ShoeiRF-SR

Helmet has a good fit. Light and small. No big melon head. I added the photocromatic shield and it looks killer. I recommend this helmet.

At times, the sum of the parts is greater than the whole. At least, that's how it seems when rating the components (comfort, value for money, weight) versus the product. This is my third Shoei helmet. I also have, and have owned or tried, a variety of helmets by other manufacturers. There's a reason I return to this one. Quality. Quality and security.To date, I'm enjoying this helmet. I'll enjoy it more once it's broken in and I've progressed beyond the "my ears are going to rip off" when removing the helmet phase (a skull cap, balaclava or comparable covering will alleviate this malady), but it is on course to become a favorite. The helmet I purchased before this one is the Shoei RF-1100. Prior to purchasing this helmet, I considered the 1200, along with the air and helmets by several other manufacturers. After a great deal of research, I (obviously) chose this model. I'm happy with the purchase.Presently, I primarily ride bikes that have a design best complimented by an upright riding position (classic, standard, street, et al). This helmet works well with that. The RF series definitely benefits from a more aggressive sitting position. Anyhoo, I could go on, but I'm not being paid to write this. This helmet is a quality product. I recommend trying on helmets prior to investing in one. While doing so, remember that quality doesn't cost, it pays. Also, protect those ears.

If you’re looking for a quality helmet look no further. One of the best helmets on the market at this price. If you have a bike with an up right position this helmet is perfect

This is a great helmet. I had it before years ago and just bought the newest version. I’m giving it three stars here to hopefully draw Shoei / Amazon’s attention. For this much money, and for a helmet that’s effectiveness requires it not being dropped, the packaging was terrible. The top of the box was untapped and opened when I grabbed it by the built in handles. Scares me to think about it’s journey from warehouse to here.

I loved the true Matte finish. It’s a very simple helmet. It fits a little bigger than expected, not by much. I returned bcuz I found a matching color to my bike and that one was more updated w/ a couple more features for the same price. One less star bcuz I asked for my card to be refunded but instead I got a gift card:/
