Helmet thread!

[-stew-]

What kinda lid you rockin? I just picked up a Shoei RF1000. They call the grafics "Artifact," I wanted something neutral and ended up matching my jacket and gloves; but at least it wont look stand out against either of my bikes. Quiet, comfortable, stylish. Picked it up a few months back for a good price. Not super nuts about it when I'm riding my 748, hunched over with my my head up in the riding position of the Duc my grille is a little closer to the chin bar than I like. And with the visor open on the first notch to keep the fog away it lets a shit ton of air in and blows it right on my mouth and up my face into my eyes. The HJC I had before this the visor could be cracked just enough to keep the fog away and not freeze your face off.


What you got?

FML...

Could a mod please move this to the Riders forum. Thnaks!

Scorpion EXO1000. Custom painted. No pics of the paint. Love the helmet. Internal tined visor, cheek pumps for perfect fit. A little on the heavy side but otherwise love it.

Not a big baller like some of you

I am rockin a Scorpion EXO400 Snell certified, and safer that my 15 year old Shoei RF700.

I had the EXO 1000 and loved the flip down sun visor but hated the cheek pumps and the paint peeled in like 3 months. Now I'm rocking a gloss black EXO400

I have this exact helmet and I got the tinted sheild and chin guard. So far I like it, could use a little more air flow when its hot out but I like it more than my old brain bucket. Nice lid for under $100 brand new.

^^^^Yup from them the 400's were a great price but sold out of my size in all models http://sportbiketrackgear2.homestead.com/geronimo.html

FYI they run a little tight but loosen up after you wear it a few times. I believe L XL and 2XL are all the same shell and it is cheaper to buy new pads elsewhere in the size you need than Pay for return shipping and shipping of new helmet if you get the wrong size. Mine loosened up but I was checking into it when I first tried it on.

I should really pick up a new lid. Do you guys buy local or online? Maybe find something you like that fits then order it?

I usually buy my bike stuff, for mine and the wife's bikes, from Ride in New Berlin. Good service and good prices. My Helmet I ended up getting from Sportbiketrackgear.com from their closeouts. Also great service and quick shipping.

[SSScottSS]

Gloss black HJC FS-15, but I'd really like to get a Scorpion EXO 500 with the sun visor like the 1000 has.

[BoosTT]

Shoei RF-1000... Nice lid. I paid around $300 new a few years back. My grilfriend got an brand new closeout rf-1000 for something like $85.... It's size xxxs though, lol.

I usually buy all my gear online. Kneedraggers and compacc mostly. I helmet needs to be tried on first though or have a return policy.
