I would never buy a used helmet. You should try on as many helmets as possible and buy the one the fits the best. Unless you want to die, then buy a used one.

So next year when I finish paying my bike and wrx they should have a v6 turbo forester or forester sti. Then I will once again be on the top of the food chain. For now its a new fourm like
GSX-R.COM or something

2005's going to rock with the arrival of the Forester STi and the turbo Legacy.

I've never heard of a 6 cylinder turbo Forester coming out. Rumours?

I just tried on about 15 different brain buckets and the one that fit the best was KBC for ~$180! Of course, I just wanted plain old black. You have to pay extra for the fancy paint job...
Road Rider on Monterey and Cycle Gear on Meridian seem to have the best selection in San Jose.

NEVER buy a used helmet. Helmets should be replaced every 5 years. The styrofoam liner ages and loses its ability to stop your head effectively.

Go with Arai, Suomy, or Shoei. And the places everyone mentioned are good. Just make sure you try it on before you buy because some helmets fit better than others.
