Default New lid for me

About 2 weeks ago I highsided the NSR and cracked some ribs...as well as killing my brand new HJC. So I decided to order up somethin new.....so I figured I would gice OGK a try. Well, it showed up today and I'm quite impressed by it. The finish is very good, the interior is very plush and the lid is quite light (carbon composite shell). Changing the shield is by far one of the easiest I have ever experienced. The fit (on my head) is very good and ranks right up there with my Arai Corsair's and my Shoei X11 (I wear a large Arai and Shoei so I went with a large OGK).

Total price for the lid, dark smoke shield and a pack of tear-off's was $291.80 (fucking DHL was $30.85 for shipping ).

Think about getting one. But will probably buy another RF1000.
Is it alright to quote your self.

I think I might consider it even more.
