White helmets?

[davereid]

FFM still list the Tourpro II in white at $160 or the Tourpro III in white and red for $179 Your dealer should be able to get it.

Oh how I would love a Simpson! But that's a bit pricey for me. I'm in Wellington - Wellington motorcycles only had black FFMs, Motorad had a white Arai....for $700ish, and Scooterazzi were extremely helpful but still, cheapest white helmet would have been a Nolan at $550.

I will find one! At the moment I may settle for a Silver Oxford OX-2 - they are $99 and beat a whole lot of more expensive helmets (like the Shoei XR-1100) in the SHARP ratings. 4/5 vs 3/5! Bt of course it'll depend on fit. Tried on the FFM helmets - seemed fine but not spectacularly comfy.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys!

I got a matt white ls2 from Motorad maybe they can get one in for you?

Which is true - I just (naively) thought that a plain white helmet would be the most common and therefore cheapest option

Rouind here I reccon there's more matt-black silly open-face things sold than anything else - gotta look "hard" when posing on the new Hawg doncha know

Try TSS Redbaron they have more helmets and accessories than anyone in Wellington.

Funnily enough most car racing helmets are white. There isn't much difference between a single seater helmet and a bike one.

The other option is to get some vinyl and apply a bold pattern yourself. 30min can make a helmet really stand out!

mmm, your quite wrong there, there is a fair bit of difference between a car racing helmet (SA2005 rated) and a motorcycle one, most of all the motorcycle one will be lighter and cheaper for the same brand, basically the car racing helmet is designed to take multipull hits (form a roll cage) and the motorcycle one is designed to take one hit, and there is also the fire proof liner, and impact resistant visor,

it is weird, White helmets stand out a lot more, but black ones outsell them about 10-1,

Richards Motorcycle Services in Johnsonville have white helmets for $165.00.
Cheers.

koba got his last AGV helmet at TSS Red Baron, lower Hutt. If they haven't got one in stock I bet they'll get you one!

motomart have a small selection of white lids, i bought my shoei from there as it was the best fit on my square head. Great service too. I tried some on at Boyles in Newtown . good excuse to go hang out in bike shops.... a sacrifice I know, but you gotta do what ya gotta do.
