i'm not one to really trust ABS/polycarbonate blends from experiemce but they are cheaper and get the job done for low speeds, but for getting ur cage rattled it's worth spending some change on what gets the better reviews not just the prettiest graphics

i used to want the kbc racer1 when i 1st started riding cus it looked like the arai's n arai was outta budget n the racer1 just didnt feel right but dam that black arai is clean.

i rock a kbc vr-1 euro now for kicks, great fit, removable lining and that good d.o.t and snell rating.

I rock a Shoei Norick Abe replica red and blue for the streets. I rock a Rockhard Hustler in the lots. And I have the matching Hustler helmet for dirt also.

Re: whats your weapon of choice for helmets

arai makes the best helmet out there. They always have. I had an rx7 as my first helmet in 2000.

But to the best of my knowledge they have never sponsored any pro stuntrider ever. Someone correct me if I am wrong I think that's weak of them. So I would never buy another. I like shoei now

Thats kinda stupid, unless you know for a fact someone made a proposal and was shot down by Arai....How can you blame them for not sponsoring anyone, if no one has put forth a proper proposal?

Now if people have tired (with a proper professional looking proposal) and been shot down, then I can understand you feelin that way about the company...

Re: whats your weapon of choice for helmets

I have just always assumed that someone must of hit them up and got shot down because I don't remember hearing they sponsored anyone thats all.
They still make the best helmets
