I finally had the opportunity to try on several helmets the other day while a new rear tire was getting installed on my TBS.

I think I liked the Shoei x11 the best. The Arai Profile fit my noggin very well, but no way could i get my glasses in there properly. The glasses went into the x11 quite easily.

I tried a nolan, just didn't fit my head. The new SymaxII HJC looks pretty nice too, but it does not fit me as well as the original SyMax that I am using right now.

I wore each around the store for about 15 minutes.

So now I still need to find and try a Schuberth.

I am not in dire need of a new one, but likely by the end of the year I'll come off the bucks for a new one. I've pretty much decided to go with full face instead of modular this time.


Scorpion still in the running, just need to find the EXO-700 in stock to try on.
