Bon Voyage

Ruby; the foie gras of motorcycle helmets. Most of the other metaphors I could use for my new Castel are erotic. BP

Is this worth the money? I'm interested, but it's so expensive.

Pelican,
it's a lot of money, but a lot of helmet.

Some people spend a lot more on a wrist watch, but if their Lamborghini Sesto Elemento is stuck in a traffic jam, those 1/1000th of a second aren't so relevant.

You should see a Ruby in the flesh if you can. The finish is second to none.

I've just soiled my smalls, what a fucking brilliant colour mate, wow, fois gras with a '96 d'Yquem more likely !!!

semplicemente FOTONICO!

Chris said...

that is a thing of rare beauty. I'm hoping the resemblance that I'm seeing to a knight's helmet in the chin bar is deliberate

Is that some kind of custom "Sideburn" print at the back or a limited edition of some sort? Lovely in any case.

Chris

KSR,
Ruby were showing off.
They did it as a two-off.
One for me, one for GI.

My ex-Transco Transit tipper is this exact same colour and seems so much more glamourous to me now!

That color! Is it Celeste?

Sideburn Magazine said...

- Twp
it's a click greener and darker than Celeste/Bianchi blue.
Ruby call it 'Lagoon'.
I'd call it turquoise and its lickable.
