BETTER HELMET? Which ONE? thx...

HELLO EVERYONE, CAN ANYONE PLEASE TELL ME WHICH HELMET IS THE #1 PEASE DO NOT INCLUDE $PRICE$ IN YOUR CONSIDERATION. (your head is worth more than a couple hundered dollars) JUST hands down FACTs, WHICH IS #1. THANKS YAAA... 1.) SHOEI X-ELEVEN 2.) ARAI RX7-RR4 3.) SUOMY GUND-WIND 4.) OTHER (which-one?)

anyone there????

Try posting it in the Motorcycle related section -- ya may have better luck there !!:hellobye

I have never tried Suomy so I can't comment on them, but you can't go wrong with Shoei or Arai and you're choice between the two should be based on fit. I have the Arai Quantum /f and RX7-RR4 and both are great.

Vemar :yesnod

Arai or OGK. ~A

4.) OTHER ---> AGV X-Vent(a.k.a. EVO also) :thumbup :crash

ARAI!!!!!!!!!

ARAI every time! You only realise how good they are when you switch to another brand. I wear my wife's Shark Carl Fogarty rep and I tell ya, it's no contest.

They all fit slightly differently so try them on and see which fits your head well. :beer

Stay away from Helmets that don't vent air. Fogged up masks in traffic or anywhere suck. My wife lost one of her students, a high school kid, that way. His visor fogged up and didn't see the truck turn in front of him. Yeah, there are sprays etc one can use but an air vent is a requirement in my book.

Originally posted by valentinik Cool... you finally decided to go with the Hayden replica...:) Yep, $399 off of ebay plus $28 for a tinted shield. I couldn't beat the price!

is that a brand new arai for 399 or was it used?...im planning on getting the rx-7 corsair in the edwards replica blue. Arai makes awesome fitting helmets and they look badass too!

Arai here... Well all these high end helmets pretty much are close to each other and shares the same specs and features, fit and comfortability is the one you need to find so I say go to the dealer and try them on and see w/c one fits you the best.

Originally posted by MotoMike is that a brand new arai for 399 or was it used? Brand new outta the box, plus you get free stickers. Shipping was $15, and a tinted shield is an additional $28. The list on ebay alot. Great deal and easy to deal with!

Has anyone tried on the Shoei TZ1 Eros...just asking how did it fit and feel

I want a vemar!

I'd go with the top of the line Arai or AGV... Shoeis have always been lacking in my experience but the XSPs look nice... Suomy's were like a wanna be RX7RR4... and run a size smaller..

I hate to get on the band wagon but once you get a arai it's hard to go back to anything else. 2nd choice if i had to would be a suomy spec 1r ;) ;)

For the Suomy Spec 1R, all I have are awesome things to say about it. I know I'll be a fan for a long time. I have about 150 miles with it and I don't think I could of bought a better helmet. :rock

ARAI RX7-RR4:beer

I think most helmets out there have a similar fit. All but the Suomy. The Suomy is a very athletic helmet in size weight and fit. It is smaller and lighter then most helmets. The coolest thing about it, is the ability you have to keep your head on a swivel. I love the fit. It took a while to get used to because my chin felt exposed, but I never want to take it off now. And for my money, no one beats their graphics. Extremely aerodynamic with very little head shake at high speeds. I like the Arai, but if given the choice I would always take the Suomy.

Try them on, many helmets fit very differently :beer

ogk ff4 helmet great lid

shark rsr:fact

SUOMY GUND-WIND

AGV - X-VENT or XR-2 (NOTHING LESS)

The X-11 is probably the best helmet out there right now. It's head and shoulders above the old X-SP. Here's a review done by Helmet Harbor. http://www.helmetharbor.com/streethelmets/helmets/shoei/X11_eval.htm

My buddie just got a SHOEI X-ELEVEN he said it's unreal how nice it is. It's light and he said It almost fell like the nothing there up to his old RF-800
