If you follow my Twitter or Facebook, you will know how big of a geek I have been about Disney’s TRON: Legacy. A lot of people have faint memories regarding the original TRON and one of the memories that stand out the most is the infamous Light Cycles. Well, it was only a matter of time before someone created a pretty awesome motorcycle helmet themed after the movie. Parisian motorcycle helmet designer, Les Ateliers Ruby has created a limited edition TRON themed open faced motorcycle helmet feature the every iconic blue and white circuit board graphics. These “Ruby & TRON”  helmets aren’t for sale yet, but there is speculation that these helmets will go for a pretty penny. Most likely over $1,500.00+. Yikes! I really dig the old school design of the helmet and it would look freakin’ bad ass if you are a “Cafe Racer” enthusiast.

Safety is definitely a huge factor if you are planning on getting a motorcycle. Well, considering there is a huge amount of customization going on for motorcycles, why not put your personal touch on your helmet as well. Especially if its something bad ass like an Iron Man custom paint job. Safety is definitely key, but you shouldn’t have to give up style. Just don’t be a douche and put some lame ass fluorescent colored plastic mohawk on your helmet. Thats just tasteless and… well I guess douchey.
