Found a great deal at a Estate Sale this weekend
« on: February 16, 2015, 01:43:06 PM »

My wife drags me to these estate sales every weekend and from time to time we find a cool kitchen item, piece of furniture or original oil painting but this weekend was way better.  I found a like-new condition Harley-Davidson Men's FXRG Modular Helmet with Retractable Sun Shield for $100!!  




I also got a second modular helmet for $47 and it's really nice, my wife wanted that one.

Here is what hers looks like.  Not bad for $47.

Yep.  The FXRG is made by HJC and branded as the "RPHA-Max" and the HD Stock II helmet is the "HJC CL Max II", both have excellent reviews so I am pretty stoked about this find.  I still have my GMax GM54s as well which isn't too bad itself.  I will be selling the Bell Pit Boss and another half helmet I have, I don't plan on riding any more with those anyway so don't need them as backup.  That will get me down to 4 total helmets.  :thumbup:

Just keep'em.  I have 10 helmets and whatever strikes my mood at the time determines which I wear.  I don't have any backup helmets....just helmets I feel or don't feel like wearing.  Besides, no one wants to buy your used sweaty head Texas helmet.   :stickpoke:

I see helmets all day long on craigslist but here in Texas I wouldn't ever consider one unless I was using it as an emergency flower pot.  ???

The review is in, that helmet is hot...the sweaty kind.  I think it has more to do with my windshield and fairing blocking most of the wind though.  It's a great looking helmet, I think I will be able to share time with my GMAX, really not a ton of difference.

I only wear full face helmets in the winter and even then it's only on those really really cold days.  Never have worn a full face in any kind of heat.  gives me a headache.
