Had this helmet for 2 months now and I am very impressed with it,
you can pick them up for just under £100 too .
I paid 150 from HG but they are now £99.99 !!!!(Bargain)
I am gutted its gone down but I am not disappointed that I paid 150 as I feel its well worth the money.

Its a really good fit, (on me anyway)
Its Got a nice shape,
comes with 2 visors 1 clear and 1 legal tint.
Good ventilation,
With the clear one in winter it didn't even steam up.
Its not too loud I don't ware ear plugs and it wind noise doesn't bother me as it did wither previous helmets.

I know its not the best review but just thought I would share my thoughts.

I have this helmet as well, a couple of issues I have

1. The visors that came with it don't fit snugly to the rubber seal, with about 5mm gap along the bottom on one side covering almost half the width of the visor. Result of this is wind and sometimes dust on my face/eyes. This is worst on the motorway

2. Wind noise on motorway is terrible and any distance at motorway speeds means you need some kind of ear protection.

Now this is my first helmet and I'm only comparing to my friends Arai which doesn't have a gap around the visor or bad wind noise on motorways - perhaps you can tell me if you have the same problems?

Cheers
Simon ;)

I really rated mine, it was definitely quieter than my Shoei but had a similar problem in that the visor didn't really seal too well and you could get water coming in the top!

If anyone needs any spares for theirs, let me know, I have the clear and tinted visors, plus if you needed any of the plastic mounts etc I have those. I don't use the lid as I had an off in it and although I don't think it hit the deck/car, I didn't want to take the chance re-using it.

My seal seems to be ok, its only a month old though maybe they sorted it out as you 2 have had the same issue.
