ahhh helmets

So, Im trying to by a new a helmet online but I dont even know what the right size is for my head.. is there a place were I can figure out what size helmet I need that will fit nicely with out being to tight or to loose?

Jon, There is sport bike/ATV dealership located behind all the dealership that has Helmets in there you can try on and find what size you need..

oh wait the ones by the mall?

Yes, just behind the Chevy and Toyota dealership right across the street from the Pontiac dealership...

any certain brand or that such i should be looking for when i buy?

That's just your preference for style. I really like the Icon helmets.

hmm what are the usual helmet regulations for solo or any other event

If your buying a new motorcycle helmet you will meet those regulations so no need to worry.

alright great. thanks bobby

good? or should i keep looking http://www.helmetcity.com/page/HC/PROD/autosnellm/clspmatteblack

Looks kewl, but like I said its all your preference on style...

Wow that sexy, but expensive as hell.

just try to get the most up to date SNELL rating that you can

You want Sexy, look at the Helmet I want to get..



I have a friend who has a shop down south looking for one...

wow nice aha, cant buy those online?

the one i chose was one of the cheapest ones there was a 116 dollar one but its like some wierd black color

HJC is fine. Heck, I have an HJC. but just an FYI...the one ur looking at is pretty "heavy"...yeah i nkow 5lbs is heavy? when it's sitting on ur head...it makes a difference. but if u dont really care and only plan to wear it sparingly..it should be fine..

I personaly like OGK or Arai myself.


it's really based on pref on what kind u want. the only thing is just get oen that is DOT and SNELL >2000 approved.

and also, once u figure out what kind you want, go to a shop to get ur head fitted...coz XL in one brand is a diff size in another...

what you want is for it to hug ur face. the basic test is that when you put it on, you should hold the front bottom piece and move it up or down. if ur forehead moves w/ the helmet. it'sa pretty good fit. If it doesnt...it's a little too loose.

i get mines from walmart best helmets i've ever bought.. haaha.. i mean paint it sticker it up throw a mohawk on it and call it a day.

my helmet

Lol can you use that for autocrossing?

as long as its dot and snell rated im guessing, yea i know 5 pounds is heavy, right now I have an arai but its pretty beat and its out of date so i need a new one. ill post up a pic in a few seconds

the hjc helmet realy only weighs around 3 pounds so ive seen on the review sites
