Check your local Triumph dealer. They usually carry 1/2 and 3/4 helmets also.

I've bought several different styles of helmets from helmetcity.com since 2004. Their prices are competitive and I've never had a problem buying from them.

I'm using a Shoei St Cruz 1/2 helmet w/removeable leather ear protection and a Bell Apex full face helmet...I like both of 'em.
