Just got the first three into the shop yesterday, really cool helmet, all three sold within hours. Had the chance to ride home in one too. The muzzle is really comfortable, allows good airflow, looks cool, comfy shell.

RRP is $369.90 here in NZ, dot and AS/NZ approved.

Come drop into Motomail and we can sort you out if you want to have a look at one/order one in. They are selling damn fast. They should be in OZ now too! Supposedly hundred have been pre-sold to customers over the ditch!

DO u normally sell these sorts of products at RRP? Or is that just a guideline from manufacturer...? Just curious...

Well I know that since BELL became an italian make, they have gone down in quality, but this plumbs new depths.... :sick:

FFS(FOR FUCKs SAKE). Yes I know what an acronym is but it needed spelling out; why the hell would you sacrifice safety for fashion to that extent? The ground is pretty unyielding, you don't want to throw your chin into it. The M1 has a far better protection strategy if you want a Bell.

A guideline given by the importer according to region, wholesale cost, margin, keeping the market fair etc etc.

I think the first post sums up why...

First reaction was WTF? Having nothing pressing I watched the video. Not for me thanks, but it might be a better alternative than some of what I see around.
Price is nice.

I've had mine for months now. Imported it in from the States pretty much as soon as they came out. Cost me $300NZ all up and its my current "go to" helmet these days. Went with a couple of half helmets before but got sick of my sunnies fogging up when wearing anything over my mouth (mask/scarf) to deflect the air up.

Totally happy with it. The muzzle is a bit snug but I got used to it. No fogging and heaps better protection for the lower back of the head. I love the look but am not fooling myself that it gives any protection for the front of my face.

For longer rides I'l go with my Shoei full face but for a an hour so ride, its just fine. On the open road, I'll normally put some earplugs in...that's not a defect in the helmet...its just because my bike is f#ckin loud.

I like the looks of that Shark Raw if that's the 'look' you are after. Reminds me of those corny robot/aliens that wobble after Dr Who.

Yeah it could be that. Or it could be that a helmet should actually do the best job it can.

as costume wear​ for a sci-FI party I can see the point.
