| Just an observation but opinions are often divided b etween Arai and Shoei, if one fits and is comfy, the other doesn't.
Top of the range helmets aren't cheap, but neither are new heads. Go for the best/most comfy/best fit IMHO.
I bought my first Arai in the early 80's before Spencer made them famous and with working as a despatch rider was over the moon with the comfort wearing it all day long, every day.
I've only really tested a helmet properly once when doing and enduro, when i head butted a tree, was unconscious for about 10 minutes i'm told. The tree never recovered but fortunately my happy smiling bonce remained intact.
I love Arai's, one of my favourite bits of kit |
