I'm due a new helmet...
  I've always worn Arai because they fit, are good quality and last long enough. I've tested them on track (like, *really* tested them!) and the after-sales service is second to none; they replaced a chin vent at WDW during a service free of charge without even asking. So I am definitely having another Arai... 
 My dilemma is that all the paint schemes at the moment are a bit ... dull! 
 My previous two have been the John Reynolds / Union Flag design because I really liked it. Before that I had a Simon Crafar rep because that too had the Union Flag on it as part of the NZ flag design. Call me patriotic... 
 But there's nothing in the current range that I like. The nearest thing  that looks any good to me is the Arai Chaser V "flag" like this...  
 
  This is now discontinued so I'm looking at old stock through ebay or being lucky to find one in store. I've not got a problem with this. 
 I do like the Lorenzo reps, especially now he's at Ducati, or maybe even a Dovi rep, but I just can't convince myself to move away from Arai. 
 Am I right?
