**Skyway** 1983 Rider Sponsored Helmet "Mike Dominguez"????
skywayman:
I have had this a few years and know it was imported in from the States to the UK roughly 10 Years ago. I am very fond of this lid and intended to keep it.
However It has got to the point that either a BMX goes or this lid goes.
I am not sure of its worth but have had a few offers on it already but have always declined
I didn't want to now sell it or advertise it with out trying to get some authenticity on it as I believe it to be have previously owned by Mike Dominguez???
He was riding for Skyway in 1983 and the Helmet is also Dated 1983. The Skyway Design and Rider Lettering is consistent with pics I have seen of later helmets and sponsored gear. The Skyway Logo and the Name on the rear has all been pinstriped and then painted and then peeled off the way all the lids were done back then.
How many Skyway Sponsored riders were called Mike? Any information on this would be most appreciated. I have seen some Magazine covers with a similar hemlet but I just can not zoom in enough. The decals are all seem to be original apart from the Hotshot and the JT Racing ones which are original 80's Decals which I stuck on and would recommend taking off for more authenticity.
The Helmet this printed on the inner strap.
