Feb 19 2009Do It Yourself: Pac-Man Motorcycle Helmet
Let's face it, every motorcyclist wishes they could cruise down the street looking like Pac-Man is eating their face. Well loyal Geekologist MMach made the dream a reality when he painted his helmet to look like the icon character. But instead of munching dots, now he munches the dotted line. But not the double solid, that would be dangerous.
I'm not quite sure if this has use on your blog, but I find it quite funny, albeit a bit geeky. Months ago, I bought a new helmet, and I got this idea for my old helmet. I decided it would look great to paint it like pacman. And I have to say, I like the look of it. :)
I like it too. Smart decision, MMach. Reduce, repaint, recycle. I would totally make one except I don't have a motorcycle or motorcycle helmet. But I do wear a crash helmet when my dad pulls me around in the wagon. So I may paint that. One time we crashed and I rolled into a storm sewer. I made friends with a dead raccoon down there. I poked Stripey in the eye with a stick.
Hit the jump for some before and after action.
Thanks MMach, now let's go munch some asphalt.

I have no issue communicating without the use of profanity. Quite frankly, the english language offers much more colorful adjectives. The point being made is simply that in this country, where this blog is hosted, we have freedom of speech. The same freedom of speech that would protect this blogger (GW) in court. I find it rather disingenuous of him to post NSFW content and genitalia jokes, then censor our comments about them.
WIN!! Where's the drool cup?
*No, leave the helmet on...*

And I suppose the reflectors that are glued onto the road are the "power pellets?" which raises the question: how many points are issued when you wipe out and eat a few?

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie NEver Back Down where Max was in the pro shop making fun of the hat on the display. He then told a guy who was wearing it, that it looked good on him.

Couldn't he have started with a yellow helmet that was roughly that shape and and just added a dot for the eye?

Anyone riding a Kawasaki Ninja is cool in my books regardless of their helmet, biznatches.

Now he just needs to paint the bike like either Sue (the ghost) or Ms. Pacman bent over....Zelda tramp-stamp optional.

Hi friends i thinks that helmets are very important for the bikers because it prevents us from the accident and protect to our body so that helmets are very important. I have a website which sale the best brand of helmets at affordable price.

Although very cool, it probably destroys the extremely important layers of stuff between the air and your head. Most stickers cant even be applied to motorcycle helmets without causing invisible damage, I wouldn't even like to know the damage this has caused :p
Looks cool ... but seriously, I'd avoid wearing it to protect my head in a 70mph collision.
