Title: gear question
Post by: wildbill on August 22, 2006, 06:08:47 PM
I need to buy a motorcycle helmet since i just got a GS500 and i dont want to use my motorcross helmet. I've checked brokton cycles out and they seam to have reasonable prices on helmets and gear, anyone know of other online stores for helmets/gear that have good deals?

Dennis Kirk website...clearance prices only, though. Think they call it their "Outlet" store.

motorcyclecloseouts.com
newenough.com

Make sure you actually try the helmet on for about 30 minutes before you buy it...   O0

You don't want a screaming headache when you're 30 minutes ride time from home. :nono:

Go to a brick and motar store to try on helmets.  See if there is a CycleGear near you, or look under motorcycle in the phone book for motorcycle shops near you.
