try out brands and sizes locally then buy it on ebay


But I would suggest trying to get brand new. You don't want a used helmet... not only for hygienic reasons (eww!), but also because you want to minimize the chances of that helmet already being dropped. It might look good on the outside but if there is damage to the internal foam, you'll never know - until it's maybe too late.

Motostranos selection is the best out of the local shops. Check out Moto Neko Parts and give them a call. They usually give lower prices if you call in and ask. They had huge discounts on helmets before and always have discounts on Alpinestars gear. No tax too.
Moto Neko is tight! I was looking at a Shark RSI and everywhere has it for waaaaay more. Thanks again everyone.

i said ebay because it's the best place you can get a deal for on arai's.

i have the rx7rr corsair i love the helmet. super light less than 3.5 lbs so you wont ever feel the weight on your neck. great ventilation, great anti-sweat material on the cheeks.. of course wear ear plugs but you should with any helmet. i think the corsair is one of the best looking helmets shape wise..



the shark rsr2 looks pimp, if i were to buy another helmet it would be that.

i've had two arai's before this that have saved my life. it fits my head great and i don't really like graphics .. you can get a solid corsair for
~$400 on ebay.
