Yes.

To be fair you'll get at least a few thousand miles before it turns to the same viscosity as piss.

I did, unfortunately never paid enough of attention
Would this be an accurate conclusion?

1) You bought something without doing any research.
2) You didn't like the quality of the product.
3) The supplier has refunded your money.
4) Despite being no worse off you continue to whine like a spoilt brat about something no one else gives a toss about.

The code works for Repsol motorcycle oil as well (at least, it does for Repsol Moto Sport 4T 10W40 Motorcycle Engine Oil 4L).

I've just bought 4 litres of Silkolene for the next oil change, so it's no use to me, but thanks anyway. smile

code should work for all engine oils but be sure to check ebay first as that tends to be cheaper

Only, if you'd had perspective of rider one or the other being scammed (fake Bell) purchase.
Considering shamble of a product- I do honestly regret, not finding more creative ways to expose problem on time...

Unfortunately, my experiment of buying a helmet online didn't work out. frown

For 52 quid, thought I'd buy the M3 as a spare (5* Sharp and D-rings thumbup).

Quality seems fine, but visor removal needs a hex key (exactly the same as the Bell I had 10+ years ago).

Unfortunately, although I've had two XXL Bell helmets in the past, and XXL Shoeis since, this "XXL" is nowhere near fitting.

Oh well...

Well, I thought id balance the playing field here, or whatever the saying is.

Got the Bell last week, rode to work with it on, no problems at all.

done a track day with it on, no problems at all, in fact superb, very light, even in the rain without a pinlock on and me breathing heavily (I have a cracking nose) I couldn't get it to steam up. I got on without a ACU sticker, although knockhill is rather relaxed.

Might be different in the winter but surpassed anything else I could have bought for £100. Even the wonder woman styling has grown on me.

many thanks you's for the link

Evening all. I bought a "Wonder Woman" job

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00JX9M9SK/ref=pe_38572... - except mine's small - tiny brain.

Overall very happy, it arrived early, it's light and it doesn't fog up. Annoyingly, it comes with 20% VAT on top. Has anyone actually received their VAT refund? I've been refused a refund and just get quoted their T&C - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/r.html?R=NH2HSNY31G5M&a...

despite pointing out the HMRC guidelines. £7 is neither here nor there, it's the principle dammit!
