Any experience with OGK or M2R top end lids?

OGK were priced at the top end of the market in the UK mate.
A lot of the club racers were wearing them on the last season before I moved over cause we were offered a good discount from the importer if you showed your race licence

Doesn't the spur have too many corners though Neka?????

Be a good way to run the new lid in though

Not sure how much the visors are yet as they didn't have a tinted one in stock. Coming in this week, so will let you know how much when I get one mate.

OK...I've done enough kilometres in it now to give a large time period on your head report!

Most new lids hurt somewhere on a long day at some time. This one didn't at all, so that was encouraging. Noice levels are fine compared to my Old Arai, although it is more effected by strong (read blow your bike over) crosswinds, possibly due to the Astro-boy rear deck lid spoiler!

Which works a treat at anything over 2.2 Mega Gazelles by almost eliminating helmet lift. Top marks OGK!

The visor even without any anti fog protection fitted,remained clear as long as I kept the chin vent open and in the breeze. At slow speeds it fogs like most do.

It sealed well all trip. not allowing water to drip in anywhere while it was pissing down.

Nothing rubbed, irritated or became annoying over the number of K's we did...( Probably around 1100k's for me).

No straps or flaps or clips get in the way or flap about once secured with the appropriate fasteners.

All in all pretty happy thus far!

i went to the shop in Brighton to check out the OGK lids and riding boots and the lids were at $250 but only limited sizing ava, so i didnt' get them as they had size M in RED

, so much for looking like a set of traffic lights with a red lid riding a greed bike

the boots there were shit, put them on first time and the zips just missed and spreaded open, had them returned and refunded........

never gona get entry level shit again....................
