this thing is sick
my friend has one and its got liek 2 leds on the back that looks like exhaust and built in white led into the visor to act like a flashlight.
its only 3.7lbs too.

Shoei Z-II plain white.
Apparently makes for great visablity and it's comfy as hell hot or cold weather.

Arai Profile -Pearl Black



Most comfortable helmet I've ever put on my head.
Looks cool, and is, because the vents work well.
The only problem is that the "pearl black" (semi-matte) finish scratches easily.

dont worry scratches and paint chips are like battle scars.

true, until your helmet gets rejected at a track tech inspection because of it, then its a bit more frustrating.

Shoei - went down wearing it, VERY comfy, low wind noise, fogs up fast $600
Icon - comfy, a bit noisy, but i wear my ipod so it is good, less foggy. $350
Cheapy - passenger helmet size small , doesn't fit my big head so no comment $120

next one will probably be an Arai or a shoei

Icon Subhuman, Great helmet, Wind noise is not the best but I to wear Ear phones.

I have a Shark S500 also, That used to be be my main, but Now its just a spare...... Not bad Wind noise isnt that bad.

The Girl Has a ICON Kitty Helmet, She just likes it because its pink.

[Andy n]

I have a Arai RX7. I had a HJC before it is nothing compared to the Arai. Low wind noise and light.

[RZ500grl]

I bought this cause I liked the graphics (not a bad helmet either).....but my fav is still my plain red Shoei.

[DeeCBR]

i actually own another akuma. so i know their sizing. my friends helmet is about quarter of an inch too tight.
