    Hi Moggs.

    The photos are really bad, if possible can you get some better ones, including of the decals.

    To me it looks like a modern reproduction because of the shape, eg there is no front dip and those angles are too sharp on the sides.

    Kind regards,

    Will.

    I wouldn't bother with more photos, it's a Chinese copy. Leave well alone.

    Cheers,

    If the seller has a newer cell phone, there is a feature called cropping....

    Cheers for the replies guys and thanks for the help was skeptical in the first place but as you all agree as well definite no go. Seller hasn’t bothered to send more pics anyway which probably tells you they know 😆

    It always amuses me how many times a helmet from 'dads old collection' is offered for sale, yet it's nearly always junk. Still, I suppose someone falls for it.

    Cheers,
    Steve
