AGV Launches Limited Edition "WORLD TITLE 2003" Rossi Replica Helmet

 

This is the special edition helmet that Rossi wore when he celebrated his fifth world championship in Sepang in 2003. This will be the first product of the I CASCHI DI VALE project. The series will sell Valentino Rossi designs designed for single races and special occasions such as winning championships, and has never been commercialized before.

The project is expected to continue for the next three years, with two patterns released each year. The production quantity of both patterns will be the same as the year of the pattern, but serial number 46 will be kept as Valentino Rossi's private collection.

The helmets will be specially packaged and come with a letter from Valentino Rossi, telling the story of each helmet. WORLD TITLE 2003 is the first part of this project. This is the helmet he wore to celebrate his third consecutive victory and fifth world championship at the 2003 Sepang Grand Prix. There is a huge number 1 design on the front of the helmet, and his racing number 46 on the side. Although Rossi won 9 world championships, he never used the number 1 in the competition. He only put the number 1 on the shoulder of his leather jacket one year after winning the championship. The five stars on the top and sides represent the number of championships won so far, and behind is a classic sun design similar to a tribal totem and the VR logo.

Japan said that it is expected to be delivered in January 2020. The suggested retail price is 225,000 yen, and it is limited to 2,003 units worldwide.
