    Hello

    Hope I’m in the right forum.

    I have a completely unused, absolutely pristine Caberg Justissimo Titanium XL sized helmet, in original box, sleeve and with promotional visor sticker still attached. Booklets etc. Absolutely pristine, unused condition. This isn’t a Justissimo GT it’s a Justissimo plain and simple.

    I’m never going to use it. I bought it years ago at a show in the RDS but never started motorcycling! My question is how much is it worth and where’s the best place to advertise it?

    Thanks very much for any advice.

    How old is it?

    No need to answer that, I googled it... Helmets have a limited life, so a 15 year old helmet isn't of any value to protect someone... particularly as anyone who wants a cheap lid can pick one up new in Halfords for €30. There is a date on the chin strap of each helmet and they should be discarded after 5-7 years...

    Plus that one you have is unlikely to meet modern safety standards. You might find someone who wants it as a momento of a past experience, such as conceiving their favourite child on the back of a Gixer while wearing that particular protection... then it'd be worth at least €7-8.

    Sorry I don't have better news.

    It's worth whatever someone wants to pay, it should meet any modern safety standard (they're not very stringent tbh), they're affected by UV which will weaken the shell, hence the limited life though the vast majority wouldn't pay any attention to that, if it's been boxed all tis time then that might mitigate, I have one and wear it occasionally, it's stored properly etc and still serviceable, they're noisy as F though.
