My System 7 Carbon helmet is 8 months old. The mohawk-like appendage (officially known as a spoiler) is held in place by 3 plastic pins embedded in the helmet. Well 2 of the 3 pins have broken, allowing it to rotate on the intact one. Has anyone else had this problem?
I took it into the BMW dealer where I bought it. The service manager said he'd had a similar problem with another System 7 but hadn't been able to remove all the inner linings & bits to secure the new part from the inside. So he was assuming I'd get a new helmet. He forwarded the warranty claim for a new helmet to head office but they claim a new spoiler can in fact be fitted. So when the new part arrives I'm to take my helmet in and they'll have a go .... again!
