Korben Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Ignore out un-patriotic friends... Shark make decent helmets I believe, although never had one to look at properly.Helmet City seem pretty good. Website certainly seems professional enough.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennie Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I had 2 shark helmets, a RS2 then a RS2air.good helmets, i liked them, light, quiet.The triangle shaped plastic bit on the front vent of the air kept falling off though!I've got an RST helmet now, seems pretty good so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleedubber Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 I'm having a nightmare reallyNot got a huge budget at the moment, so want something decentThere is a lot more choice since last time I bought one and new manufacturers etcHard to know what is goodHad a read of the advice section on buying a lid, which helps , but still confuddled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennie Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I got my RST, fairly recently, from HG, it was just over £100 i think.you really need to try different ones on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, tried quite a few on today and there was quite a difference in fitThe Shark was good, just a bit miffed the one I liked best is last years model and cant seem to find one anywhere on the tinterweb Think I'll pop to the other big bike shop in town and see what they have in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr Miller Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I like the look of the RST helmets - they'd go perfectly with my RST jacket & trousers......but I couldn't fit in the ones I've tried! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
