eBay... hmmm... i'm not buying a second hand helmet nor am I buying one that i haven't tried on to make sure it fits. Good idea for most things but not safety stuff i reckon.

I'm not doing any really dangerous racing, I'm looking for suggestions on what's out there that range from crap to excellent... Also, I figure that if I don't have any accidents then the equipment is going to last a long time. Thus, anything I buy will be almost a one off purchase and a large one of cost can be justified as an investment in my personal safety.

so, your saying, people who do race, purchase saftey gear with the intent to crash?

nobody wants the crash, nobody plans on crashing, however "safe" things might seem shit can still go wrong.

i guess that you would goto your local motorbike dealer for a helmet, if they're designed to protect your head coming off a bike, they'll keep you in one peice inside a car.

motocross helmet should be ace.

while your there, ask them where to get a donut.

although, my opinion is, you have a health issue, i think you should avoid anything that would put you in harms way.

but, its not my choice, just DONT skimp on cost, my friend is only alive after he got hit by a car on his moto because of his $600 leathers and helmet.
