Crash helmets, where to buy from?

[Amos91]

I found this last night and was very tempted but I do want an open Face helmet.
It's sold now anyway.

Plus you're not allowed motorcross helmets on trackdays.

Yeah I know that bud, I thought it was a normal helmet?

 

[Mr R.]

Oh and just to let you guys know, curborough is a small sprint circuit, the Type RA forum who I'm going with have no more than 17 cars attending and it's one car on track at a time I believe.

Also the fastest you get down the strict is about 80mph so it's fine for a newbie like me.

The one in the eBay link directed me to the a Bell MX-9 Motorcross helmet. Those have what can only be described as the pointed mouth area which won't be allowed.

Hope that makes sense!

Have you got anymore pictures?

 

[Steve]

Just those three at present.
No marks, never abused, really comfortable & light.
The peak acts as sunvisor on bright days.

That doesn't sound very fun lol.

It is when you don't know how to drive.

I'm sure you know how to drive mate. You'd have crashed in the new car otherwise!

MSAR in SE London have large stock, might be worth a visit to try a lid on.

Ref the open face lids, you wont be allowed to use them in open seaters, just incase you might end up going in one ect.

+1 for MSAR, very knowledgeable on all things trackday and race items. I popped down there by appointment to buy a few bits.

 

[Steve]

Cheers Scott have a good day at Curborough.
Car sounds epic

Great to meet you Steve and thanks for the cup of tea. Track day went well although bloody hot which the car didn't like to much.
Didn't crash and got the car back home in one piece. ??

 

[Steve]

How was the helmet, so comfortable & light?

Perfect Steve, very light indeed.

Just a shame it was so hot.
