Where's the best place to go and purchase a slimfit open face helmet ?
whereabouts are you based harleyrob?
North Wilts m8.
have you tried blade group or the old george whites in swindon at all?
No I haven't yet. Someone said about a place out Salisbury way but can't remember the name.
erm there's hayball but I've never been so wouldn't know if they're any good or not
how about fowlers if it's not too far from ya?
The old George Whites isnt worth the time of day. I'd try Fowlers lots of choice and really helpful staff who can ensure it fits properly.Quote:

Not sure I have heard of slimfit before.
Know of a few fatheads mind ::)
Never been there myself and no idea if it's any good but their is Helmet City in West Bay (nice place to ride to) which might be worth checking out too?

Riders in Brislington cater for people going through a midlife crisis and sell all the kit to go with it. You could try them. ;)

Wow that was good - you've had much more luck than me. The last few times I've been in there it's just be odd sized stuff which has been sat on the shelf for ages. My OH tried to get some trousers there too recently and gave up. I guess worth a try as you say if you're close but personally I wouldn't make a special trip.
maybe i'm more of a universal size than most :P
No...you've got to be ODD sized to get anything there :P ;D ;D ;D (or very lucky ;) :))Quote:

no wonder it was so easy to find something to fit :D
I'd go for a Davida helmet. they do very nice open face helmets, but not cheep. Take a look at their website. Blade group sell them as well. I'm thinking of getting one for myself.
Lightning Services over at Hilperton are Davida agents.
