"Doo rags?"

#1 Unread post by MrGromit »

Where do you get 'em?

You know what I'm talking about; they look like over-sized or specially-shaped bandanas that you tie over your hair for inside your helmet.

I've seen them with flame or Harley symbols on them but I'd prefer not to have one of those <insert obligatory "nothing personal to those who do" comment here>.

My helmet has washable pads but I'd prefer to keep the hair products and sweat out of it as much as possible.

Any (constructive) thoughts? <grin>

TIA

Just a thought, but I made my own out of an old t-shirt. Just cut a square out of the front of it, should be right about the size you need to tie a bandana out of it.

farm and fleet. :D
but that's a regional store. i use the regular sized bandannas, seem to fit just fine. i've heard tale you might be able to find them at wal-mart, but i wouldn't know from personal experience.

Earlier today I went into a "good" hardware store and bought one... solid black, $5. They had fancier ones for $8.50. By "good" I mean a store that has real hardware, tools, and supplies of the sort commercial shops use, not a "home improvement" store.
Ride it like you think owning it matters.
