Talk about closing the gate after the horse has bolted! LOL

Glad your ok though.

What does the rest of the helmet look like, it looks like you have just landed on the visor not the actual helmet?

Yeah I could have taken a better photo tbh. The lid is cracked on the right hand side, under the visor in the pic.

I wanted a new lid but I'd rather not have been forced into a purchase!!

£50 will see it on the road again... minus the lid!
Left hander? Yeah highside then but obviously one where you've come down with a smack, if you're still a little hazy about it Stenno I'd be taking a trip to a&e. Our heads can appear foolishly tough and you've no telling what's gone on inside if you've hit it hard enough to re-set it.

Consider yourself lucky my man,just been told Andy a lad that's joined in a few trackdays with our group did a Stenno at the weekend. At Rockingham in exactly the same conditions you described

He's now the owner of a very 2nd hand looking ZX9 & he's in hospital with a spiral fracture of the tibia,shattered collarbone & 3 broken ribs

Think I'll give Rockingham a wide berth for a while!
