    Re: what helmet is everybody wearing?

    Shark RSR (my fav helmet so far) - track helmet - all cracked up since i cartwheeled down Le Circuit (mt. tremblant) in May
    Shoei RF1000 - track helmet - replacement for Shark RSR above, should've gotten a Shark RSR2 instead
    KBC VR1 - my daily ride

    will definetely go and buy another Shark - the best/most comfortable helmet i've had, better than anything else I've tried, it's like it hugs your head!
    where's the wind?!

    I have 2 Shoei RF1000s and a Suomy Spec1R ...

    I love the way the Shoeis fit and it is a lot quieter than the Suomy ...

    The problem is that I love all of the new designs that come out every year ... I have more than enough helmets, but I really like the look of this new Shoei design:

    Shoei RF-1000. Light, quiet, uber stable at highway speeds. I'm happy with it, just wish the ventilation was a bit better.

    Last lid was a Kiwi (when you could still buy them in NA, damn lawyers!). Was a ton heavier than the lids today, but had the greatest visor system ever.

    My friend loves his XD I got for him off Ebay, for the city riding. On the highway it sucks anything over 120km/h.....Its got a sun visor so its not gonna be too comfortable at high speeds, you can remove it but then it looks funny...

    KBC VR-3. Best bang for the buck!
    Its light, vents good, and cheap! It is a bit snug though, but then again a sport bike helmet should be snug.

    I've tried the Street Bandit Outlaw which is probably similar to the regular Street Bandit and it was quite comfortable. Looks great. The non-street Bandits are no where as comfortable since they are for racing only. BTW the Stig wears a Simpson Diamondback.

    That was my first helmet, then I crashed and found a last-minute auction on eBay for the Diabolic 2 TC-5 for $205US. Freakin' good deal when I spent $600 on the above...
