Simpson X Buell Mod Bandit in Detail
As we know, Buell Motorcycles continues to work on the development of a new range of models that it is already possible to reserve its expected Super Cruiser and Superouring 2025. Parallel to this, it has also been in this collaboration project from which a special edition helmet and truly unique limited edition are born: the Simpson X Buell Mod Bandit. Inspired by the essence that its Super Cruiser model evokes this includes the Buell brand and its Pegasus logo.
As explained Jamie BeckettDirector of Simpson: “We decided to base this special helmet on the Mod Bandit, our most selling model currently. The comments of our clients indicate that we are creating modern modular helmets, because ours combines that practical functionality with the characteristic design of the bandit.”
Concludes: “The forged carbon ghost bandit that we launched in spring had an incredible reception, so we decided to create the Simpson X Buell helmet using the same combination of chopped carbon fiber and infused resin, which gives each helmet a unique pattern. This is the first time we use carbon forged in the mod.”
About carbon are the Buell graphics and the design of Bob Smutz. Smutz resides in the new Buell headquarters in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and has already worked on his machines. Like all Bandit models, the Simpson X Buell helmet has the certifications DOT and ECE22.05.

Shipy carbon fiber perfectly complements our performance in races and carbon fiber body of our motorcycles. And with a design by Bob Smutz (Flyin ‘Kolors), the decision was obvious.”
