AGV Helmet – Valentino Rossi The DonkeyAGV is going to release at the end of January 2010 a special limited edition run of Valentino Rossi’s ‘Donkey’ helmet.
The iconic and ironic helmet was worn by Rossi at the Misano GP, who thought up the idea for the helmet and had Aldo Drudi design the graphics immediately after his silly crash at Indianapolis when Rossi admitted his first thought was “what a donkey” (even if we bet that wasn’t exactly his first thought).
The GP Tech is AGV’s top of the range lid, entirely made in Italy and helmet worn and developed by Rossi.
The lid will come with a limited edition box and sell for € 745.
