Default Where can I find this helmet?!

Found this shoei helmet on google images over two years ago and have yet to ever find one for sale on any website or ebay. Anyone have any ideas of where I can look to find this helmet which has now became my great white buffalo?

I figured it was out of production. My guess is that ebay is my only hope but after two years of on again and off again searching and not finding a single one new or used, that maybe there was someplace else I could look that I didn't know about. Sounds like I'm $hit outta luck lol

if its just the colors you like, buy a plain color one and have a custom paint or decal shop make one for you, just bring in that pic and let em work their magic.

Any idea's what's the ballpark on a custom paint job would run? A brand new shoei just solid red would still run about $400+

If you like paying full price then yeah $400+. I bought mine new for $250 shipped because some site was having a sale.

I say buy a helmet and have it painted to match.
