Was thinking of getting new helmet,and I saw this!


Think it will go well with my MS,got a dark tint visor aswell,although it has an internal dark visor!

£279 bargain!

Looks nice that

I hope it's as good as it looks lol
But I love the style and good colour match me thinks. Should add a few more bhp with those colours ;D

That looks great... always find internal sun visors bang down on my nose, but then again, I do have a very Very big nose!

Fast looking lid ;D

I like it

The visor closes down on the nose guard,so unless you have a trunk lol it won't hit it! ;D

Will do,but putting it on you cant hear much! Plus you get an extra wind guard,underneath the helmet. Test ride tommorow ;D

Lol,I did read that,so in theory it should be even better! ;D
I just can't stop looking at my helmet ha ha ha,can't wait too test out tommorow!

Tested today and can confirm,it's the nuts! Very happy,wind noise was alot less than my Arai. I'm guessing with ear plugs it would be outstanding! Perfect.

why is the race pro r. so expensive at £500.... and this one is only £279...?

Yeah I noticed that,considering they look the same! But there must be something else about them. But like I said mine performed really well,and it's got a nice weight to it. Still can't get over how thick the visor is! That must help no end with wind! Next ride out I'll try ear plugs.

Bought the helmet. Disappointed with the wind noise I have to use foam ear plugs. My X-Lite 701 is still quieter but doesn't hold up in rain. Shark helmets do pretty well in that category that's why I went with the Speed R. Anyone interested in the Sauer black/white/silver color? I'm willing to let it go for a good price. Let me know.

Race stylee helmets make noise , think ya need a schuberth or something like that really , which IMHO look a bit shite.
The RX7 and GP Tech I have are also shite in the noise department , i j ust dont think its in the primary scope when they build these sort of lids

You don't like Schuberth SR1?
But TBH, It's not a quiet as I thought but it's V good
