What Helmet Do You Use Most?

I use to love my Arai's helmets but jump ship when I slipped on a schubert c3 pro at dealer show in Cleve, Oh and never LQQkED back.

Most of ours are Icon and we have the models, Mainframe, Alliance, and I just added an Airmada. Also have a couple HJC CL15's that don't get much use.

I use honda cleaner polish to clean the faceshields, if it looks like rain I will put rainX on.
Just don't use an ammonia or alcohol based cleaner on mirrored shields, (I learned the hard way).

Good to see I'm not the only helmet hoarder on the board! I just pre-ordered another new Variant. I never use to like Icon helmets but they have made a big step up in quality in the last couple years. I love my Variants. Too bad the new one won't be here until April!

I've had the Gmax helmet because it was the only one that I found that was pearl white. But found a brand new in the box, never worn (discontinued) Icon Hayabusa Airframe helmet for cheap on Ebay. Fits a little snug, but easily 40% lighter than the GMax.

Arai Quantum E Raptor in blue, AGV Biaggi replica, Icon Aliiance Dark, Icon Airmada Elemental. I just picked up the Icons over the winter since the Arai and AGV are really too old to wear now. I am impressed with the Icons. No, they don't have the same plush factor as the Shoei and Arai helmets I have had in years past but they are very good lids for the price.
 
Did some, let's say, "faster than speed limit" riding yesterday with my new Icon helmet. There is almost no wind noise compared to my old Gmax, and a lot less head shake. I also put on a Zero Gravity DB too, but I wasn't tucking. (First real ride with new helmet)
