Recommended DFW Helmet Shops?

[luis]

I realized my old ax helmet is SA2000. I need to pick up something SA2005 or better (preferably SA2010). Do y'all have any recommended shops that won't break the bank?

We went looking for a helmet for the , yesterday. We went to five motorcycle shops in the HEB area, but we had little luck. It is not easy to find a SNELL open-faced helmet at a motorcycle shop, these days. Worse, the ones we found were SNELL 2005. We might just end up buying online.

If anyone finds a good local source, then we would be interested, too.

BTW - I may jump on the package deal since my co-driver will need a helmet!

[jrj512]
