Love for helmets


MUMBAI: Bollywood heartthrob John Abraham’s passion for motorbikes is well-known. But very few know that he loves collecting helmets too.

“Bikes are my passion and I take care of my helmets as my babies. Like people go and buy clothes, I go shopping for helmets. I have different helmets for different days,” said John. “People feel I’m crazy, but I love shopping for my helmets and I have all major brands,” he added.

The 36-year-old actor who is the brand ambassador of Yamaha, was in New Delhi to launch three new bikes.

After launching the motorcycles, John talked about safety measure that bikers should keep in mind while riding.

“Safety is very important and that’s why helmets should be a biker’s priority. Safety of pillion riders is also important and they should also wear helmets,” he said.
