Amen. I wished I got an expensive bell helmet because I never have to change a shield
Didn't have it long enough to wash the liner lol
lol kellen I have the same one in same colours and the same patches of paint missing :lmao:. Exo700 is the best fitting helmet for my head, I've tried all others from Arai, Shoei, Shark, HJC nothing fits me like EXO700. Even other scorpions don't fit the same, EXO750, 1000, 1100. Wish they would make the 700s again
I wanted an RS-1 but it didn't fit nearly as well as the Vortex. Agree with others that fit > any other factor.

A good helmet is whatever you can afford. If you can afford a Arai, go for it. If you can afford a Nolan get it. 
Personally, If you aren't in too much of a rush to get a new helmet, you can just wait it out until one of these sites has a sale. www.motorcyclehouse.ca has 10% off right now and www.motorcycles superstore.com also sends out an email coupon. I would personally wait until they offer a holiday 20% off and then purchase.
Personally I have a Nolan. it fits me a bit better than the Arai because I think I have a unique facial shape. I know a lot of people go overboard on helmets. You don't need to spend that much,
you can get a HJC and still be protected. Besure to try on the helmets too. Comfort is key.

An HJC saved my life when I struck a deer on the 404.
They're decent helmets for the price, and my fiance is using one, a size small fits her well.
If you are buying for a female passenger, most fit small and extra small.
If you like RF1100 and want something cheaper, either get RF1000 or Qwest.Hey guys, for a "mid ranged" helmet which would you suggest? (something comparable to rf1100)I just bought a rf1100 recently, and now looking for a back up or a beater helmet or even a passenger helmet. HJC RPHA10?AGV helmets? Lets hear it guys. what helmets are y'all rockin?
Yah, I was thinking somewhere between a QWEST or a RPHA10, something similar to those. But Im really diggin this helmet.

trying to find something anywhere from 3-600$
big price range, alot of ppl are saying even less expensive helmets are very good ones, but I always thought its all about "you get what u pay for"
So Im not very sure LOL. I guess the max I'll drop on a helmet is $600

I have that lid and it's badass! Light as a feather and the viewport is amazing. Only negative is the finish of helmet seems cheap on some parts.
Anyway, I recently tried on the RPHA 10 again, and everytime I put it on I just say to myself how perfect the helmet fits me...and not to mention that super plush liner! If you're budget conscious, then RPHA 10 is a no brainer.

If you want a nice looking helmet with a good design and good quality, how about HJC rpha 10 graffiti helmet or the AGV PistaGP project 46 at www.championhelmets.com?
