The lid I'm actually wearing at the moment I got free from BDL when they gave me a courtesy bike after mine got smashed a couple of years ago now. They were supposed to charge me £25 for it if I didn't give it back when they came to collect the bike. They never asked for the money and it's done 2 winters now (I know, it's not over yet!) It was a Ducchini D801.

It's a little bit noisy (I wear ear plugs anyway as normal) and a bit draughty sometimes (I wear a neck gaiter in the winter) but other than that, great!
I've also got a Shoei XR 1000 but that's for best.
(the lid I was wearing when I crashed was a Shoei XR 800, it did the job perfectly as I was bouncing down the road)
