Please have the common courtesy to bring a do-rag or something similar. I
don't want to get lice trying on a helmet.

What would I do with a do-rag? I don't have any hair. It all fell out about 20 years ago. As far as that goes, I don't have lice either.

Doesn't matter. Your head can still be dirty/sweaty. Its not just a hygene thing but a courtesy thing.


The manufacturer's suggested retail was already known. My question was if they'll come off it and what's reasonable?

In my experience, they will come down but it will depend on a few factors: bike popularity & demand, existing inventory, age of inventory. A popular bike will command top dollar; not much wiggle room. A bike that's been around for a long time they'll be more inclined to negotiate as its costing them money to keep it. That's how I got my SV.

BTW, love the signature.
