Got no idea sorry....Procycles Hornsby. Pm details now. They have had a huge sale on for a few weeks now and it should still be on until end Dec but I don't know what their stock levels are like.

Saw an ad for a joint in Essendon, www.bikesplus.com.au I can only hope their physical store is better than their website, if the store was mine I wouldn't even be advertising a website that is a) seriously amateurish and b) not even close to completion yet, but then that's just me maybe.

Does anyone know of any bike stores anywhere in Aus having sales on XR1000's ?

I just got an email from Bikebiz, there's are on "sale" for $899.95, but then i just went to their online shop and they start at about $499. Maybe worth a try???

Cheapest design at The Helmet Warehouse is $550.

I tried helmet warehouse they only have the bling model in a few colours. I want to get a plain gloss black but everywhere says they are sold out!

Guys, the TZ-R and XR-1000 have exactly the same shell and padding , its only the venting that differs, even take same visors...they should fit exactly the same..

Yep, that's what I found when I was trying to decide between them. I went with the XR because of the superior ventilation. With the mid-30 days we've been having lately, I'm farkin' glad I did, too!

I bought a XR1000 recently so I'm keen to try that out without a fall of course...

MCAS in Liverpool are having a clearance sale on *OLDER* stock Shoei, Arai etc helmets, I think they had some Arai RX7s for $800-900, and Shoeis $100-200 below retail but the cheaper ones are the old stock.

Regarding fogging, I've used the Progrip antifog inserts without any problems, they work good - $30. It provides a light tint good enough for day and night use. But they don't seem to go darker with more light and need replacing every 12-18 months.

Or spend half that and buy the RJays brand at $15.....I've had both brands and they are identical in performance.
