it's natural selection if you are stupid enough to ride a motorbike with only a turban and die.

Spend the most you can on a lid it only needs to work once. All the helmets have to pass a standards test now so even the cehaper ones come with the the kite mark on the back.

everyones head is different i bet there are hundreds of thousands of riders who hate arai and swear by other makes. In this day and age if you pay good money for a product the chances are its going to be a top product. What i'm getting at is that with todays technology and r&d they do it would be harder to make a shit lid

Agreed. Thats how i wonder how people come to the conclusion that Arai is best
