Default Helmets

Obviously they all have to meet the same safety standards is there really anymore to them than colour, design and price.

I used to have an Arai cant remember the model, was a Slight replica was very comfy and kept alot of the wind noise out too.

Am thinking about sticking with the same make, just cos its tried and tested by me and i know nothing about the others that are available.

anyone know whats good and whats not so good

i got the Arai Astro-J Doohan rep and love it to bits, comfy, very light, doesnt mist up at all, only downside it suffers a bit from wind noise, which you soon forget about when ya ring ya bikes neck
