Title: Good place to order a Helmet online?
Post by: Daniely on May 20, 2005, 10:03:55 AM
Well, I got the CBR finished, and Ill have pics up of it this weekend. But I am using a loaner helmet atm. I need to go ahead and order my new one today, I want the KBC VR-1 (same helmet I was wearing when I wrecked). Figure im 1-0 while using that helmet, might as well get the same one, and it was comphy. Anyways, where is a good place to get deals on helmets online? Thanks guys!

I was looking at the JC Whitney catalog this morning.  I'm pretty sure they had VR-1 helmets.

I've ordered a bunch of stuff (including my KBC Vision) from MotorcycleCloseouts.com (http://www.motorcyclecloseouts.com). They've got great prices.

i guess you already know vr-1 is discontinued...i have a vr-1 euro and plan to get a vr-2.

tonker.com still vr-1s. (euro is $20 more than the regular)

I don't know what size and whatnot your looking for but I've done some biz with ridegear.com and been happy with their service, they also do pricematching, try them or kneedraggers.com..  a friend of mine has done buisness with helmetcity as well, and had nothing but good things to say about them, so check them out, saw someone else mentioned them..
if you're lazy like me here's a linke to ridegear's closeouts on vr-1's
