NG_S3,
I would go with B, that is a pretty cool looking helmet.
Helmet A will stretch your neck like a giraffe on a speed triple without the pixie.

I have a black Arai Quantum II. I am very happy with it, its light, comortable and cool.. My only complaint is the shield. I have a clear and a dark tinted shield and i change them depending on the time of day. Every time i change the shield it feels like im gonna break something (havn't yet). My HJC was cake to change the shield.

Stretch your neck like a girafffe. LOL! Yeah, that visor will have you planespotting! I have an Arai Quantum F. Great helmet, but you gotta wear earplugs for the wind noise.
Oh yeah, can you photoshop those forks, and everything gold, silver, pref. or black? The only thing I hate about the new S3.

That's the most elaborate helmet decision making mock-up I've ever seen.
Perhaps you should make one of those spinning three dimensional virtual tour type thingys before you decide.
It is obviously still winter where you live.

I love #3, I've been considering buying one myself. Now that I know how it will look on a Speed Triple (mines a 1999 model, but close enough), I think I will buy one for sure.

Nice work!

P.S. photo-chop that ugly fender as well!

NG_S3,
you are the photo shop bomb, you already chopped the fender and painted "C" green. That British racing green looks good....and the black forks...sweet

Can't help you with the helmet, but do me a favor and photochop the bike with silver frame/wheels and red paint. I'll owe ya... :razz:

C...all the way. Great combinations and colors! You have an artist's eye.

FWIW - I have the KBC racer 1 and found it to be an excellent value. Arai wins in outright quality, but my KBC was 2/5 of the price for just about as good.
