Default Need a helmet?

I know that some of us here do not wear helmets. However, in California, we are required by law. So I have purchased a few from this guy on ebay and thought that he has a good selection. I also found his prices to comparable. Thought the link could be useful.

Good selection and decent prices.

My wife has been bugging me to get a helmet, so my birthday present is a helmet. I don't really like the ones that cover your ears, so I'll be getting a Skid Lid in flat black from Spookytooth.

Are Spookytooth helmets DOT approved? The eBay vendor's are not.

Thank you. I checked them out and I like the German helmets. Unfortunately, they use leather on their helmet strap.
