If i remember correctly, the X-11 and RF-1000 fit different head shapes.

could be wrong though.

Vermeulen


or
Kagayama


or
Tamada

or the white one


I like all of them honestly. My wife prefers the Vermeulen, but they don't have it or the Tamada in stock so I can't see it side by side.

X-11 and RF1000s are two different head shapes, if you fit one you shouldn't wear the other if you are looking for max protection, if you want to find a helmet that fits your head correctly, you need to take a trip with me to meet the god of helmet fitting.

Exactly what I ran into. I wanted a rf1000 caster but it didnt fit. My x11 kagayama is perfect. And the best I found brand new was about $495 which the rep on the old twf said was around cost.

I have the RF1000 and find it a bit loose and VERY noisy.
