Anaximander Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) For sale brand-new, unused, size S (56) Sparco Casco Air RF-5W 8859 Carbon-Fiber/Fiberglass Helmet w/ Hans Clips pre-installed. This helmet meets the FIA8859-2015 and New Snell SA2015 ratings. The helmet was only tried on with a baklava for fit and then placed back in its box and kept in a climate controlled environment. It was purchase late last year and never worn. This is a super comfortable helmet with terrific visibility. I usually require a medium size helmet but this one fits perfectly. The salesman at Wine Country Motor Sports pointed out that if the helmet is slightly loose, it will provide much less protection for its intended purpose. Original cost is $750. Will sell for $500 plus insured shipping in the CONUS.http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=15667&stc=1http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=15668&stc=1http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=15669&stc=1http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=15670&stc=1 Edited July 25, 2019 by Astro Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panamericano Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Mike, It just seems like it because we are all puffed up about our sevens! I tend to agree with Croc's original observation. However, I bet the forum's extended family includes some long suffering "others" whose heads have been not swollen by a bunch of silly cars.

Nick OTeen Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) The helmet was only tried on with a baklava for fit and then placed back in its box...If there's any left, you might think about throwing in some in to "sweeten" the deal. I love that stuff. Edited July 26, 2019 by Nick O'Teen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anaximander Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) ROFLMAO!!! I guess I will have to eat my balaclava in shame! Nick O'Teen, It is illegal for me to leave my home and traverse on public streets here in Florida with a balaclava. However, it would be legal to have my head covered with baklava but I am afraid that I would be assaulted or eaten by zombie foodies. Somebody please buy my new Sparco helmet! They are uber comfortable and you won't have to put baklava on your head/face to enjoy the fit! The reason for the sale is that I decided to enjoy my Storker by taking it out on the road, going to the mountains with it and going to occasional car shows or cruise ins and I don't need a racing helmet with all of the safety features for those activities. Sparco's website lists the technology features as: Light-weight carbon-Kevlar/fiberglass construction New Medium/Large size which uses the lighter and more compact shell Hans clips pre-installed Anodized aluminum chin strap hardware Removable, washable lining Wind tunnel optimized venting with anti-fog air channels Pre-molded interior to accommodate drink tubes and an intercom system Snell SA2015 and FIA 8859-2015 approved Edited July 26, 2019 by Astro Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
