    I am far to ugly for such a pretty Helmet, imagine the shock for people when I took it off! Much more suited for Tanya (creep, creep)
    Tanya are you buying one in the near future? If you are I'd be interested to hear what you think! I shall be waiting for pay day (2 weeks) away and then may well get one, in which case I shall report back to you. Trouble is, when you buy a new lid it's a long term investment, at least 3 years (hopefully). I bought an AGV a long time ago because it looked good and ony wore it about 3 times before I realised it didn't fit properly then never wore it again. Admittedly inexperience and vanity were to blame as I wouldn't make that mistake again, as Scorchio says function over form first, but looks definately still come into it for me.

    I agree with all that :) Yeah, the thing about the one I want is that you can adjust the air pockets to create perfect fit. I tried one on this weekend because I saw a ladies motorcycle shop in Paris and they had it and looked good and felt great. Even though I dont need a new lid, I am seriously tempted to buy it

    I own 1 Shoei & about 4 AGV - i Find The AGV fits me so Much better, i am a big fan of Arai but think now some are far overpriced at £600-£700 for a race rep ! but again just keep tring them all on - as Dawn had a Great Shark helmet taht She like and Ftted very good

    I have 2 Sharks (S800 & Vision R)...I find them a much nicer fit overall.
    S800 - I find quieter than the Vision R, but the Vision R has in built Sun Visor also with a very slim Bluetooth system.
    S800 i think is about £130, and the Vision R is about £230 (Bluetooth not included).
