Sure looks the dogs balls ill give it that 8)
But whenever i consider a flip lid i think well why dont i just get a cool looking open face and some cool goggles because i wouldnt trust the flip part in a crash and if anything....right or wrong i can see the flip part jarring, carching, disintegrating and turning into lots of spikey bits right near my face and neck.
Sorry slappy....thats really morbid...just my thoughts......im a cheerful foccer :evil
Edit...oops sorry mike....not trying to make you paranoid mate :lol

Actually Noggy your thoughts reflect mine a bit, that is worrying!
Never had a flip lid because I always felt that full face would the "safer" option but now I have to wear glasses for distance a flip lid would be handy, more and more riders seem to be using them and I have never heard of one coming apart in a crash but it is always a little nagging doubt in the back of my mind.
I suppose they must be tested to see if they could come apart and they must be safe but then again.......
