I found a Soumy Vandal (XL) with the "Aces" paint scheme at a dealer for $239. It looks like an awesome deal to me. MSRP is $369.95. I found one on ebay for $160, but it has 3 days left, and most Suomy helmets are going for $400 or more.
Real question here: Dealer said their prices might change after a show in about 10 days...What are the chances of this being good for me? Anyone have any problems with suomy quality? Thinking of buying this helmet today, as it is the only one they have.:help:
Found a Suomy Vandal (Aces, XL) for $239. ebay prices are around $400- one is $170 now, but has three days left. Should I jump on it? Dealer says prices might change after a show in 10 days- I don't know if this will be good or bad...:help:

suomy helmets cost $400 for a reason. they are the best of the best. if you can get a good deal, i say go for it. your head will be very happy. :dthumb:
I believe it! :dthumb: Here's a question- how do I get that nasty label off the lens? I was sitting on an RSV with the helmet on, and couldn't see to put it back. :nonod: Had to take the lid off to move the bike.
I'm this close to getting the helmet. Just worried my mom will flip. If she doesn't, maybe I;ll take her to look at bikes this weekend.
i am unfamiliar with this label you speak of, mainly because i own shoei helmets (the 2nd best of the best). is the label not just a friction sticker? that's all i have encountered. if not, perhaps a suomy owner will chime in here with a suggestion.

IMO...arai, suomy and shoei are pretty interchangeable. it all depends on the way it fits your head. they are all very good quality helmets, and they all fit differently.
I just bought an Arai on ebay 2 days ago $214. has not got here tho. looks really nice fom the pic's . and of course 2 hrs later there are like 10 more in my price range. Don't be in a hurry someone is always selling stuff you want.
The label on the Suomy Visor is a frictions sticker that can be peeled off easily...you will just have to clean the visor then...buy that bad boy, you won't be regret it!
Yeah- went to get it today. That sticker is just a cling- peels right off. Only one problem- dude told me $300 + tax. F THAT! The woman told me $239. He did say to check back the 19th. "When the new colors come out, that's when the sales will be released":cursin: This close!! One good thing though- the moms is cool with the idea. :whew: At the Aprilia dealer, she said about wanting a Vespa. At the Kawi and Zuki, she was drooling over the cruisers. :lol: :skep: :scratch: Can't say we have the same taste, but that's a big relief.:angelhap:
