... is the ease of shield replacement really a deciding factor for helmet. My Caberg isn't tough at all and even if it was I've only done 2 replacements, so it wouldn't be a deciding factor.
Absolutely can be a deciding factor - If you have two helmets that are perfectly fitted, comfortable and meet the same safety standards you are looking for - I would go with the extra $100 and the Shoei just for this factor - I change at least twice daily for day and night riding. Should never be an initial factor looked at in helmet choice, but can certainly be a deciding factor much the same as graphics - frivolous, but often a deciding factor.
