    new "dual purpose" type helmet

    Vemar have jumped on the "dual purpose" motocross-lid-with-visor bandwagon. VRX7.
    http://www.bikersweb.co.uk/Features/...?ArticleId=974

    So there's now quite a few of this style of helmet on the market...

    Airoh S4
    Arai Tour-X
    BMW Enduro
    HJC CL-XS
    Marushin X-Moto
    Shoei Hornet (not officially available in UK)
    Vemar VRX7
    flat out on utterly inappropriate tackle

    Very nice lid and we sure are spoilt for choice now. I am still happy with my Marushin X-Moto and can't fault it compared to my previous system V helmet

    Cant seem to find any pics of it with the visor down - any idea if is a good fit and will keep rian out or is it just a debris stopper for the super-moto boys?.....

    If its a good seal then I might have just found my new helmet.......

    I was joking.... I do remember one of my Aussie aquaintances getting upset at being taken for a kiwi, but you must be one of the less sensitive ones.
    Don't think that I'd be bothered with the ashes, being Irish. but they were embarrassing weren't they?

    Went for the Arai Tour-X in the end in 'Challenge Yellow' - its kinda 'day-glow' and fairly un-missable.....

    Nice fit, quiet, light with good visability over my MXlid/goggles combo, nice one all-round I reckon.....

    Got it from the Heine Gerricke shop in Glasgow - 349 notes - bit pricey, but its my head in there so what the hell......
