RF1000 garbage or what?
 

Im looking for a nice helmet that i wont care as much about as i do the mechanica but is still comfortable. I dont care for the graphics on the one im looking at, and was gonna see about offering 100$ (hes asking 150$).

I'm not a Shoei guy but I've owned a couple and found them to be good quality. Whay are you using it for?

By the way... how about a Shark RSI.... $150.

There's a ton of $300-400 lids on sale for about $150 right now. If it's a bitch lid you need, I have a Scorpion EXO-400 I'd sell for $50 plus ship. I think she wore it 5 times max.

just a comfortable helmet that im not afraid to leave attached to the bike and looks decent. I have a beater but it is uncomfortable as hell and im sick of it.

Ill go try on a shark in the few days

Send pics the worst i could do is buy it. No hurry.
I forgot you have your own gear warehouse, with its own closeout deals :)

What size do you wear?

xl 7 5/8 to 7 - 3/4 big goofy looking head

The RF1000 has a non-detachable liner so when it's time to clean, you gotta wash the whole helmet and let it dry, but otherwise it's a high quality helmet as typica of Shoei products.

Wow.....hella gay. I can't think of any other helmet like that.

I have a shark RSI. Great helmet. Very comfortable. Extremely light. But, its loud and I have no visor lock. When I'm going fast and do a shoulder check, the visor sometimes opens.

Size? Got pics?

True.

Besides the liner issue it is a quality lid.

I've had three and wouldn't hesitate to buy another if I needed a new lid.

Decent helmet for sure.

I like mine

I like mine. Solid black.

Don't know about you guys, but I've never needed to wash the inside of my helmet. The outside is a different story :lol: I love my RF-1000. It may not cost $700, but it's a great helmet.

Anymore, I think I prefer a non-removable liner. one less thing to get messed up up if the velcro on my gloves stick!

Whats this washing helmet liner business?

Guess you guys like skanky liners. Washing it ain't that difficult.

No- it's just that my head don't stank!

THIS! I washed my liner once at the end of last season. Nothing changed. And it definitely doesn't stink.

Throw a bounce sheet in it during off season and all is good

I just leave it out with air circulating. Never store anything -gloves! or dew rags/bandannas- in it. I usually don't even put it in the Shoei bag it came in.

Anyone else HATE new helmet smell? It's like new car smell 1/4" from your face. :td:
