Visor prices

Post by duke63 »

Buy a visor and new pinlock and you are not getting much change from £100 these days

That's a sizeable junk towards a new helmet which already has them both.

That's mental.

It does make more sense to get a new lid

I would suspect that most visors, and helmets are made in the EU and the UK does not want to be part of that. That means that manufacturers can price as they want and there might be duty added on import.

its raw material costs and the power to operate the molding machines that have put the prices up
