinity Motorcycles online they have reductions on at moment😁

I rode my Hondamatic 400 with pair of footrests like these  attached to the engine guard after I’d had knee surgery.Didn’t like riding it at first but grew to like it but had to as couldn’t sell blooming thing till last year when I sold it for more than twice what I paid for it to a guy with arthritic left hand😁
