Could anybody use a free helmet?

If so contact me. Otherwise it goes in the garbage.

I have a motorcycle helmet that the special screws that hold the visor on have fallen out. I was unaware they had come loose until I turned to check my blind spot and the wind ripped the visor off on the interstate. I have been unable to find where to get replacement screws and a visor. It is in great condition otherwise and is only 1 year old.

Without the visor it is worthless as a motorcycle helmet however it would work well for a helmet to use for automotive racing as you do not need a visor. It is DOT approved.

If you think you might want it PM me and I can send you pics.


PS: DON'T EVER CHEAP OUT ON A MOTORCYCLE HELMET!! THIS IS ONE OF THOSE AREAS WHERE YOU TRULY GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!

Not true in all cases. For most tracks they will let you slide on a DOT helmet if your car is running like 13.00-13.99 which is the upper limits of helmet territory. Plus the fact that 90% of DOT approved motorcycle helmets have the Snell M certification as well make this a good starter helmet. I'm gonna be selling my old one once I get my new Impact Racing helmet here and painted up.



I used to race cars, now I race myself.
