I got this brand new off Ebay for $140. Weighs 2.5 pounds and not too many people have them. Best graphics by far...IMO

I would have to suggest the Fly Lite II, We sell many other brands but these seem to be one of the top of the line helmets on the market without the top of the line price :cool:

whatever you decide ..get a good one ...money is not the
main consideration here..
proper fit is important so be sure to try on several before making your decision .....
this is the reason i do not mail order ,unless i have already tried on the exact helmet as i would order.

2 r's rider,

If that comment about buying online was for me, I totally agree about trying an exact one on before you decide to buy online. The local shop wanted almost $300 for that helmet I got for $140 on ebay...do your homework.

just a coment in general,I have seen a few riders do this in the past & had some regrets ....take no offense ..
i was not intended to be offensive to you at all

It's a SUOMY. Pronounced..swo-me..kinda weird.
The reason I got it so cheap was, they are discontinuing all their designs and comming out with a new line, so, the main distributor was blowing them out to dealers for $100 a peice, then the guy I bought it from sold it for $140.:D

They are extremely well built and pass a very strict set of European standards, and Brittish standards. I believe even tougher than US standards for safety. 100% fiberglass is what makes it so light.


Go to suomy.com...check them out, even though it's the old line.
