Replacement visors
 
Wheres the cheapest online these days? Race visors? Or does anyone know of another place?

£40 for a replacement clear visor for an Arai, eeeeekkk. You can get a new lid for not much more than that these days.

Anyone know of anyone cheaper, or will I have to stop being a tight ****?

as Fizz.

£40 seems to be going rate for a visor but knowing Arai a tinted one will be about £70

For example of odd prices:
My £140 xlite has £40 visor and a pinlock is another £22. I would have bought another lid if I wasn't skint and the only other lids that fit me are AGV's

Bought my last visor from racevisors.co.uk, first time I've ever bought an aftermarket - fit is crap, quality was poor with much worse refraction of light at night, and they said they'd only refund if they found it to be faulty
- which means I'm stuck with it, as faulty would be subjective.

Will not shop there again, and doubt I'll ever buy an after market visor ever again.

Same. Bought an aftermarket dark visor from visorshop for an Arai. Had to Dremmel it to fit. Placcy to thick.

Would not hesitate to use Visorshop again as I have always had good service from them ...*cough* replacement Arai side pods;)

I use Race Visors-

But I've been getting genuine parts, so have been fine with what's been delivered.

I used racevisors again.

I've used them before, no hassle with service, so just had to bite the bullet and fork out.

RE above, you can't blame the company if an AFTERmarket visor doesn't fit well :lol:

I got a cheapo aftermarket dark visor for my Arai and it fits fine but the visor is too dark all I can see is my own reflection which while very pretty isn't very safe.

Saved £20 but it's a false economy as I am now going to have to buy a £45 genuine one as well.

I have always used racevisor, pretty much next day delivery too.

I've bought a non genuine XR1000 tinted visor from them which was pretty good quality.

I've also bought a genuine XR1100 visor from them to and that was absolutely perfect.
