Korben Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Hi MateWelcome to the forum!! Drop into Newbies and introduce yourself mate.Got to admit, I am the same as you. Never heard of these.Looking at their official site http://www.marushin-helmets.jp/ they look pretty impressive though. Try one on and see if it fits your head.

Guest akey Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I love the look of the x-moto helmets, but I am unsure of their safety rating / build quality. SHARP have not tested them yet either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHARP have not tested them yet either! Yeah, the fact that they are cheap is what makes me unsure of their safety. not found much info on the web about them either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princess125 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Marushin helmets are part of the Frank Thomas range and are very good.Although there are much better availableCaberg for examplex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 i tried the carbon one on and i was impressed by the fit they are supposed to be pretty good lids too remember all helmets have to pass the minimum safety tests before they can go on the shelf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Theres some seriously seriously nice lids there. Might have just answered my wanting of a new lid.

dreadycraig Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 well, tried a couple of marushin helmets on today, sadly they pressed against my forehead I had a good look at them, they seem well made for a budget lid and comfy (if my head was the right shape) and very very yummy graphics!Bought a HJC rg-15 instead.
