    Local Suomy helmet dealer?

    Looking to try on and possibly buy another Suomy. I had a sweet Spec1R that just no longer fit me and I sold it to Dip Dungles (Shannon)....hey..you still got that?

    Anyways, Im pretty picky about fit and need to try them on...online does me no good.

    Thanks!

    I run a medium vandal and will be racing this weekend if you're up there and want to try it on. AFAIK they are not stocked anywhere local.

    I wear a Suomy Spec 1R, medium. Find me at T11 this weekend. You're welcome to try that on as well.

    I need to try that on. I ordered one of the new SRsports and he said it fits like a vandal. been years since I tried on and I think it fit good but I forget. I wear a small though so it might not mean much of anything to try it on. the Spec1r/Extreme fits me great. the SR isn't even available till the middle of next month anyway.

    Re: Local Suomy helmet dealer?

    I think Im a large...the Spec1R I sold to Shannon was an XL and after it was broken in it was too big. Im a med in Shoei and from what Im reading they say Suomy runs small, so anticipate 1 size larger than the other major brands...

    The search continues...

    Re: Local Suomy helmet dealer?

    Let me know if you find anything. The S1R fit well after I added smaller cheek pads, but I really wouldn't mind a obnoxious colored one in size large. I keep looking at the new HJC's like these ones....

    Can't decide until I try them all on really.

    Thought about it, but I can't do it. Absolutely love the look of that helmet.

    Besides it doesn't match the Evo LOL.

    my current helmet was listed as an xs but I swapped out the cheek pads from a previous sm because that's the only difference between them. I think its xs/sm is one shell size then m/lg is another and xl is another. I could be wrong on that but I think that's how it went with that helmet.

    Yeah something like that....might only be 2 shell sizes too....oh I don't know, Ive been looking at Suomy, AGV and Shoei too...either way I'm positive I can make this lid fit perfect.

    This could be the start of a very expensive helmet collection....

    Hell yes! Just take the traction control off first or there will be zero tire roasting....

    Seriously, $150??? That will go along way for your tires!
