Phillip, there is nothing inherently wrong with HJC, other than it being M rated. If the helmet was truly not dropped or damaged, and was in fact an HJC, then you got an excellent deal on a marginal (in my opinion) helmet. Some Simpsons are made in the US (hat sized). We get enough questionable products from China, that I would not trust a helmet from there. Another note about M vs SA ratings, some manufacturers make both M and SA versions of a particular model helmet. In that case, the fire retardant lining is often the only difference, however there is more than that to the difference between M vs SA
