The X series (oval) fits completely differently from the RF series (round). They are not interchangeable unless you are just buying a helmet based on price and a spec sheet.

my scorpion is pretty neato for the price i paid-good fit, looks good, doesnt fog, comes apart really easy for washing , but i want something alil better. i see no problem buying a $500 dollar helmet, if i can get it for $200 with some savvy shopping. even found shoei's for 230+, depending on graphics. actually spending $500 tho is outta the question. thanks for the good infoz

I have to admit that he totally got me with the "round/intermediate-round" fit descriptions of the fit between the RF-1000 and the X-11. Of course, I'm not a Shoei guy by nature so....

They do look good! I have an Ac-12 Carbon fiber...sucks to wear compared to my Sharks imho. NOT EVEN CLOSE.

I'm more of a plain helmet kinda guy - solid colors and such. Do you have a pic of the Sharks?
