Thanks but that’s not the version I want. The PitBoss version I want had a black visor with a pull down shield.
The non-visor (brain bucket ...lol) version is actually called the “Sport” and that’s not what I’m looking for but thanks.

Do this. I get my helmets shot to match the bikes. $100 at my local custom body shop.

Funny but I just noticed the white was gone a few days ago. We are on our second pair of Pit Boss helmets and love them. The current set is White. It helps on hot days and it is very visible. We switched to them from a gray originally and WOW you can see people notice them. So much that when I bought my Shoei for winter I went with WHITE.

Yep.... those are my points exactly. I can only assume that Bell’s reason to stop selling a white or pearl white was they didn’t sell enough, although they obviously sold every one they made since there’s no new ones left in store inventories. However, I think they should reconsider that decision. While black is the “cool, in style color” distracted driver accidents are increasing and anything clothing and equipment manufacturers can do to increase safety through increased visibility is good. Fortunately HJC still makes a white half helmet but for me I prefer the styling of the Pit Boss. Perhaps it will reappear in the next year......
