    Nice, a man after my own heart.

    I ride a Bonnie, play guitar and I have a collection of pocket watches ;)

    My Mrs would flatten me if I did that. It was bad enough that I joked about putting my rifles on the wall and they match the wood on the cabinets

    I store my Arai helmet in a helmet bag, in a cupboard away from UV light / sunlight

    This. I'd also be a but wary of the stands compressing the foam/liner, even if they're fairly well fitting or soft.

    Loks cool mind.

    Not sure I'd get away with that somehow, but it looks cool, certainly better than some of the shite ornaments, paintings and mirrors that you see on walls
    Average helmet costs £400, why not show them off.

    Nice Godin, it's a fairly masculine room dude from that perspective... is it all balanced in the other directions? I'm thinking 1960's valve juke box, a pinball machine, a rack full of seminal DVDs (The Big Lebowski, Blade Runner directors cut etc) and a fuck off sized, original oil painting of Bugs Bunny, but when he was dressed as a girl, just to confuse your father in law?

    :cool:
