Shark Evo-line Flip Helmets

OK. In from lurking mode...

I'm researching helmets and came across this helmet in my local Yamaha shop. (I think it's a fairly new model from Shark) It was very comfortable and the design features are brilliant.

But, the question is: how is it in real life? Does any one have one, and if so, how does it perform?

Thanks for any info.
David

Re: Shark Evo-line Flip Helmets

Nope dont have one. Did have the RSR2 shark. Hella good helmet. Large round open vent in the center chopped bugs into chunks and then dropped the pieces in your hair. Some still alive.

Other than that a wonderful helmet.

Wink Re: Shark Evo-line Flip Helmets

I love sharks, i've had like 4 of em. Now i currently ride with the RSi Alien. The shape is nice, but what i love is how snug it is all round on my head! Very comfy.

Re: Shark Evo-line Flip Helmets

that looks like a better quality version my old caberg trip

shark helmets fared quite well in the new SHARP tests introduced in the uk which is comforting.
