Met the misses at lunch @ Action and had her pick out some helmets...

Then she tried on the one I wanted and we got that one... :)

It is an last season model from what I can tell..

Model: Shark RSF2 Foggy $299 on sale.

http://www.motorcyclemart.com.au/db/sho ... me=picture <-- $499 here...

I figure it's a good price, anyone got anything to mention about these helemts?


Thanks

Dan

Only that the bloody things don't fit my head :roll:

My missus has one of the cheaper Shark helmets which isn't too bad, nice graphics, but after an hour or two it presses on her forhead a bit. I told her she just needs to wear it more, but hey, you can't tell 'em. :lol:

My heads to big... otherwise she would have got my Shoei RF900... Cause I need a new one... She is a M in Shark.. I am a L in Shoei and it was the only helmet I could get over my head.. And it's too big for me now.. way to much movement..

200+ down the straight and I could have bitteno on the front of my helmet..

That's a good price, Dan and even better that your gf is happy with it.

When I was a pillion, I got an AGV but found it too heavy after a while, which is why as a rider I got myself an Arai - love that helmet, but wish it was more user friendly for visor changes. :evil:

cool, If they fitted me i'd wouldn't mind getting one, but i have 2 screens for my shoei, so it's abit of a waste to get another brand... BUT I want a Nakano replica though.. but way to expensive..

My missus has a Shark and so does her sister and they both love them. Personally, I can't stand the bloody things! Obviously they have different shaped heads in France, coz they don't fit my noggin.

Jezas Dan you make it way too easy, let me see do i start by wading in about Head size or kick into the jewish jokes about helmets ?. Even set you missus up i mean is M in shark means shes a Bronze whaler or a Hammerhead ?, way to much movement we talking Heads again or Helmets as for biting things on Straights .... C'mon mate your Not trying hard enough. thank God i arrived before the "Neka n Mina Tag team love tussle" got here.

Nothing to read here Folks ... false alarm .... move along please.

Cheers Brett

You do realize this is because you've got a "soft head". Obviously it conforms to the shape allocated by said helmet or Beanie as the case may be.
