New helmet on B/Hol Monday? Arai tour-X3 or Shoei DS.

[Timpo]

Ahhh feck it, my Tour-x is falling to pieces, but to be fare it's done a few miles now.....
And low 'n' behold, I've found a few bob in my pocket......
So, the question is, where could I walk in to and buy a helmet on Bank Holiday Monday? Yep, with cash, no delivery required.......
The two models I fancy are Arai tour-X3 in white, or the Shoei Hornet DS Sonora TC-6 (white/black), and it would be a bonus to try both on, especially having never tried a Shoei for size/fit.

Obviously the closer to Chester the better for me........

Better air flow for warm weather , the peak is smaller and more rigid , the interior is way more cumfy and it has the pinlock system which is amazing i tell thee ! It rained and snowed from Le tunnel to Italy and it never steamed up once , not once !!! Are you listening

But you'll need earplugs for prolonged motorway riding as it's a tad noisier

New lid.....

Have a look at the new X Lite X550......same price as Shoei, build tin sunvisor, 5 year warranty. Worth a consideration
