Solid Gold Helmets has again introduced new version of helmet line up of the popular Apollo 88. Previously Apollo 88 helmet is only in black and white but now the colour is updated to seven. Not just that, the lining sticker also got 5 colours to choose from.

The most noted feature of this 2010 Apollo helmet is not just about the colour, but also the introduction of the red tag on the D-ring fastener that really makes it stand out from other low priced helmets.

Price is RM38.

UPDATE (30/09/2010): This helmet is hard to get. I have went to Sentul, KL and asked all of the shop there but none of them got the black with orange stripe. The price there is only at RM30

Previously, Andrey Philipus has sent me few pictures of his heavily modified 135LC here: https://www.bikesrepublic.com/2009/04/03/modified-yamaha-135lc-from-indonesia-by-andrey-philipus/

Now, he has remodified his bike and this is what you get!

I think the execution of this bike modification is one of the best I have ever seen. It is different that what we always seen. The airbrush design and colour match the modified bodywork really well like it is were factory-made by Yamaha itself.

Nice work Andrey! Keep up those pictures coming!
