At Ray Petty Meccanica, custom work isn’t about ticking boxes — it’s about building something personal, properly.
Alongside our custom motorcycles, we offer bespoke helmet painting, created to the same standard and mindset as everything that leaves the workshop. Each helmet is painted by hand, one at a time, with no templates, no shortcuts, and no repeat designs.
If you want something off-the-shelf, this isn’t it.
We can paint any helmet you supply, but our preferred base — and the helmet shown in all examples — is the DAViDASpeedster V4.
It’s a modern classic for a reason: clean lines, timeless shape, and the perfect canvas for custom paint. Ray Petty Meccanica supplies the Speedster V4 directly, ensuring fit, finish, and prep are right before any paint is laid down.
Finish & Detail
Details matter. That’s where most custom work falls apart — and where ours stands out.
From subtle pinstriping to bold graphic layouts, every line is intentional. Finishes range from deep gloss to period-correct satin, depending on what suits the design (and the bike it’s paired with).
Nothing leaves the workshop unless it looks right in natural light, not just under studio lamps.
Enquiries
If you’re interested in a custom painted helmet, get in touch with:
- Your helmet choice (or request for a DAViDA Speedster V4)
- Any reference images or ideas
- Rough timescale
We’ll tell you straight whether it’s a good fit — and if it is, we’ll make something worth wearing. Lead times vary depending on complexity and current workload. If timing matters, say so early — honesty beats disappointment.
