Angry Fuggin Pissed!!!

So I spent an extra $100 to get the Simpson Helmet I always wanted. I was going to get the Pyrotect Full Face for $248, but figured it was probably built in China like the G-Force stuff is. Don't get me wrong, if it meets SA2005 requirements, I really shouldn't have a problem with where it is made. Anyways, I open the box and first thing I notice is a big MADE IN CHINA label inside my new $350 helmet.
Needless to say it is going back to Jegs A.S.A.P.
#1, the main reason it is going back is because it is a Large and it is swimming on my head. I need a Medium.
#2, the made in china thing kinda twists my nuts because Bill Simpson is supposed to be all "USA" and what not...bastard! :censored:

Anyways, I will order my Pyrotect in Medium and be done with it.
