for my big ol' melon head... Started shopping for a new helmet for next year, and the ones I picked up on the shelf at a particular dealer had dates of manufacture back in '06. Now, I hope not to bounce my head off the tarmac too often, so I'd like to maximize the length of time my helmet is legal for competition. Going into 2009 with a helmet already 3 years from manufacture isn't what I want. Admittedly, XXXL helmets aren't flying off the shelves, but anybody got tips on getting a helmet that's not so close to it's expiration date?
I'd be looking a the new Nolans. Crash tested extensively by Jorge Lorenzo and Stoner this season I'd say they more than do the job. http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/N...nolan-replica-helmets-released/?&R=EPI-103625 The strawberries have GOT to go though.
I can't really help, but I just wanted to say "Thank You", from all the XXL headed people out there for giving us someone we can make fun of for having a big head.
i dont know nothing about no expiration dates..........but i could see you in something like this.... i think you could easily pull off the Gimli look . 'course you'd have to pop rivet one of those old school bubble visors on the front. , buddy.
Dang, a whole bunch of helpful answers! James, I'm gonna get "Flying Viking" on the back of my new leathers.
