Troy Lee Feathers...Finally brave enough

[yakboy]

I've had a NOS 1992 Troy Lee Feather sticker set hanging on my bike pegboard for about 7 years now and also a NOS boxed 1996 Bell Image helmet...I knew what I wanted to do but had never been brave enough! With the York Cycle Show coming up I decided it was time to use them for what they were intended for, so out with the scalpel and opened them up.



Helmet unboxed



Then using a hair dryer to reactivate 33 year old adhesive, fitted the feathers





Really happy with the look. I think I may stop there as if I put the other stickers on it may over-egg the pudding ( and I have a few more Troy Lee Helmets that would benefit.

I can’t bring myself to use any of mine! 4 sets and only 1 with the inverse button colours (little round decals with the cross which are more often green with a blue cross where yours are blue with a green cross)

Reminds me of the helmets Troy did for Scott Russell. The Golden Era of World Superbikes.

Was for the leathers first then the helmet, this is from my collection - hand drawn by Troy himself
