I bought my glamster last fall- and posted about it here earlier in the thread-

http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread....#pid287692

Love it- extremely light 1215 grams, looks great- should be good protection, and comes with the pinlock.

This is my 4th or 5th helmet with a pinlock. I would never buy another helmet without it.

That's a great lookin' helmet CJ. I like HJCs - they've been good.

All my pinlocks get lost in the basement somewhere - never used.

Good eye PG.

I have a younger Marantz - just pre-HDMI - and probably the last of that generation. I will never let it go. Very clean sound reproduction.
