Hi

Iv found a KBC helmet i like the look of. https://www.cissburyleathers.com/Large/528chrome.jpg

what do you people think??

Anyway, has anybody had a KBC lid? I just want to know whether they are decent all round helmets, ie, bits dont fall off or break easily etc.

cheers

I've had the same lid but in Matt black for the last 6-7 months, it is a very good lid very good for £150. Not had any problems with it at all and the finish on the matt black lid is superb Very Happy

lol can find a pic of it at the mo yet.

One little thing with the helmet is that it can be a little noisy on the motorway, so ear plugs are a must.

Nothing can be noisier than my AGV!

shame they don't have the "urban warrior" version discounted as the matt camo looks the dogs in my opinion. At least it's a bargain. www.harpersraceshop.co.uk is the link for Type_Mo's suggestion. Mind you, they were flogging them off for 70 quid at the Ally Pally show and i would have definately got the VR7.

I have KBC motocross lid that I use on the road so it's a bit loud. I havn't had any problems with it at all, build quality and finish are very good and I can even take the pads out of mine for cleaning Very Happy

I have two KBC helmets, I find them very good value for money. One of them is the TK-X torque (motocross style) and that has saved me from head injury once before. Also fits very well. The other one is a sports lid, KBC Tk-8. Again, very good. Fits perfect, keeps your head warm and snug, also rather quiet.

Good helmets for those on a budget of around £100. Thumbs Up
