I need Help Deciding on a Helmet Color
Posted: Sun Aug 10, 2014 2:12 pm
Alright riders, I have a aesthetic problem for you all. I'm getting my gear together so I can ride again. I went to the store and tried on a number of helmets and decided on a HJC CL-17 Redline, but I can't decide on what color to order. (I'm going to order it through the store so that they get a cut, don't worry.)
I fell in LOVE with the pink once I saw it online. Perfect. Bad-ass. All that jazz. The bee's knees.

My friend then pointed out that it wouldn't match my jacket. The jacket was on a ridiculous sale, and is clearly the best jacket I could hope to get right now. Couldn't afford it if it was anywhere near full price.

My question to you is, will the pink helmet clash too hard with this jacket? I kind of feel like you can get away with a bit of mismatching when you're talking motorcycle gear. What do you think? Should I get a different color instead? The one in store was high-vis yellow, which I liked too. I think high-vis yellow would mismatch just as bad though. You can see the other colors in the link preceding the photo. Tell me what you think!
