Grandfathers, even......
As for me, I'd like a camchain that didn't rattle

Helmets - depends what you want to spend..................
I've had Arai, Shoei, HJC, Bell Star and even a Masei from China which is surprisingly good...............

Might have been a wee bit of "tongue in cheek" going on there Shadow.

I have considered your offer of one for Fathers Day, but will decline just at the moment.

According to Wilbur Smith they are all just big and scary, come complete with an attitude, and an assegai ; I have enough going on in my life without you sending me a Fathers Day present that wants to kill me to atone for past Imperial injustices.

Perhaps just a card would be appropriate.
