Awesome!

Had this lid when it was on sale, absolute bargain!
Medium in size in all my lids so went for the same size with this, was a little too 'snug' at first but has broken in great-really comfy! Also super light, and to top it off it looks fab too! Very good quality lining and finish is great. Highly recommended. As always-brill service from sportsbikeshop, thanks.
