Your Lid

I got a Arai Vector lid.

 

AGV S4. I really like it, very light weight and balanced. Only problem is the wind noise, but with ear plugs, its not bad.

 

suuuuuuuuuuooooooommmmmyyy the only helmet that ive had that doesnt make my head feel like its gonna get ripped of by wind and g force

 

as a designer/artsy fartsy type i d like to pose the question of why are helmet graphics so dizzy ing and busy.it seems that breaking you sillouhette up makes you less visible right.i do like that scorpion black dahlia though.

 

It seems helmets have become fashion as much as function. People choose them as a personal statement.

 

you may want to try one of the exo-1000's on, because they have the adjustable cheek pads.

i like the helmet, but im afraid that its not breaking in the way i had hoped, even after 4000 miles i get a few pressure points sometimes after about an hour. but thats not really the helmets fault.

 

I had a Shoei X-11 but would like to try an RF-1000. The only problem is that the head liner isn't removable so that could cause a hygeine problem. Why would Shoei make the cheek pads removeable but not the head liner? Other than that, I hear it's a very quiet helmet.

 

I have a Scorpion but am really close to buying the Shoei Diabolic. I think thats the best helmet I've seen so far.

 

NEW HELMET! The old Sparx was a little loud and started to get uncomfortable after long rides so...



Love the drop down sun visor and pockets for speakers... HJC IS-16 - Scratch. Got a great deal for $168 with no tax! (SLOVFR :tongue2

 

Where did you get it, what model and how much....NEED MORE INFO MAN.

 

lids

Shoei x-9 troy lee, old and smells like a goat. my current Icon Domain. Kristins Icon Mainframe Eternal Saint.

 

Shoei TZ-R Traveler Black with Dark Smoke Shield. I picked it up for $190.00!

 

Scorpion exo-400, red and black Tsunami. Wearing it in my pic to the left. Great helmets.

 

Had a White Shoei Z-one (now is getting some colour) and i now use a Arai GP 5X (you can see it in my avatar, the helmet its similar in shape to the helmets they use in F1) last week ordered a Takachi TK 110 (What do you guys think about this lid?) to match my red leather suit.

Let me see if i can post a pic

I can't post pics...try the link above, its the red one.

 

No link!...

Let me try to post the link to the takachi helmet...

Sorry have to learn how to post pictures in here!

 

My trusty lid:

HJC CL-SP ANIMUS with matte finish.



Pretty comfortable and I can live with a bit of wind noise. $130 when I bought it in 2007. Has since gone for $90-100.


Any suggestions for helmets that fit similar shape to HJC? I need just a smidge more room in my forehead area(though might just shave a bit off with a dremel)

I would like to get a SHOEI RF-1000 Camino in white. However, the last SHOEI I tried on was a bit small in XXL, even though the stated dimensions were the same as the HJC. That helmet however, was a RF200. Has SHOEI changed their sizing dimensions at all over the years? I will try on the newer ones eventually but the nearest dealer is more than 20 miles away so I'm just trying to do some research ahead of time.

Hope it works now...i think this is the takachi i ordered last week



And this is my current helmet...

 

Hey sound that Shoei is really sweet!
