Right, my trusted Nolan N85 is coming up to 3 years old so it's time to retire it.

I need something with good view, drop down sun visor and pinlock.

Shark and Nolan fit me best. Nothing flash or gaudy. Sub £200

Have you looked at AGV I think their K5 SV would meet your requirements and budget.

Not sure if this is the helmet Perkles has actually. Seem good kit at a decent price and some very nice designs.

I do agree with all the comments but I've had a couple of bargains off them, my HJC that I use for track days and Tbh prefer to my shoei GT Air was a steal and I got a spare tinted visor and a pin lock with it.

So long as the lid is legit I don't care where it comes from.

Other schemes available but thought black and green would go with the bike.
