Just for info.
There's a company, helmetcity.co.uk, that are selling what seem really resonably priced Shoeis. I don't know what their customer service is like (i'm about to find out) but I picked up an XR1000 for less than £200 which seemed pretty good. If it doesn't come with a giant dent in it i'll consider it a good deal.
Thought i'd post in case anyone else was helmet shopping.
