Bell Star Carbon Race Day helmet & transition shield.
I bought a Bell Star Carbon Race Day helmet and Bell-brand transition shield almost a year ago.
I've had it on my head twice...used it one day to and from work...a grand total of 3 miles round trip. Otherwise it's still in the box.
The transition shield is still in the original wrapper.
Why am I selling? This was an outstanding deal on an outstanding helmet/shield combination and I just thought they were way cool. But I've been pretty vocal about being an Arai guy exclusively, and I am truth be told. There is nothing at all wrong with the helmet, or the brand as everyone knows. It basically means my loss is your gain. $700 original, I paid $340 for the helmet new on close-out, and another $120 for the shield. I'll sell them both for $400...half-price for each.
Link touting my purchase.

Being that he is a plant manager and they usually have big heads I am willing to bet it is a XXL.

Re: Bell Star Carbon Race Day helmet & transition shield.
Sorry, MEDIUM, below is the Bell sizing chart. Fits size-wise about the same as the premium Arai and Shoei helmets I've tried, where I also wear a medium. Not sure about everyone, but I buy them VERY snug and let them break in. I'm basically biting my inner cheeks when they are new.
And big head, for big brain. Don't be a hater...and get back to work dammit.
That was funny however...and occasionally true.

Re: Bell Star Carbon Race Day helmet & transition shield.
Got ya. I will try to see about the size I believe I wear a medium in my Star Carbon. Then I will see about putting money together. To anyone thinking about it.... do it .... the helmet is a great one.

I'm considering it. Getting to the point where I need a new lid. I'll be up there for the next track day.

Re: Bell Star Carbon Race Day helmet & transition shield.
I've now listed it on eBay. This might allow anyone interested to pay via CC or PayPal if that is of interest. It also has a Make Offer listing, it's priced a little higher on eBay than above...so if interested, make an offer. Again, price above was $400 for club members, so that amount is already on the table. And I'll hand deliver it to a club member. This deal just keeps getting sweeter.
