If you want a cheap lid, Go for a box helmet.

I got one to do my bike test on and it lasted well, Now does for a spare helmet after i upgraded to my Shark.

Think ghost bikes in Preston do these pretty cheap.

Easy!

Winter is coming on Ian - thinking i should save as much as possible, sell the Punto ASAP and hope my bird doesn't want to go on anymore holidays

Should have 10 - 12k to spend then. Really want a Type R!!

Alternativly, i put the Punto in as trade and take some credit out. Not really wanting to do this.

Leave the helmet till you've been and enjoyed tracktime. No point buying now to find you don't like being on track and you've just gotta sell it again
