I call repost.

Noone was interested in mine though :oops: :oops:

viewtopic.php?f=25&t=20533

It doesn't say a real lot for some of the more expensive lids.
It's really all about standing around drinking Dave's beer.

Geez that's interesting...... :lol: :lol:

Safety of course is paramount, but Central Station was ringing in my ears every time I wore my HJC. I could wear my Shoei all day.
