The HJC has been OK. I bought it a bit on the loose side, and now it's quite loose (not just at the cheek pads).
Turning my head at 70 or over is thrilling.
Vents OK, I would like a little better for the hot days.
Face shield changing is good, face shield quality is good.
Weight is bad.
Vents are starting to age ... I expect them to fly off or wedge opened or closed pretty soon.
Slated for delivery to me this week:
1. Make: Shoei
2. Model: RF-1000 Nerve
3. Approximate price paid: $ 353.14 shipped with a spare dark smoke shield
4. Approximate age of helmet (in months): 0 months
Received the Shoei helmet last night. Wow. Lighter. Better quality. Better venting. Better fit and finish. Better peripheral viewing. Came with decent bag, breath guard and chin curtain (and spare shield). You definitely get what you pay for. Tested this morning at 50 degrees (was THAT cold this morning). Fogging was minimal. Will finalize test this afternoon in 85+ degrees (they're calling for it to be that HOT).
