Lid got dropped this morning and has put a sizeable dint in it and cracked the outer casing.
I have £200
Am I stuck with the Caberg V2X Carbon (which I currently have)
Needs to be carbon fibre (weight on neck means I need light lid)
Needs to have one solid colour, I don't want millions of stickers all over it, or patterns.
Needs internal sun visor.


Struggling, I can't find a Marushin RS which isn't either XS/XL, but they lack internal visors

Is an internal sunny a definite? I cannot fault my Nitro N1900VF Carbon... it looks sexy enough for me and I'll just grab a £20 visor.

the problem for me is that I am not inclined to carry two visors with me, because I have a tendency of destroying things without even knowing how or when I have done it

Oh I don't carry 2 visors Laughing If weather says its going to be good all day, maybe a few clouds, I'll don the black one. If its murky and expected to rain, clear one.

Few times with low sun you might get caught out, but aside from that the helmet is great. So much lighter than the other lids in my arsenal Laughing I paid £99 for it... rather than £199 as ghostbikes had a deal, so I would hunt around, you might even find their higher versions for £200, unsure if they have integral bits...

I'm in need of a light replacement for my aging heavy Arai Condor

you're talking to the man who has never been down the road, but has scratches on my lower fairings which look like they have been down the road....I put them there, don't know when don't know how.

If I have something like that I will put it on the shelf and somehow it will get destroyed
