Default Winecountrymotorsports and HJC HX-10 helmet...
Was just looking on the http://winecountrymotorsports.com site, they have the HJC HX-10 carbon fibre helmet on sale for $584.

I have had this helmet for a number of years and LOVE it ... I am almost tempted to buy another as they are no longer made I believe...

just passing on the info in case anyone is in the market for a great helmet.

no affiliation etc

HJC was supposed to come out with HX-10 SA2010 mid-January, it's mid-March now and still no word. So I went with Arai at the end of January.

It is a good deal for sure though!

I just received my fresh smelling Bell S2R 2005, replacing my gag reflex inducing Bell S2R 2005.
$279 + Hans ancors installed free helmet bag and free shipping. Should be legal lang after I start gagging again.

I have not found another helmet with a larger opening yet and I have no use for a visor.
You can find them for $225.00 but could not find one with the Hans achors installed.

The Stand21 Porsche Motorsports full face has a pretty wide eyeport ... but is a little pricey around 1999euros ...

Well 2,000 Euros are a bit over $900 for Arai GP-6S

BTW I tried HJC Si-12, and it didn't fit my head as good as Arai...

That's just crazy talk + my wife says I don't use my head anyway. I only wear it because you can't attach a Hans to your ears..

Oh god no! It is beautiful but I could do a lot with the money you save from a $5k helmet...

If I cared that little about my money I would've gotten a .2 RS
