What kind you looking for. full face vented? i dont much about helmets. havent worn one since i road the half cheese…

My brother has a newer black vented helmet. he used it one when he first bought his bike, then went to a half helmet or whatever its called.

He got it from pioneer motorsports. he paid over a 100 bucks. i bet he will sell it for 60.

If your interested i will se if i can get the make and maybe a pic.

JBGTI says the same thing… by design the ear flaps, as i’ll refer to them, create a whistling noise that annoyed me when i wore the arai… other than that it was LEAPS AND BOUNDS better than my HJC CL-14 (but in its defense, i spent 150 OTD with the helmet and a silver windshield) Not to shabby for a new helmet

not sure what size you need, this is a large. $75 never worn out, just tried on and found out it’s a little too big for me.
