Bye bye Skully.

Did anyone here buy one of those Skully helmets or know anyone who did?

My brother-in-law may be Beta testing one this weekend. He's been on their Beta list for over a year.

It would be interesting to hear a report from someone who actually got one and then was able to use it on the road. The reviews are more like PR with all kinds if reasons given why there was no use while riding.

Their website says they were shipping and with all the hype about them you'd think there would be reports out.

Maybe because it is still a beta the recipients are bound by some agreements not to make public statements about them?

I have had HUD in my car for years, I find I drive the speed limit regularly now because the speed is displayed right there in my peripheral vision all the time.
