Shark S900C, any good?

[Tomzo47]

After finally deciding my helmet is shit after trying on a few new ones today (and realising I can take it off without undoing it ) I've been eyeing up the Shark S900C, found a place that will do it for £200 with a free black visor, anyone had any experience with them?
Cheers

I bought an s900 for £120 about 6 months ago. Not sure if the C version has anything improvements. It has the inside drop-down visior which they are trying to sell you.

Helmet is light but it's the only helmet I have ever had. No complaints though. Good washability.

cheers, I was originally after a S900 as they were alot cheaper, but want a black visor for it and it works out about £20 difference between the standard and the C, so not sure which to go for

yeah I love the look of tinted visors which is what I was after (for daytime use only, keep the clear with me for night riding, same as i do now) but can't really tell the difference between the 900 and the 900C, will have to go into a shop and see what they say, didn't really have chance earlier

Does it fit you properly?

I found it here for £179.. but it doesn't come with a black visor.

Does come with a cleaning kit and bag though, and the kit is pretty decent.

I bet if you rang them up and see if they had any black visors they would do you a good deal!

If you haven't done already, go try them on. The shape of the helmet do not fit my head. The small one is too big and the Extra-small is too tight. Shark have some great looking helmets too, but they seem to be sized the same, so all out for me

Yeah, I've been past numerous 5-0 with mine black.. even talked to one before with it on.

And filled up with petrol right next to one yesterday.

I wear glasses so for me a visor is a must in the sun really.. I'll take the risk for being able to see..

lol, you should be fine

ive had a black visor on my current lid for the last 6 months and been fine with it going past police, and think the inner sun visors look a bit shit so will try and get one thrown in

As said, I've not had any bother with a black visor, but I keep the clear one in the bag anyway, not fun riding at night with the black one!
