Anybody on here got a Shoei RF1000 helmet? What do you like and not like about it? I've got an old RF700 that has definitely earned its retirement. It has been a fine helmet in that it's comfortable, absolutely watertight, the visor pivot and attachment mechanisms are smooth and durable. Thank God I've never had to give it the ultimate test! The RF1000 is the direct decendent of the RF700 (I think the same visor fits both). If the RF1000 is an improvement over the RF700 I want it.
