Author Message   Cliffz Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 06:52 pm:        Who manufactures the Buell helmets that Harley sells. I am selling one on E bay and was asked the question.   Stealthxb Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 06:53 pm:        Pretty sure its Shoei.   Glitch Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 06:57 pm:        The Pole position one is AGV. Don't know about the others. Mine says on the label on the inside.   Glitch Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 07:02 pm:        On the Buell web site it says KBC sizing. http://www.kbchelmet.com And HJC. http://www.hjchelmets.com And AGV. www.agv.com Which one do you have   Cliffz Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 07:05 pm:        I have the blue silver and black one   Cliffz Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 07:07 pm:        I can't find anything on the tag its too worn   Stealthxb Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 07:09 pm:        I guess I was wrong... I was told at the dealer mine was Shoei. But after looking at all the models offered on the Buell site they are AGV, HJC and KBC. http://www.buell.com/en_us/products/apparelaccessories/productsmenu.asp?Menu_ID= 1&ID=73   Glitch Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 07:16 pm:        This one is a KBC. Don't worry Stealth, I'm wrong quite often, just ask my wife!   M1combat Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 07:23 pm:        That's a KBC VR-1. VERY nice helmet if you ask me. I have the grey/black/silverone.   420at145mph Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 07:31 pm:        i like this one   Goldenboy9r Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 08:32 pm:        its def. not shoei, a car pulled out in front of me 3 months ago and it split the front of if in half.   Glitch Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 09:05 pm:        Glad yer OK. Sounds like the helmet did it's job.   Prof_stack Posted on Monday, June 28, 2004 - 09:22 pm:        The blue/black Buell helmet I bought in '01 was definitely made by Shoei. It cost me about $300 if I remember right. I was riding the Blast back then.   Darthane Posted on Tuesday, June 29, 2004 - 02:47 am:        I have that iridescent Firebolt helmet. My HJC fits better, but I LOVE the buckle closure on the Buell one. No more fiddling with damned d-rings. Goldenboy9r - that's EXACTLY what a good helmet should do. Helmets are one-use only (ONLY!)items. The fact that it split means that it bled off energy that otherwise would have been transferred to your head or used in bouncing the helmet off whatever surface it struck, possibly snapping your neck.   Glitch Posted on Tuesday, June 29, 2004 - 07:32 am:        Yeah what Bryan said.   Two_buells Posted on Tuesday, June 29, 2004 - 10:02 pm:        the older Black and silver "WFO" helmet is a HJC the Firebolt flip-up is a HJC also. I have both.   Court Posted on Wednesday, June 30, 2004 - 04:52 am:        Hmmmm..one of my Buell helmets says "Bell - USA"...go figure.   Outrider Posted on Wednesday, June 30, 2004 - 10:41 pm:        Gee...that's easy, but I will pass on the opportunity to do any age bashing. Remember Bubba Shobert's Bell Ad. His big claim was "It'll mess your hair!" Forgot the name of the model, but HD private labeled it.
