[Bigbill]

Judging by the seller rating it will arrive, and as the listing states they run small like all of the stuff coming from china these days.

 

[Bigbill]

I receive lots of stuff from China like fishing equipment and jewelry. No problem going through customs.

Looks cool Bill. Will look great on the shelf even if ya never wear it.

 

[justintendo]

wont be an issue receiving the helmet..stuff ships thru ebay from china all the time a-ok...just likely is not good for more than what you intend...which is a wall hanger. who knows what the actual safety of the thing is..
its frustrating how hard it is finding some of the husqvarna accessories..

It has a DOT rating on it. I'd like to get a 2015 helmet but there around $500

there are lots of counterfeit things on ebay..usually when the price is nice, or a quarter of the real thing...kind of throws a red flag..

probably 85% of the helmets sold in the world are made in China (and Taiwan, Korea). Especially your house brands (Troy Lee, Fly, Thor, Fox, Klim, etc).

I'm not saying that there isn't a ton of counterfeiting going on there though. ...and it sure is "weird" how production overages end up on the gray market.

for sure, just weird how cheap this helmet is and ships direct from china..

It's your head, think about that.
I always remember the old 1980s Bell helmet ads. If you have a $5 head, buy a $5 dollar helmet. (or something to that effect).
It's also about supporting the sport and its manufacturers. So buyer beware and choose with care and thought.
Heck like stated above these may be fine and be overstock or slight mark factory seconds from the factory product contract. Or at the opposite end full on cheap fakes that will not give proper protection when needed.
All of this just conjecture and food for thought.

The official Husqvarna MX helmets are made by Airoh (Aviator 2.1) and Scorpion(VX-20 Air)

Ahh, but Chinee Helmet look good on shelf.

I don't remember what I paid for mine but it was ridiculous. It came out of the U.K. And took like a month and half to get to me in which time there was a customs problem and on top of that since it took that long I had to intercept the package because I move... Fiasco. I bought a bunch of the gear even before I bought a new husky haha it matched the old bikes and I always wanted husky gear. Would like to get another helmet but probably not
The helmet is a scorpion.. Unsure of model but it's probably the nicest helmet I've ever owned.
