Just curious after seeing a few riders on the way into work with them on.
Do you wear the stick on ears (& tails!) on your helmet, have you, or will you - and why or why not Very Happy

Thumbs Down Just don't do it - yeah to begin with when I saw one person with them on I thought that was original and it looked ok. But the more and more I saw I was like - "How sad do you look!" Tut Tut

And whats the stink on tail bit - I've not seen this and if I did I would laugh at that person so hard I might die! Laughing

Fair enough for Girls to have them as they ARE feminine and should not be worn by blokes!

This is just my opinion - I'm just stating what I think - I know there will be a lot of people out there who will disagree with this (Hopefully more who will agree) but I thinks it a case of you either like them or hate them - I just one of those ones who hates them!
Thumbs Down

Far sadder are the hair pieces that stick on the inside of helmets to make it looker as if the wearer has long hair.

Worn by born agains on cruisers trying to pretend to be 'bros.

In answer to your questions:

No

No and

No.

I would however love to find out who actually manufactures them, as my other half has an idea for a new range that, as far as we have seen, has not been done yet, and he thinks he may be able to copyright it & make some money out oof them! Praying

To answer your questions:

no;

no; and

no.

As someone else said, when i first saw one, I liked the individuality, but once I had seen a few they lost their charm.

Saw a big "cruiser" barge on the M25 on Saturday, teddybear strapped to the pillion seat back (facing backwards), pillion wearing a set of ears and the rider wearing a big black stick-on mohican. It was probably all for a bit of "fun", but I would rather have people laugh at something genuinely funny than be laughed at in ridicule.

That said, I used to have a picture of Road Runner on the back of my helmet (like the avatar). Rolling Eyes

The only time I would consider it is for a track day, when they prob wouldn't let me on with it anyway.
BTW did anyone find a Sainsbury’s bank car air freshener at Cadwell, mine fell off Sad

They look utterly stupid.


So hell yes! the plum pudding meeting at mallory park on boxing day is normally rife with these kinds of antics due to it being too cold for any real racing Razz

I think they are great provided you have a plain helmet to help to show them off properly.

Yes, you did. But if you read any other thread you will see people expressing their own opinion - whether its similar to one already expressed or not. Karma
