Bonneville America Forums Forums Rider Safety Forums Helmets and Gear speaking of helmets

I never passed judgement in my original post. I also never said that the more you pay the better the quality of the item. I simply laid out the facts. Helmet manufacturers perform their own DOT testing. Snell rated helmets usually are higher in price.

I also agree that salesmen use that question to scare people into buying more than they need. But, someone asked a question, and I had, at the least, a little bit of information to give.

I'm curious to know where you exactly pick up that I am suggesting that his choice was inferior and that I am suggesting the OP spend the most money possible? If it was the last line of the post, I get that. Maybe I should have changed the way it was phrased. I did not intend it to be that way at all.
