Was in ASDA today and saw some bloke with a HJC helmet, was black silver and chrome, looked so good Cool

I'm pretty sure it was this one:

Anyone got one? On ebay for £110 new (from shop) dark visors are only £25, seem to be rated quite well?

It's only for stunt riding so mostly <50mph speeds.

If anyone has one could you take some decent quality pics please? The one I saw today looked sooo nice, but the pictures don't seem to do it justice, doesn't show up the chrome too well, so any chance of some decent pics? Cool

I have one, Its blue chrome rather than silver chrome.

Its rated joint first by RiDE magazine with the shoei XR1000 and Raid 2.

I would take pics of mine but its bashed about and covered in flies.

Thumbs Up

If you can go too hein gericke and try on a HJC AC/11 dragon (same helmet but £180 and got dragons on it not the zeek pattern)

I really rate mine.

I have a AC-11 Yikes, in matt blue/silver.

I've alsways had HJC, since they just seem to fit, and at that price, I can afford to replace them more often.

I picked up my AC-11 at the BMF for £90. Forest Edge Products was selling them for £50, but not in my size (XS)

It's a top helmet.. Highly recommended.

Ive had one, its no arai and it done its job as it was intended to do, but its noisy and has a certain cheap feel to it.

Hein Gericke in manchester did have the AC-11 Shiva about 3/4 weeks ago on offer for £89 - ace helmet , little noisy but light enough and really comfy with good vents - i bought one Smile

not too sure if they still go them in but probably worth a phone call if your still looking for one

I tried on some HJC's today, very very nice fit for me, I tried on an AGV and it didn't fit well, Xlites were horrible, the HJC really did fit well and felt comfy, I tried the HJC FG-14 Phoenix too but that one wasn't quite as comfy I didn't think.. think I tried on a CL-12 one which looks almost the same as the AC-11.

Saw the Zeek chrome in red, looks fuckin lovely! was gonna buy one there and then but they haven't got any in stock, no other stores seem to have them and they aren't coming back in stock Evil or Very Mad

I felt a bit guilty walking out empty handed after spending 30 mins trying stuff on .. the bloke in gericke was really helpful but I pretty much settled on the zeek.. he was saying about getting the FG-14 but I just don't like it as much Confused

Anyone know where I can get a red Ac-11 Zeek in size Small?

Cos I sure as fuck can't find one Evil or Very Mad

Look on ebay etc and look at what patterns the AC/11 are available in.

Mines the red dragon. Definitely prefer it to my last AC11 which was the red zeek one. You won't find the zeek colours any more as it's the dragon at the mo.

sparks what hg did you go to? pompy or soton? The smalls sold out about a month ago and cant get any more because there last years model which is why there so cheap. The fg14 are the same as the new ac11's but they havent got the side vents on. you could try a shark they seem to fit people that dont fit agv's.
