Calling all riders with flip-face helmets

[Forest]

I have a BMW flip helmet (can't remember what series it is).

Definitely one of the better lids I've owned. But the replacement visors are a complete and utter rip-off ... over $120 for a piece of clear plastic???

Yep, sounds like more riding and getting the lid on the ol'noggin will solve that problem! Any excuse to get the bike out "I have to build up the muscles in my neck and...body...by...riding...riding lots! Yes, I wore an ipod playing tunes but found it intefered with hearing my bike purr away. Just wondering, do you know where to score more visor replacements in case of scratchies?

Well that's what I tells the Missus, anyways....

Can't remember where I got it, now, I think from Cyclespot in Barry's Point Rd. Takapuna, they had a special deal going on a full outfit, (have now too, according to the latest KR mag). So they may know. Mine is still in pretty god nick, though the beading around the visor has come loose.

Ive got a nolan N101 a little noisey but i like to hear what the bike is doing has good ventilation if you want more air flip up the clear visor .I dont ride with the lid up as thats dangerous if you come off.I like the sun visor ($45.00 for a new one) doesny effect the aerodynamics when up.I would buy another one,have tried the schubert but it is a tight fit didnt like it.my next flip up will be a nolan with the comms kit fitted.It could be a bit lighter but have got use to it.
