Hello all,
I have been hunting the bike shops in and around Perth for either a Shoei or an Arai in a certain design in size XS for the wife, but the choice is very limited to say the least.
Does anybody know any good online sites that have a wide range of size and design as the wife has chosen a style and design but nobody in Perth seem to have it in the right design and none seem to stock the size XS!
Any help would be much appreciated,
NCFC

WE used to have bikes and have our UK helmets which now will be out of date and unsafe in Aus but kept them for garden riding if we got a bike here which so far remains on the fantasy to do list.
Here's some sites knicked from elsewhere...

Hello all,
I have been hunting the bike shops in and around Perth for either a Shoei or an Arai in a certain design in size XS for the wife, but the choice is very limited to say the least.
Does anybody know any good online sites that have a wide range of size and design as the wife has chosen a style and design but nobody in Perth seem to have it in the right design and none seem to stock the size XS!
Any help would be much appreciated,

If you are looking at a Shoei, you might also want to look at online stores in the states if you know the type & size.
Just checked my newest helmet the Shoei Diabolic, paid here $900, on this site : http://morepower.info/4Xxtxe2555378/...p-29885-52414/
US $398 (not too sure about delivery costs) but still decidedly cheaper.

We are in Binningup, not too far away from you. Only been here since Feb though, so we are pretty new to the area and still finding our feet. Which part of Norfolk are you from? And how long have you been in Australind?

Binningup is good, very quiet and not much going on at the best of times. But we came here for the wide open spaces and a house by the sea and thats exactly what we have.
We lived right in the centre of the city back in the UK, a ten minute walk to Carrow road in terraced house with no parking. So to have a house with a double garage, driveway, back garden and a two minute walk to the beach is just what the doctor ordered.
