Mirrored lid
 
I thought I saw an advert in a mag a few months back showing a completely mirrored lid - no markings on it at all. I've just had a look and can't find it tho - does anyone know if anyone does do a completely mirrored lid?

thanks

Only problem I can see is that they are damned inconsiderate.

Imagine following someone with the sun behind you both, but being reflected off the back of their lid, right into your eyes.

Cool, thanks for the info guys.
That Craft lid is ugly - looks like something from Halo! :-)

SK: I can't imagine they would be allowed to sell it if there was risk of blinding people. Think of chrome trim on most cars - that would do the same, and that's not really a big issue.

Chrome trim is not usually a big ball-shaped lump at eye-level though...

The black or white ones are much nicer. I have a black one with black visor under the bed. Belongs to my ex. He loves them and has had a couple over the years. They go great with the VRaptor, makes the rider look like a right hard t**t:smt077

BTW Craft helmets have been going for years in this design. He had a white one before the black, and that was when I met him some 8 years ago.
