Ive just got onto some Bandit Helmets $550.00 + $20 postage if anyone is interested. tinted visors are $20 each if you order with the helmet. the only catch is i need to order 5 at a time to get them for that price. normal price in Australia is $1100-$1200. if i can get 4 others who want one ill order them asap. let me know if your interested. im ordering a size 7 1/2 for myself which is equal to a large AGV or large Arai.

What model mate? Do you mean the actual original BANDIT. I was chasing the old RX8. If you can get one, count me in. let me know....... A black bandit may suffice though.

http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/upload/sizechart1x.gif here is the size chart used to determine what size helmet you need. simpson helmets are measured in hat size so all you need to do is measure your head or compare your current helmet size to the hat size . TO ENSURE AN ACCURATE FIT, use this chart to order your correct helmet size. Carefully measure around your head, above the ears. Take the measurement, in inches or centimeters, referring to the sizing chart below for your correct hat/helmet size. Helmet must fit properly for optimum performance. its taking a little longer than i thought to get this organised. im dealing with an australian supplier not american so if there are any problems we arnt dealing with someone 10000km away. bear with me if your wanting one of these helmets as i want to get everything right so there are no problems after we purchase. thanks Ozkat

Oz. I might be in need of one of these babies a bit sooner than I thought. My helmet got run over by my Hilux tonight and it's slightly fucked. No I wasn't driving before you ask. How long before you can find out details mate or else I'll have to head out for another helmet. Don't have anything now! By the way, it looks pretty groovy when your helmet goes flat and then springs back to a shape, kinda resembling a helmet again. Don't try it though.....

SV your not too late im just waiting to hear back from the US with firm pricing and delivery times. as it stands now the price for a Simpson Bandit is $550 delivered to me. then if i need to post these to anyone it will be $20 Australia wide. at the moment i can only get them in white for that price but im waiting on prices for black bandits. (black is not a standard Simpson color and they charge extra to change the color) the helmets will not be more than $550+$20 if i need to send them to you. tinted visors will be avalible at $20 each but that price is not %100 confirmed. if anyone is interested in buying one of these helmets i need you to let me know what SIZE you need. see the sizing chart i posted earlier. the sooner i get confirmed numbers of helmets required the sooner you will get them. i will order them as soon as i get 5 confirmed orders (6 including mine) PLEASE BE AWARE THESE HELMETS COME WITH NO ADR COMPLIANCE. and therefore are only for offroad and racing use. you may email me direct at shayynne@bigpond.com or message me through this web site with your order. please put Simpson Bandit in the Subject info. thanks Ozkat

I got a helmet on the net from Germany before and it told me to use the helmet size guide on the site (similar to that one up there) so I chose as it guided me and then when it showed up it was way too small. I then learnt that all helmets fit differently and only give you a chart as a guide. Consequently I'm a bit hesitant on the sizing mate. Do Revolution stock them on Ferry Road so I might get to put one on and see what the sizes are like? I'm still up for 3 mate. The other guy who wants one had the same problem before as well and wanted to get one on his head. My Shoei was a 56-57 M and fitted great. Paul's helmet fits me also and the sticker says 54 XS - go figure? As far as the ADR compliance stickers are concerned I might know a man that knows a man etc etc (if you get my drift).
