SLAM !!!

Arai & Racer X = OWN3D

Outdated earpod design, one of the worst visor removal systems, and way overpriced IMO. The only thing above-average about Arais is the liner quality, and maybe the paint.

Well my ROOF that Rez sent me was over 6yrs old so I NEEDED one...plus the wife didn't want the Noland that came with the RT (he GAVE me a new com helmet that his daughter wore like 3 times) because someone ELSE's head had been in it....despite me removing the liner and washing the hell out of it so when I saw the Suomy deal.....

This thread reminds me that I need a new helmet. Now that the season is over for me I'm going to wait and see if there are any deals at the bike shows.

I have a terrible time finding helmets that fit my head.

Only two brands to ever fit have been HJC and Icon. I've only owned HJC's. That's why I'm waiting for the bike show....lots of sizes/brands to try on.

I wouldn't count on it. The bike shows haven't had deals for years.
