There was a recent thread on helmet purchase considerations. If you haven't seen my post on Porsche Talk, check out the following link:

Using this service can extend the length of helmet use.

Interesting.. As Aubrey points out, the use of a balacava can also have the same affect. I started using one for the very same reason.

I've been trying to get a new helmet from Bell since before T-Giving and they still don't have the model/size I'm looking for. Just complaining.

-the refurb of helmets is a pretty good idea

After that mental image $125 sounds really good (we got our ‘95s right around ’95, that’s a lot of funk)
