[SneakyMcC]

I'm about 300yrs overdue a new lid. I have tried quite a lot on today, prolly most makes bar Shoei. Dunno why HG never had them?

The Arai Viper/Signet models felt the best (the latter is now discontinued).

Anyway, anyone got some advice? discounts etc?

There's also a few shops on fleabay selling lids at reasonable prices.

As for advice, get the one that fits the best.

Hein Gericke used to sell Shoei a couple of years ago.Dont know why they stopped selling them.
Anyroadup,I prefer my Shoei XR1000 to my Arai Corsair.The fit is better,....its quieter,...the vents work well and its got a great visor release system.
Bought mine for £240 with a black visor at the BMF Show.

Agreed, I was in the HG shop in Ilford (Essex). Very well looked after!
