Hi folks.

I have a rather unorthodox request for you. I'm looking for a second hand helmet. Before you worry, I'm not wanting it to ride in, I'm all sorted on that front, I'm looking for one for a performance and would prefer not to pay loads of money for one which is not required to protect my head.
Basically I'm trying to look like the Stig from Top Gear, so I'm after a full face white road helmet, preferably size medium, though large would work, too, which is in reasonable cosmetic shape.
Anybody in Wellington got one fitting this description which they've taken a spill in and are replacing? I'm offering to give you a bit of a contribution toward your replacement in return for a helmet you were probably going to throw away.

Thanks in advance.

Go to dollar dealers. :yawn:

Good luck acting like the Stig. He's the MAN!!

EDIT: Actually there's a guy on TradeMe that sells helmets that don't meet the standards for a motorcycle helmet, and he sells these cheap whilst stating the fact that they don't meet these standards. These are no good for motorcycle use but are great for go-karting and offroading and stuff like that, so they're VERY cheap. Plus you don't want a scratched up helmet from an average joe, it's gotta look good.

Search TradeMe, you'd have more luck on there than here. We're just loosers. Apart from me. :D

I've an HJC CL12 in grey, size 59-60 (large?). Free to a good home. Pick up from Upper Hutt
