show us your lids
we see threads on show us your wheels and show us your engines but we dont see any helmet threads
with the things about helmets needing to be car aproved (yea i know nobodys ever seen checks take place) and the fact i kart semi regular i thought today id treat myself
not an amazingly expensive helmet but shoudl do the job for me quite nicely
whos got what as i know some people have nice ones to run hans ect and others properly race

tear offs are great! but its a big no no for bikers on the road.
its mental, soo reflective! its unreal. i dont ride round much with my visor down as i have an internal visor which flips down from inside which is smoked and meets road legal requirements.
but this thing, like i said if the sun as much goes behind a cloud of i end up in even shadows i cant see fuck all! other downside is, you cant see oil / fuel spills on the floor!
but the contrast is makes are amazing! a real must for good, distinct vision! iridium ftw!

Arai RX-7 Corsair's. Get them for free and they're a decent helmet.
Got an Arai 'Aprilia racing' edition aswell from when I used to ride Aprilia's.
Couple of Caberg V2R's aswell which I use on the road, as they have the double visor..One that flips down inside to act as a tinted visor. Uber comfy.
