If you asked me yesterday how big the world’s biggest helmet was, I would have pulled out my nerd cap (complete with propellor) and hunkered down to check out the Guinness World Record for ‘Largest Noggin;’ and while I’m sure that record is impressive, this one sports a lid that’s a tad too big to fit on anybody’s shoulders – least of all The Doctor’s.*

You heard right – the world’s largest motorcycle helmet is a tribute to the fantastic legacy*of one of our racing industry’s finest: Nine-time Grand Prix motorcycle racing World Champion, Valentino Rossi.*

The world’s biggest motorcycle helmet, featuring the source of inspiration – Valentino Rossi – beside the thing for comparison. Media sourced from 3D-Printing Media Network.Rossi recently enjoyed his last lap for the motorcycle world at last year’s EICMA, where his career was celebrated with great aplomb.*

Now, this gigantic 3D-printed helmet – a replica of Rossi’s 2019 AGV Pista graphics and product of 3D-printing marque Caracol AM – stands on exhibit in Pesaro, Italy; she‘s a whole 6 meters tall and runs a staggering 4 meters wide.*

It is purported to be ‘the biggest motorcycle helmet ever made,’ – and we think Rossi’s pretty happy about it.*

Just take a look at that grin.*
