and i must say excellent service from lidsdirect, i actually ordered a black one as there were no white ones listed on their site.
i just happened to add a little text in the delivery comments box like "i have ordered a black but if you have a white i would really appreciate it"
they read this and located a white at another branch and duly sent that
excellent customer service very RARE nowadays .

But only *** for safety - particularly poor on side impact although - 97% Percentage of impacts where the faceguard remained fully locked

As i have noted previously well pleased with rating of my Bell M1 ***** for £165 and am happy with fit and performance
Linkydink2
and it is also 250gms lighter so presumably not so much strain on neck
before i checked this was always worried by the old question how much is your head worth - however it would seem that price and safety are not always related
TDM 1991 - two into one micron mated with a A16 Road and Race Supplies Stainless short can - Conti Road Attacks - Kagazume Wavy Rear Disc - Bagster tank cover - homemade sheepskin seat cover on top of custom seat cover - NonFango topbox on homemade mount - custom fusebox - very loud airhorn and cyclone alarm

It amazes me just how much stuff you can find out on the internet, thanks for the info. According to those tests I've made a good decision. The AGV S4 gets 5 stars, the HJC IS 16 which was going to be my 2nd choice only got the 2, and the HJC IS MAX got 3

And I don't see how my HJC IS Max scores 3 stars, a flip front lid which stays closed in only 40% of impacts, and my ARAI Chaser also scores 3 stars, a full face lid costing 3 times the price!!
