Guest Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 PS: I wear an Arai Corsair ...Nothing but the best for my fabuloustastic brain y' see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korben Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Still on my first helmet which is a Shoei. Very happy with it. Wind noise is low, it's very comfortable except for my big ears hurting if i don't wear a balaclava to pin them back, and generally does everything I need.When searching I tried a Shark, a Arai, and a AGV as well but none of felt like the right shape for my head. Once the Shoei went on though I just knew it was perfect. I think it's like that for most people though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shark was pretty close, but was still was not perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might blaspheme next time and get a shoei as an experiment Quite fancy a Shuberth flipfront for commuting ...........And AGV have some nice designs ..But I doubt I'd go for any of the newer makes ... just don't trust em like I do the old names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 ive got a caberg trip , got the flip front and sun visor inside, very pleased with it but looking at the new one and the new nolan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaaan Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Roof boxer Vhttp://www.iguanacustom.com/catalog/images/boxerv_mattblk.png Me too only in white. Used to have the previous model too and love them. Super confy although a little noisy at motorway speeds...nothing that ear plugs won't sort out tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I have a Nolan 102 N flip front.The outer sun visor broke fairly early on and was rendered not just useless but dangerous. The Bluetooth add-on is nigh on £200 on top of the cost of the helmet.The new Nolan has an internal sun visor and could prove to be better - the Caberg touches my nose with the visor down.

queen bodecia Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I have a Suomy Extreme Montiflower. I love the look of it 'cos it's gold and glittery and flowery. It fits superbly and is very light, however it is also very noisy, earplugs are essential. Also the vents on top can make it quite draughty...
