Up for Matt's benefit is a Buell GearHead (zat what it was called?) helmet - size XL. It's in perfect condition and has NEVER been used. It has been tried on once. I received it as a gift in the summer or fall of 2001.

The Buell logo helmet sack is included but the plastic visor protector was removed.

By week's end, this helmet will hopefully have Erik's signature on it.

I'll try to post pre-autograph pics in a few hours.

Sorry about the lack of pictures. My laptop hard disk crashed monday and things aren't looking good for a timely replacement. Posting this message from my PDA.

The helmet is black and it has blue / white sprocket patterns on it that are large enough to just appear like a cool pattern. I have pre-sig photos I'll TRY to post tonight.

This auction will end in a week - Thursday, May 17 at 10pm Eastern time.

This helmet is PRISTINE. It has not been used - only tried on once. I received it as a gift from a very dear friend and feel this is the best life I can give the helmet. I always loved how it looked.

The photos were taken RIGHT BEFORE it was boxed up for its autograph trip.

Since we've already got a bid, I'll pick up the shipping. Please keep in mind that I'm already paying to have this shipped TWICE - once to have it signed (already on its way) and once to the buyer.

Let's step up for the Ware family!

-Saro

PS - Thanks to wonderful people for making the autograph possible.

OK - I'm trying to find out who made that specific helmet for Buell. With any luck, maybe I can even get a post autograph pic posted.

OK - I'm told that there's a tag inside the helmet which reads "Manufactured by KBC".

Here are autographed pics:

So, bid it up a bit more! :-)

Well - one more day left. I was hoping to see $200.

Did I mention that it's never been used? Oh, and that it's got Erik Buell's autograph in silver?

: )
