didnt mind the shark as it was my first lid, the arai is the best no 2 ways about it, cant find a comfy shoei and the agv ti tech fits nice in the showroom but not so nice when riding, really big chin bar which really gets caught by the wind,its not a noisy lid but my ears just have a constant ringing in them,i rode to brands with it on lats year for wsb and it took 15 mins for my heraing to be back to normal yet when i rode the arai to donnie they were fine

not a great advert for the lid really but is each to their own by the look of it

Hey Festa, where you get the helmet sprayed for that price?

I've got myself a roof. very easy to change the visor, have not noticed it being that noisy but to some extent this may depend on your ear plugs.

down side to it is the front airvent. does not close air tight so in the winter a very nasty stream of cold air comes through even when shut (not so bad in the summer!). I block it will a tissue but that's not the point.

Am now on my third Arai, always had them. Like the fit, the venting and build. Actually never paid anywhere near full price. If you hunt around and don't mind last year's paint job then you can uaually pick them up at a good discount.

For example:
Arai Astro J Parkes Rep - 11400 A stunning Race Replica Helmet SALE PRICE RRP £399.99 Price: £230.00
