Depends on the shape of your head, but look into Arai an Shoei

Yeah that is a shame. But atleast they can help with sizing for me and color

shoei and arai are the best in my opinion.
I have owned a rf100 and just bought a x12. I also have an arai rx7 corsair.
The x12 is a fine helmet but the arai has far better ventilation. that was a big disappointment for me when i got my x12. air is just ok with this helmet. My complaint with arai is the visor changing system. ive broken some aspect of it 3 times now and getting parts from arai is next to impossible. Plus the pads on the inside wore down too fast in my opinion. Thats my chief complaints with arai. Fit is everything though... good luck

One little thing many forget is the chin skirt. The littlepiece that goes on helmet under your chin. Doesnt matter the make of helmet but with this in it will prevent helmet from lifting as well as stopping air from coming in.

I am King EL CHEAPO, glad to have helped another orgster find a bargain I have been trying VERY HARD not to buy one (already have a Shoei, an Arai and Icon) BUT that price is so darn good for a new Shoei RF-1000!!!!

 

[jeepinocala]

To me I felt better in it then the rf1100 I tried both of them on and a aria the aria really felt uncomfortable the rf1000 felt nice the rf1100 was probably the same but I did not care for the fin being part of the helmet. Either way great price these are still selling for alot in the stores. Oh and the store said price 459 but we will give 30% off I thought

The best helmet is the one that fits you perfect. Fitment is extremely paramount to your safety and the chance of you surviving a crash with minimal head injuries. MY favs are Arai, Shoei and Shark Helmets, but then again it really depends on your head shape. Some brands are known to make different internal shapes. Arai has the most widely available helmet models with different internal head-shapes for a semi custom fit for most anyone.

icon airframe, you cant go wrong.

It will all depend on the fit and how comfortable it feels. Every helmet is different as is everyone head shape. Arai and AGV did not fit my swede, ended going with HJC HQ1 Carbon Fibre.
