Just a word of warning not to use the helmet locking pins under the seat. I've used them a few times but came out of the cinema the other evening to find my helmet missing. The thief had nicked it by breaking the corner of the plastic unit together with the pin - I guess a hard blow to the helmet would do it.

Quite an old helmet so not too bad except it was very unusual (probably what made it attractive) so a shame to lose it.

Cheers

if there's one design flaw with the GTS, its the lack of space for a full face lid under the seat, pisses me off it does Evil or Very Mad

Open face is not for me personally, but I do understand the appeal and the argument that you get much better visibility with a piss pot....

There was already a thread about the pros and cons of open faced helmets - I didn't want to add to that just give a friendly warning to those who prefer full faced helmets and don't want to carry them around. I usually use a Pacsafe and always will from now on as the plastic pin is so easily broken.
