US 7,802,321 B2 · Motorcycle helmet cover

Abstract

A cover for decorating a motorcycle helmet, including a substantially circular exterior material portion, having variable decoration, connected anteriorly and at the sides to a substantially circular interior mesh material portion by a seam. The enclosure provides two openings on either side of the invention, providing spaces through which the helmet's chinstraps can be threaded through. The seam ends in the posterior of the enclosure to provide an opening in the back of the invention through which the helmet may be inserted. Both pieces of fabric provide corresponding non-permanent fastening agents which are used to secure the invention around the helmet inserted inside. Alternatively, the invention may be a cover for decorating a motorcycle helmet, including a substantially circular/helmet shaped silicone skin/elastic material portion, having an opening on either side of the enclosure through which the helmet's chinstraps can be threaded through, and a formed lip around the edge of the enclosure which wraps around the exterior of the helmet to fit on the interior, as to secure the invention to the helmet in a non-permanent fashion.
