Well time for a new helmet and i saw this bad boy. looks the bizzo but dunno about how strong it might be.
However i like the idea of being able to have a summer version
And the built in sunnies aint so bad either.

Looks cool, I expect the built in sunny's would be retractable.

Try the Nolan n102 - has an extra "sunny" visor + flip-up front + bluetooth capable (+ $400)
Plus - V. comfortable / V. cool / has a winter "flap" to cut wind coming up from chin area
Minus - noisy without earplugs

Good luck if you get pulled over by the cops... Um why? :? :?

If it sells here i assume its going to be to Australian standards and its been sold as a full face rd helmet in the UK.
When i said strong i meant i was a bit iffy on the interchangeable front chin guard Thingy
Wind noise as 6maniac said is prolly more of a concern though.
Anything that lets the breeze in in a QLD summer though has got to be good as long as it still protects like a
normal full face :) :)
