Many late matey, but to be fair I have seen nothing on here about them.

I applied to be a beta tester a few months ago but got blanked, would have loved one but there is no way on this earth I could even begin to think about spending that much money on a lid, regardless of bells and whistles.

The only mind blowing, out of this world function is the visor that goes dark with the flick of a button, everything else is existing tech that been cleverly brought together, bar the HUD I don't know if that new or old tbh.

Still want one though :)

Looks super cool, I'd love to see what that HU display is all about. Assuming, from Gizmo's comment, that these lids are v. expensive.

Probably stay with my Bell M5X for now.

Very cool lid!!
No doubt one day all lids will have heads up display but the technology is not quite there yet and current heads up models are all super expensive.


Does look a bit more advanced than some of the others I' ve seen in the past.
Now if they could onlymake it affordable.

Yes I'd like to have one!!!

Join the club. Ridiculous money for a lid, I think.

If you want a auto dark visor why not just buy a cheaper transions visor!

Apparently shoei are working on electo-chromic (or whatever they are called) visors.

You know if you crash the funky tech will just end up in your eye.

Laughed out loud, price is around £1300 - £1500 if I remember correctly, I could buy a couple of Curvies for that!
