Re: Would you buy or use a used helmet, or get a new one?

Over here,when you buy a new bike, the dealer customarily (I think that's the right word - I mean "it's the custom") gives you two things free of charge. A brake disc lock & a helmet. I chose the Airoh "top one" 3/4, at 100 euros. When I got my money back after a month (because of all the problems I had with the Chinese crap that I'd bought) I didn't need either a lock or a helmet for the gz,(as I'd got the ones he gave me before) so he knocked me 100 euros off the price. I could have picked any helmet in the shop, but there weren't any at the silly prices mentioned above.
slight change of subject - there's a notice in the shop. Buy any bike over 600cc & get your choice of 300 euros worth of accessories. Must be a sign of the times.
