Huh?What chu talkin bout Jeff? Oh that!A super nice guy named Walker Powell sold me a new,never worn,Bell ISDT "skunk" helmet he has had since 1973 when he ran the sound test for the 6 days.He was given it for the work he did at the event.I haven't received it yet but yeah,it should be a neat addition.How much-now that's a secret[:0]More later,
               Ric
P.S.-I'm looking for a clear acrylic,lexan,or glass display case to keep it in nice shape and for display purposes if anyone knows  of any.Thanks,Ric

Only reason I knew about it was because I bought the Olympics of Motorcycling book he was also selling on eBay.  He called me and I filled him in on the Reunion Ride, and that's when he asked if I knew a guy named Ric Emmal, and spilled the beans about the helmet.  I was thinking about it, but you beat me to the draw.  Nice find!

I'm not trying to one up anybody, but I wonder how many of those helmets are in the hands of us everyday motorcycle mortals? I own one of Dick  Burleson's skunk helmets.
