High Speed Spill...

[Yz250JdT250]

Hey i had a high speed spill on my dirtbike and landed hitting my head first (im fine, just a minor concussion). But my helmet is cooked now. It's an Oneal Mutiny helmet, kinda stinks it has less than a season on it and now needs to be replaced because that inner styrofoam stuff is squished. My question is does anyone know whether i can get it repaired or does it need to be replaced?

Replace it. Don't take chances with your noggin.

Your helmet is toast. Motorcycle helmets are designed for one time only use, unlike a football helmet which can take quite a bit of abuse. Put that bad boy on the wall and let it tell the story.

Get a new one. That helmet just paid for itself.

So even if i send it back to oneal they wont show me any mercy? What about if i am an authorized dealer of their products? It was such an expensive helmet...

Would they possibly replace it for cheaper than new if i sent mine back?

Who can say other than them? Not sure why they would... it did it's job.

Definately replace it. In fact go and buy an even more expensive helmet. Its the most important part of your kit.
