Anyone know where to get a helmet in South Florida?

I know there's plenty of websites to buy SA or M-rated helmets, but I'm looking for a place where I can go and try it on. Does anyone know of any retailers or motorcycle stores around here?

Thanks guys

Just go to a couple of local bike shops and try on helmelts. When you find the one you like, note the model and order it online for a lot less. I have bought a few helmets from www.helmetshop.com in Daytona Beach.

Call me when you have a chance. You still have my number. My cuz works at a Bike Shop. Might be able to get you the helmet at cost or close enough.

There's helmets for sale at Moroso? That's exactly what I'm going to need it for! Do they rent any helmets out as well?

I don't think I ever got your number that day, my mind was all over the place! I didn't even get your name until we got back down to South FL hahah Thank you for offering to help, does he have SA-rated helmets? I need this for the DE I told you about and I'm going to find out tomorrow if they accept M-rated ones. Why don't you shoot me a PM with your number or your cousin's info, I'll get in touch with him and see what kind of brands they have and whether they will work.

They usually have a few helmets that they rent out for around 10 bucks for the night.

But I also got screwed and had to buy mine at Moroso (or I could not run that night). But I like it. It's a G-Force helmet and I got it for around $125.
