I hope this is not getting anoying i’m posting again a fake.. but someone wanted to make me happy with this helmet!

He actualy just gave me this one, and said he did not know what to think of it( he probably knew it was not the real thing, but at least he did not even ask money for it)

Yes, Hans.
For some reason i can not post the high res. pictures here🤷‍♂️
The liner has a different shape. The holes in the liner are different and it seems they did not even bother to copy the chinstrap bale. Its not there but the chinstrap is directly attached on the inner ring..
