First helmet?

[William K]

So I ended up getting a LS2, one of their moduler jobs in fluro.
I don't have many bike shops near me and could only really try on a hand full of models. I found one i like and got them to get one my size as the one in stock was a bit loose,
Now I'm looking for a good Jacket, pants, boots and gloves, they only stock one brand there in Oamaru so I'll wait till I go through Christchurch next to try some on.
Can anyone recommend any good shops there for me?
Cheers again for all the help with the helmets

Sorry bit late in responding in case no one has already mentioned. Check for the date when the helmet was manufactured . Its usually inside the helmet under the lining with a date sticker on the inner shell. Don't trust the sales men or what's written on the box.

Try looking on line too. That's where I get most of my gear. I find Teknic brands good for jackets.

Went into budget motorcycle spares, they were great, got a jacket and pants and plan on going back for gloves and boots, they even gave me a discount. Would have been 440odd and the guy said 400 without even asking, highly recomrnded
