A good thing to wear!
I just bought a new HJC AC11 - ZEEK in blue (blue svs)
I think this is an amazing helmet, especially for the price!
Fits well and for those who wear glasses it does not bend or break the glasses when you put them on with the helmet
Great ventilation too...
What do others wear...

I've been using AGV's for a while and have no complaints. I have crashed tested mine many times on the old scooter, never had a complaint.

Here is my new lid. I have a "Shoei Head" where as... Shoei fits my noggin the best. I just got the RF-1000 "Voltage" in blue. As you can see... Since my leathers are SPIDI RS... Blue, Black and white... with a bit of silver mixed in. Should look decent. I have a smoked screen on order...

i'm in the process of getting an x-eleven. the kagayama blue replica. i like the kato reps, but i can't justify wearing a dead guy's helmet. just creeps me out.
i'm wearing a KBC Wolf right now. In the black chrome. And I don't care what you're wearing (unless it's one of those new Soumy Extremes) nothing will get conversations started like that black chrome. great helmet cept the visor flips open when you turn your head @ 140 to check where all the GSXR riders have gone!
At least that's what I've HEARD happens...:blush:

I have a Shoei head as well - no other helmet seems to fit in the same way - at least they are half-decent which is some compensation.
JBJ, that is one nice looking helmet - bet you have a blue bike as well?

For someone who doesn't like race rep helmets, I love that! JR is a bit of a daddy! Who makes the Kagayama rep? I would have that if I had a blue bike.
But fortunatly I have copper! :third:

I never liked reps, but that just had to be bought. Being patriotic (Spelling) and a big Suzy nut :wub: , I just had to have it, plus I was a bit flush.
Shoie (Spelling) do Kaggy's lid

I just bought the ZEEK too. You are absolutely right in every respect. It's as if you were typing my own words.

Unfortunately my bonce just doesn't fit Shoei or Arai shaped lids :crybaby: and yes I have tried nearly the whole range of both.
So instead I got myself one of these Schuberth S1's
It's astonishingly quiet at almost all speeds :pokey:, fits very nicely :blink: and had one of those built in sun visor thingies so I don't need to keep swapping visors for a black one :pcplod:

I have problems with Shoei and Arai'... my head seems to be the wrong shape to fit. Only helmet that feels completly comfortable are Sharks so I have an RSF

I struggled to get a helmet to fit my head as it is an odd shape and quite large (XXL) fortunately Arai and Shoei fit my bonce, but getting one in the right sioze is a problem :crazy:
