Sweet, will most likely get saving for one of those then, normally buy online to save money but for that kind of prices ill go around a few places trying on different styles locally and get the size I need then just order online ;)

Best of luck with it bro.... Me and my mate who was with me were both in love with it! had to take it down and try it on!! biggrin Shame there was no price sticker on it, would be interested to see the price difference! I'll be back out there on wednesday to collect my bars and I'll find out! It is definitely the cheapest bike shop in Ireland! Was talking to the owner and he said he'll match if not beat any prices I can get on ebay!! aww

Ive got my visor tilted right down as far as it goes and I've had speeds I shouldnt mention out of a mates bike when I rode it and I was fine. Didn't almost break my neck and the helmet never snapped back at all :)

"I now have this lid:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Airoh-S4-Matt-Black-Motorcycle-Dual-Sport-Crash-Helmet-/251168926987?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Helmets&var=&hash=item3a7ad5ad0b

Light weight, reasonably priced, and fits me perfect. My Shoei that i had before was a bit quieter, but also heavier.

I've not been on any A roads or motorways yet so can't really comment about neck probs... "

 

That is a lovely lid man!! Exact kinda style that I'm going for, and very reasonably priced! Dunno what it is about matt black tho, I just never liked it! Probs get gloss black to match my bike!! Cheers for the heads up on it! aww Hopefully they'll have that model in the local MX shops cuz I'd never buy a helmet online! Prefer to get it on my head and get the perfect fit!
