: Um...you paid $400 for an RF-800 and an extra visor?  I paid under $300
: for an X-9 with the clear and a tint visor - NEW.  Something tells me
: your "almost new" RF-800, while it is a nice helmet, it is not worth
: over $180, if that on a used market.

I bought an rf-800 at Fay Myers Honda recently.  They wanted $375 for
it, so Kevin's ~$400 seems to be the going rate for these helmets in
Colorado.  They are, however, VERY flexible with the prices and are
definitely willing to negotiate, even with small accessories.  They sold
the helmet to me for $250 since I've spent $1500 in accessories (race
pipe, jet kit, etc..) in the last few weeks.  Never pay list price or what
they are asking for.
