Where do you guys get your racing helmets?
 
If I am ever to run 13's or faster one day (This Summer.. ahem), where would I have to go to get a Helmet? Where do all you guys shop for yours?

Give me a store name instead of a website because I got the typical asian BIG head so I'm gonna want to try one on before purchasing it.

Thanks!

I just bought a used Shoei RF-700 helmet. I got it locally, but Ebay usually has some pretty good deals. I would go to a motorcycle shop and try some on, then buy it online once you find your favorite size/style.

No clue on any style of helmet... show me a picture of what you bought yourself.. I don't want to look like a moron for wearing a real gay one. I know nothing about helmets, as I've never owned a bike before. If you guys could posts pictures, that would be great. Say, a racing helmet showdown??

I haven't found any open face helmets that have a SNELL M95, SA95, K98, or 2005 certification.
