Hey guys,
I'm looking for an upgrade in the helmet department. After reading a lot of reviews and the ins and outs of the mid-range sport type helmets I've pretty much decided on the tried and true Shoei RF-1100. This just seems to be a great all round helmet and has countless reviews etc all over the world to back that up. Also being 3+ years old I can pick one up for around $500 (for the solid black) which is a pretty attractive price.
That being said, in the US and EU the Shoei RF-1200 (or NXR in the EU) which replaces the RF-1100 has been released. This is pretty much an improvement in every way on an already brilliant helmet.
My question is, has anyone got word of if/when NZ retailers may be stocking these? If so, any indication of price?
I figure it'd cost about NZD$800 to import from the states (that's $530 for helmet, $75 shipping with youshop, $90 for gst and ~$100 for any customs duty/extra charges but would obviously prefer to buy from a NZ shop.
