Don't Panic People!!

Suomy USA, the company I used to work for, no longer represents the brand in the US. I now work directly for the factory, Suomy Spa. We still have three distributors, Parts Unltd, Van Leeuwen and Romaha. They have all the latest 2009 models in stock. My job is to support the distributors, dealers and provide customer service for Suomy owners.

The race suopport program, as it has existed for the last few years, will be put on hold temporarily. Once we have regrouped we will get it up and running again. Suomy isn't going away guys, if anyone needs ANYTHING, whether it be parts, warranty, tech support etc feel free to contact me.

For what it's worth; I just got off the phone with Don in search of some different size cheek pads for the spec-1r. He was super helpful in providing measurements and a local dealer where I could order the parts.

I was concerned until I read the link with Don's post.  I had just picked up a Capirossi replica Spec 1R a couple of months ago and I love the helmet.
