Which one fits your head? Opinions are no use for what you need.

System 6 is a super value compared with C3

Ive had a few flip lids at the cheaper end of the scale:

Nolan - no sun visor on my old 'n' but I think they have them now.Took a while to bed in.

Caberg - Good flip down visor but heavy, noisey and lets in rain between top of visor and lid and mists up easily.

Shark openline - light, flip down visor, visor does not steam up, open mechinism stiff when new, but soon 'wears in' so far so good and good price (£150 online). Shark also do a version which converts easily into an open face which my be useful as the temperature rises.

However, whatever you choose, fit is proberbly more important than anything else.

Arun,
why not try each helmet on your head
and see which one feels happy with your
head ??? and try not to look in the mirror
too much as you may miss where you are
going...

For what it's worth, I suggest you get to Hein Gericke, PDQ

1, They will help you get the right helmet for your head and when so, you will be left to wander round the store for some 15 min, to make sure there are no pressure points / pinching.

2, If you get online and register, you can download a voucher and with the expensive items, possibly get 20% off, but this ends on the 10th, I think?


Best of luck

Mark
