    Bell was $350 (less some vouchers I had), same as the Caberg shipped. So far I like it - much firmer fit than the Caberg but bearable, double D ring strap instead of a clip, locking mechanism is all metal (Caberg has metal arm/plastic catch), lack of pinlock hasn't been an issue as the visor hasn't fogged up yet even in the rain this week, so the anti-fog coating works (hasn't really been cold yet though.)

    Main things I don't like about the Bell are the smaller visor opening, less substantial chin bar and rougher interior lining material. And the fact that I had to shell out the extra money for it cos some a'hole stole the other one.
    Moe: Well, I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt. I mean not that fancy store bought dirt. That stuffs loaded with nutrients. I...I can't compete with that stuff.

    You look the part wearing a face cloth on your head Rodney...I have a helmet here not in use at the moment if your need something to see you through until your replacement is sought.

    Edit: I see you have it sorted already?..

    Thanks. I am currently looking to replace my current lids. I love them but they turn 5 in August. Shame they don't make the FG-15 anymore or an equivalent.
    That bell looks like an option as have the cabergs I have seen on the net but can't find anywhere to try a Caberg on. Will have a lol at the bells this. Weekend.
