i think i'll try other brands than shoei.
i've narrowed my choices to these, which do guys think will be the best?
Suomy Ventura Explorer Red Helmet

I think...
you should try them on instead of looking at the graphics.

those are cheaper than my previous RF1000.
the RF1000 w/ graphics cost so much and i wanna get a non-plain looking helmet this time around.

yeah, of course but im not gonna travel crazy far just to try on a helmet.
i bought all my gear online.
the sizing chart seems to work me in all the gear i've bought. they don't fit like it's custom made for me but one can't expect that from off the shelf products.
they have a return policy anyway.

Well, not bad. I'm not much of a graphics helmet guy though. I prefer a nice solid color.

On second thought it doesn't seem like there' much up there worth protecting, buy whatever you want.
You've just relegated yourself to forum troll in my eyes. And your posts will be looked at in such a manner.
