New screen and new hat

Screen was a bit tired and a bit cracked ( well being mine it would be)
and I didn't have a hat to match the bike .
Hmmm what goes with white wheels?
Flip Screen from M&P £46 and Shark lid from Helmet City £180
That little upward curl really does make a lot of difference. Now the bugs do not get splattered up inside my helmet.

Ive just bought this!

i bought the Red and White ( obviously) and got 2 screens, and a fog free liner and carry case too.
It fits a treat with the Glasses, and was so cheap from a local shop.

I got a similar hjc lid last year, very cheap and its great, theres little channels for my glasses, 2 visors, built in huffer, which I removed as I don't like them. my only gripe, is a squeaking noise as it rubs against the top of my jacket when I look left or right.

I paid £76 quid a ruddy bargain, my Shoei was £300 and hurts like shite after an Hour. I wore the HJC for 3 tankfuls and its been great.

that could be the Jacket, or your neck!

i'm going with the jacket.....
I will say that the hjc is very light, which in turn gives it a cheapish feel, but the interior is plush and comfy....
i'm looking forward to my new bell lid when I get back from spain, I just hope it isn't to big....

Best screen I have used so far... Just not the prettiest
Every time I decide looks are more important and try another screen, the new one lasts a day before I put the flip back on.. The wind protection is more important when you are 6-2 and have flat bars
