Shark Citycruiser Lovely helmet but does not come with a chin curtain, so looks a little unfinished without one. They can be purchased separately so not a huge issue
Shark Spartan RS Carbon - Skin Matt Carbon Bought to replace an out of date earlier model, so was pretty sure it would fit, but appreciated the extra features at a similar price, all backed up by Sportsbikeshop excellent service. Ordered on saturday and delivered on sunday!
Shark Spartan GT Pro - Gloss White A very good fit, easy to put my specs on.
Visor fit is good, noise levels are better than the outgoing Shoei NXR2, sun visor is a bonus, so far so good.
Delivery time was good and it was well packaged.
Shark VZ300 Iridium Visor V2 - Road Legal I recently swapped out the standard clear visor on my helmet and honestly, it’s a huge visual upgrade—it looks absolutely great. While it is fairly expensive for an accessory, it definitely delivers on looks. The blue tint is sharp and clear from the outside in daylight. It would be nice, though, if it came bundled with a Pinlock insert to help manage fogging. Interestingly, from the rider's perspective, you get a subtle yellow tint which I actually found quite useful for boosting contrast in low-light or overcast conditions. However, since it is tinted, it noticeably reduces visibility at night, so you’ll definitely want to avoid using this one for any dark evening rides and swap back to your clear visor.
Shark Spartan RS - Spoiler It's always frustrating to damage a new helmet, but I was actually glad the spoiler was there. I dropped my fairly new helmet from a low height and cracked the spoiler, but I'm pretty sure it took the impact and didn't transfer the force to the wider helmet shell. Replacing it was easy to fit as a spare part, though I do have to admit it feels pretty expensive for what is essentially just a piece of moulded and painted plastic with a few screws. Just a quick heads-up if you're tackling the replacement yourself: the screws are hex-type, so make sure you have the correct driver before you start the job.
Shark Replacement Base Plates - S800 / S600 / S650 I thought i was going to have to buy a new helmet when I had a little accident with my helmet. But these little beauties saved me a fortune. Good value also. They fit my shark ridill 1.2 perfect.
Shark Ridill 2 - Raging Beast Black / Violet / Yellow I've been using the helmet for a while, had to get the pinlock for it as it was steaming up without, otherwise it is a comfortable helmet, easy to open and shut.
The chin strap could be slightly more comfortable, it can feel like it is strangling it I don't have something underneath it.
I love the design, very easy to spot
