Helmet Shopping in Bay Area/Peninsula

Hey all, after several years away from the track I'm going to get back into it and I need a new bucket for my head.

Any tips on where to go to get fitted? Lots of motorcycle stores, but I want an auto helmet. Thanks in advance for the good tips.

Seth

i heard there is a shop in santa cruz area. are you looking for a specific brand?

i ordered mine here: http://www.apexperformance.net/

awesome service and advice if you want to get fitment advice. i was told each brand can be a little different. no issue with my order and fitment. you can measure your head with a tape. mention rennlist to see if they still offer a 10% discount.

you are right, SA2010 is mandatory for DE.

I got mine at Helmet City in Oakland. I ordered online, so I'm not positive if they have a storefront. Might want to call first.

Agree! I just bought a new helmet there two months ago. The guys are great and so patient...I tried on helmets for an hour! And surprisingly, the least expensive option fit me best
