anybody know anybody that owns a Vemar Jiano? I was in Italy (Rome) and could not find a dealer that had 1 if any in stock. I need to find a dealer in the Pa/MD/DE area that stocks them so I can at least try one on. Thanks

GMax 68s Crusader. I love it. I had a Shoei a few years ago that was really nice but the GMax IMO is just as nice and cost a 3rd of the price. The visor on the GMax is clearer than the Shoei as well.
I wear a Skid Lid as well.

I just got my 68s Crusader Monday. First helmet, so Im still getting used to wearing one. Not sure of exactly how its "supposed" to feel. Its not too tight or loose just different for now.
I sit in my room and watch tv with the visor up to get used to it since I dont have a bike yet.

HJC SyMax 2 modular. Great fit, flip down visor (I'll never lose another pair of sunglasses) Vents keep cool.

Well once you get out of the room and onto the bike I hope you like the Crusader. I guess there are things that you could do in your room that may require a helmet though...

That's what my main riding helmet is. Except mine's just a plain grey.

When my brother and I were kids we were going to buy a helmet for my mom for Christmas because she banged her head on absolutely everything in the house. It was kind of funny whenever we'd hear her scream and curse... we'd just look at each other and say "mom hit her head again". The first time, it's a tragedy, the second time you feel sorry but the 1,000th time, sorry, it's just plain funny.

Its funny that people would take it upon themselves to lecture Outlaw on what he should be wearing. I know ,I resent non bike riders who like to tell me how dangerous bikes are. We are adults and if we want advise on what to wear we will ask for it thank you very much! I am speaking for myself here and not outlaw so I hope he doesn't mind my comments.

Vemar is handled by Motonation in the US...they pick the dealers, here is their web site and at the top of the page, there is a link to the dealers they have.
Motonation Home Page
I dont see any dealers that carry the street helmets in PA
1 dealer in DE that does

1 dealer in MD

I feel the same way about people that preach about wearing seat belts.
