      I think the Bell Moto is designed for wearing Googles, at least that is what I read somewhere @Graeme

          That's right.

          The Moto3 has a snap on peak (which is what I meant to say the Ex Zero lacks), but doesn't have the option for a face shield.

          The Ex Zero has a drop down face shield, but no peak in the box. I suspect that Shoei will sell one as an accessory.

                A couple weeks back I spotted some guy riding a moped wearing one of these  😎

                  what would you guys recommend in the 600cc sport bike department?

                  i've been looking at r6 from 2008 onwards plus some 675daytona and zx-6r..

                    Do you have to have a moped? I’d happily wear one to bed…

                        @louisbosco the Daytona 675 always had good reviews, but that might have been due to a parochial British press. 🙂

                        The Suzuki GSX750 might be worth considering too. A lot of people thought that it was the sweet spot between a 600 and 1000.

                              yeah i've always loved triumph for what it is worth. but i've been reading that the 675 is under powered compared to the same class during it's time. i'm not sure about a gixxer, never been a fan of suzuki (unless it's a hayabusa) and honda, which is why i didn't think of the CBR600RR.. i know the R6 has been proven for it's time when DR46 rode it, and you can get one at a pretty decent price

                                I've not heard that the Daytona is underpowered. It does have more grunt in the mid-range, or at least was reputed to, so maybe the top end suffered.

                                At the end of the day, you're probably not going to notice (or need) more than 100 bhp outside of a track day. 🙂

                                  You're not going to notice a slight lack of power, especially if it comes as a trade in for more character. The Triumph 3-cylinder block is legendary.

                                      Hey guys! New to the forum and IH (just got IHSH-62 and have 634S ordered) and figured my first post might as well be in the motorcycle thread. Here’s my Road King Classic. Cheers!
