Welcome to the forum Phil I think it's very important if you wear glasses to try the helmet on. Arai for me were very good had 3, the worst for me was a very expensive Foggy rep Shark, it always bent my right ear over, cost me a fortune had to go out and buy another Arai. I now have a Shuberth C3 very expensive but great quality, I wanted this because i wanted to try a built in dark visor and flip up. i have to wear ear plugs though because despite their claims its the quietest flip front its still noisier than a full face IMHO. -
the daft thing is my wife and both daughters cars are £30 each so £90 for 3 cars and £74for 1 hobby bike -

whats your favourite make of bike?
Grumpyowl replied to Chadatious's topic in The Pub "Tinker and Budget"
it depends what you have at the time i suppose. i had 2 yams back to back and the Thunderace for me( had it over 7 years from new ) was the best bike iv'e had untill i got my Hayabusa. so ive now had 2 suzukis back to back and the busa is definatly the best bike ive ever had. but thats because it's to me at least, just like a big modern thunderace. so my vote at the moment is suzuki. and my worst would de triumph hated my 955i daytona centenial -

Have you seen this one Dave ? http://motoaus.com/road/road-bike-features-and-reviews/suzuki-b-king-ridden-and-raced-review.html Dave and Bec live near me (Gold Coast) and run at the same dragstrip, Willowbank. I think its a pretty accurate review from someone who doesnt own one / isnt paid by Suzuki.love it Tony so stick that in your pipe and smoke it , you none believers , the king rules personally i prefer macdoalds to king
