Which one?

The AC-11 Zeek

Or the AC-11 Revenge MC-5

Or the AC-11 Maximus MC-5

Just curious, what did it run you and where did you get it?

I've got the yates version, the "Yikes" in black w/flames look.

good helmet, breath guard works.  Not nearly as quiet as my LT-12.  Also fits a little loose.  Might have gotten a small rather than medium.

I bought my helmet at the Iron Pony here in Columbus for I believe $216 out the door. :mrgreen: Helmet has a little more noise than the RF900 I had, but that is fine because the ventilation is so much better. The breath box that comes with the helmet works real nice as well. :grin:

Ive been looking at a AC-11 Yikes. Found one for $155 plus shipping. I'm hoping to find someone round Dayton who has them so I can try one on. Looks like a large would be the right size but I'm not sure. I have a Fulmer now that is bout 7 years old. It hasn't been worn much but the foam is prob startin to break down.

Have you checked out Competition accessories in Springfield, they should have them. It is worth the drive to Westerville "near Columbus" to go to the Iron Pony if you have never been there. They are the largest accessories dealer in the Midwest if not the United States. The store is about 110,000 sq ft of pure heaven although you won't find an AC-11 for $155 shipped. I think that their website has them for $180 shipped. :smile:

If anyone in Ohio needs to know how to get there, private message me!!

Hi Team,

I just picked up a HJC AC-14 Kast helmet. (Blue/silver/black)

Apparently the shipment was destined for your shores but the container went astray and landed at the door of the NZ agents. It seems they decided to keep the shipment instead of sending the container off-shore again.

The helmets were heavily discounted and mine cost $209.00NZ which equates to around $150US. I dont know what they cost in the US but Im really pleased except for one snag.

As everyone in NZ now has a new HJC helmet, there are no tinted shields left in the country and wont be till May/June when the next order is filled.

Help please - can someone give me a source for a shield at a good price?

 :thanks:
