Whats the best

I want to know which helmet to buy? What helmet has the biggest view? and not a dirt bike helmet.

Re: Whats the best

I'd also suggest the Arai XD or also Shoeis version too. It kinda looks like a DB helmet but has a shield and is more quiet and comfortable. I'm about to go pick up a DB helmet pretty soon.

Re: Whats the best

I just sold my old Arai so I could get enough moulah for the Shoei DS. It should be here any day now so if anyones interested, I'll post up what I think of it. Ever since my first bike I been rockin Arai's and got the Arai RX7 now so I'm curious to see how the Shoei DS is compared to that. Im not expecting it to be anything like the Arai RX7 but if it gives me a little more breathing room for the summer with a visor I'll be happy.

A half helmet is the only way to go on a hot summer day!!!....I usually use a shoei or a dirtbike helmet but when it's hot outside you can always get more practice time at the lot if your wearing a half helmet because it is so much cooler than a dirtbike or regular helmet!!!:YEAH.....and everyone could use some more practice time!!!......so in all reality the half helmet actually makes you a better rider.....it has me any ways!!!

Thats retail, I didnt pay that much i gave 580.00 for it. The new arai i have is one of the most expensive helmets they make. becuase of the graphic i guess. the only thing i didnt like about it is the star on the other side is red. i pulled it out of the box and was like, you got me the wrong helmet bro, then i looked at the other side and it was the right one. They only show you one view of the helmet on arais website. still a sick lid though imho

Hey buddy if you need some tampons or some vagasil they have it at your local wal-mart.....it sounds like you really need some!!! besides i don't wear it when i do switch back wheelies or ride the streets...that's just stupid!!!....i know it's more dangerous but when you do circles it is all you really need and that is what most people spend ther time on anyways.

Thats the RX7 corsair, right? It is a sick helmet. Very comfy, light & not noisy on the highways. I'll never pick up a bs helmet. Helmets save lives yo. I'm curious to see how the Shoei DS stacks up. I sweat a lot in the lots so I wanted a db helmet but also wanted a visor so when I saw the DS I was sold.
