No carbon fibre sexiness, but my Shark Vision R arrived today. Quality seems good although I haven't tried it on the road yet. It might be my ears but I find I have to be careful how I put it on to avoid it folding my ears over but I'm sure this will improve as the padding beds in. Good service from helmet city, got a free pair of Kevlar jeans too which will be ok for pottering round town.


eta: doh picture was the right way up when I took it.

This seems to have got nothing but attention. People pointing out their car at it. People taking photos. Children running up to it going memo nemo. Even their mums going that's wicked.

Ive lost track of the amount of people who have asked me where I got it.
Its a great a lid wink

Oops, out for a coffee with a mate today, popped into Helmet City, ended up with this....







Mrs not too happy, as my current lid is less than a year old, but my argument was that it would be rude not to celebrate the first British World Champion since the 70's....

This is on my shortlist for a new helmet, or the axces II. How are you finding the chaser? I wan't something bright for my new lid, and I love this colour scheme. I love my current AGV but after trying on a few Arai's today I think I'm going to make the switch.

This is my current AGV GP Pro, still in decent condition, never been dropped etc. but having tried on newer, lighter lids with smaller shells I feel I need to upgrade.

Ooo, don't want to be a glory hunter but it is a cool helmet. Weight? Wind noise?

That was from my spill at Aragon in September. I'd only worn it for 5 days

Currently in the market for its replacement but nothings taking my fancy at the moment. It may be replaced with the same

I've ordered this:



I always said I would always buy AGV but I went and tried on a few shoei's and Arai's a few weeks ago and they just felt so much nicer. I also don't like the chin bar on any of the current AGV's. It was a tough choice between a Shoei NXR, chaser schwantz or this.
