nochknstrps Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Hinds used to sell them but Hinds used to sell alot of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Iron Pony can get them for you. They are sold via Parts Unlimited. Hinds certainly won't be able to get you one and the other shops might like HNW, etc...Problem you'll run into is someone having them in stock...

yotaman88210 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 I find it funny IRON PONY doesnt stock the majority of helmet brands... I mean, at least have floor models for fitment so people can try them on and order. It IS the largest Motorcycle supply warehouse. Why not have display models of new lids then just sell the display models discounted at the end of each season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exSRAaron Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 I agree Yota, but I'm sure they're making enough money with all those poopy helmets, why bother with the $800 ones.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman88210 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Because its IP man!! They should have it all... in the words of Hillbilly " Iron Ponys got it" .... or something like that! ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is a personal deal that stems from way back when. But, they have Arai, Shoei, and had Shark, but due to really poor sales, they dropped them...They have everything else from there and below...

Moto-Brian Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 You guys are all splitting hairs. I challenge any of you to go to ANY dealer and find more high end helmets than what is at Pony. Both MX and street.Vemar? AGV? Tell me where you'll find those anywhere... Nolan? Not the high end stuff... As I stated, they tried Shark and they are a pretty well regarded lid company. The amount of sales was poor and thus, they didin't stay in the shop. They have to cater to the masses of course and I think they do a decent job.Fact of the matter, most web dealers don't even keep the high end lids in stock and drop ship or take 4 plus days to get them to you. Pony can do the same and probably save you some dough, as well...I mean, why hasn't anyone asked why they don't carry X-Lite? Why they don't carry OGK, etc? Come on guys...

They are a very sweet lid for sure. Hell, I used to be sponsored by them back in the late 90s up until we went Suomy. They were fairly heavy, but felt great and were quiet and easy to work on... Company was pretty cool to deal with, as well. Good choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not have display models of new lids then just sell the display models discounted at the end of each season? You would be surprised how decisions are actually made around there. I was their Graphic Designer for a whole 3 months! (lol)...Still, no better place to shop though.
