Anyone have any experience with these helmets? I have a chance to pick one up at my local dealership for a great price. Just want to know what I may be getting into before I purchase....

I would not recommend them. *I have one that eats faceshields at 26 bucks a pop. *Switched to HJC. *

Not sure if I got a dud or something because there are others that have no problems. *In any case, the design of the faceshield sucks. *Both sides (where it attaches to the helmet) are C-shaped instead of completely enclosing the hole for the bolt. *The plastic is brittle and these are the pieces that break off.

If you have a ten dollar head you buy a ten dollar helmet. I make sure they are marked SNELL before I buy. http://www.snowmobileworld.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif
