think im gonna buy this For the Shark Vision R Series 2 motorcycle helmet Shark R & D engineers have created a helmet that offers the panoramic aperture of an open-face helmet, with the widest angle currently on the market. Combined with the safety of the latest generation of full-face fibre shell. This features a composite fibre construction, 2 shell sizes, anti-fog visor system, improved soundproofing, easy fit glasses system, Sharktooth ready, quick release retention system, removable interior and a weight of 1450g (+/-50g) was going to buy full face to begin with but i thought i couldn't see very well with one, think his helmet will change that

Shark helmets are worn by plenty of top class racers..safety wise you wont have no probs...def try before you buy if possible as diff makes do seem too fit a little different from each other...i seem too have a Shoei shaped head lol..they fit me great where the same sized agv i tried didnt feel quite right

Got my shark vision helmet it today, very happy with the view, tried my open face on and put my chin on my shoulder taking note of what i could see behind me, my backdoor in the kitchen was directly behind me so i could see that fine, put my shark vision on and put my chin on shoulder again, the view was pretty much identical, not sure about looking at speedos ect as i never thought to try it, so were can i pick up a cheap blue tooth kit for it ? Lol

ive a few old lids kicking around ,a 70's agv thats so open ya dont lose any peripheral vision at all ,but i havent a agv shaped head so it gives me headaches . am tempted by these new helmets that are more open ,didnt like the health n safety crap in mid 90's that made helmet openings shrink til ya lost vision .mirrors lie ,a look over ya shoulders safer ,unless all you can see is edge of ya helmet .H
