I can't help you but posting the brand and model of helmet might help.

dude, think twice before putting your head in a helmet that you have no idea if its been in a crash or not, and maybe be unstable. be sure to check it out, front back inside outside, everything! me be a crack in the shell! you never know! rick

Ah were it so easy to see a brand and model. They are "Honda Line", have a DOT sticker, etc in them. Fiberglass shell. They have the factory paint and stickers to match my 85 Limited.

Last thing I want to do is launch a debate on used helmets, I get it! Really looking to use these on Parade rides once I am at the parade but not for everyday cruisin'

Besides not knowing if it's been in a accident or other, who knows what head it has been on. I say no more.

You could go to bellhelmets dot com, click on the link on the left "Helmet Parts / Refurbish / Repair"

Hopefully one of their replacement liners will fit.

Yep, I would go with a new helmet. Gmax helmets are pretty good for the money. I have an open face Gmax that I paid under $50 for and I have got to say it is well made and very comfortable. Buying used helmets I have to say are a bit like buying used underwear. Yuk!

Hi TC, I am a GL1200LTD owner and purchased a Goldwing LTD Helmet from a guy on EBay. Paid $60 US for it. The foam had also turned to dust and the visor is scratched badly. In otherwords it is crap. This helmet, if it is a LTD model (Gold with LTD emblem), is a Shoei and was an expensive helmet. I just put it on display close yto my bike. This does help you too much. Shoei just said buy a new helmet so I bought an Arai Please let me know if there is a fix.

That's odd, Shoei sells replacement liners for their helmets too. try here;

Thanks Roach, I am not sure if Shoei make inserts for these old helmets. I need to do some research I guess.

yeah, matching your old helmet to a current model will probably be difficult. Good luck.

Thanks for all of the help! I will try to match up one of the new inserts to go into the old helmets. The TZ-R looks like a possible match to the full helmet, and the J-Wing for the 3/4. Should be good enough for parade use!
