This is the brand new Valentino Rossi GP-Tech replica helmet.
This helmet is a replica of the one that Valentino Rossi uses as a primary race helmet, that replaced the 5 Continents helmet when Rossi moved from Yamaha to Ducati.
The helmet was designed by Aldo Drudi and the design is called ‘Elements’.
The front of the helmet features a large Sun motif, and the rear features the Moon motif. Each of the rays of the Sun that is featured on the helmet, features a panel reflecting each of the elements (water, wind, fire, earth) that runs down each side of the helmet.
The rear of the helmet also features Rossi’s race number ’46′.
This is a pretty stunning looking helmet, and it’s not cheap either – the AGV GP-Tech range is the top end of the AGV range. The best prices can be found online, so check the dealers and vendors that are currently selling this Valentino Rossi helmet below.
