CHCH: Cheap FFM M-7 Helmets - $99

[Romeo]

Gidday guys,
Just thought I'd give a heads up to some of the Christchurch guys that the Hampton Motor Company is selling off about 20-30 FFM M7 helmets at $99 each. A pretty good price considering the helmet, there's a few reviews on KB where guys have paid up to $250-ish. So it's a pretty good deal, can't beat a $99 lid. Might be worth your while to pick up a spare or a pillion lid while you're at it.

If you're keen on picking one up it would be a good idea to email them regarding sizes and colours. Their email is eurosales@xtra.co.nz and their premises is at 20 Carmen road, Hornby, Christchurch.

The colours they had were Silver, Blue, Red, Black and the black/yellow/red/white design.


I just bought one, and my review and pictures are here.


Chur,
Romeo

I've thought about doing the run on my bike in a Santa suit.

Hey, it's in the works. If I play my cards right I might be in line for a mint '71 CB175 - P-Twin, 20hp and a 10k redline.

But now atleast I can pillion with the old man.

Regarding the santa suit: Yes, that would be quite disturbing :].

175... mate i'll find you something better!

My friggin V4 has a 10000 rev line.. but sure aint 20hp!

my first bike was a CB200 Honda (Honda bored out the 175 to make the 200). Good times.

If the 175 is mint it is becoming collectible.

Me I love the high pipe ones.

175... mate i'll find you something better!

1973 Honda CB175
$1500, warrant & rego, mint condition, new tires, 20,000 miles, full service history, one original owner - who's a mechanic and will do after sales maintainence for beer. If you can find a better deal than that I'll be very impressed.
