To the top... I'm also looking for a helmet. Is there such a thing as an Open Face SA2005 helmet, or do I have to get a motorcycle helmet for open face?

Also, can anyone recommend a place that has high quality helmets at a lower price than the competition? Or, a place that has a large selection to try on? Do any places give a BMW CCA discount?

I'd prefer a place between West LA and Valencia.

Thanks!

call up auto talent. they're in West LA and they probably would know where you could go or maybe even they can order a helmet for you.

Check out this link:

Unfortunately, I bought one somewhere else before I found this. They are usually about $50 more. Basic helmet, but you probably don't need much more if you are just starting out. I believe they also have a BMWCCA discount.
