One thing different, a Shoei will break your collar Bone. How well can you see "UP" with your chin on the tank??

Hey whats the deal with Shoei's and breaking collar bones? Strange thing is I went down 2 years ago on the 405 freeway at an estimated 106 mph and broke my collar bone, among other things and i was wearing a Shoei. Why are they famous for this. That is a great looking Helmet, but i hear the visors are a pain to change and expensive.

The Arai quick change visor system is one ofthe eaiest ones I have found to use, far easier than andy of my AGV's or my fulmers, or the Beiffe I had...I toasted my Arai on the track this past winter, so I am gonna pick up another one, prolly when I am down in Myrtle Beach.....
Thank God for good gear.....

WHOA HDL - that could have been your noodle! I have a simlar helmet from an accident a few years back. My friends and I call it "the convincer". If ever in doubt about wearing protection - look no further than "the convincer".

was looking on the website I think I am going to stick with the Quantam series that I had, and find me a replica edition thta I like...that way all the parts off the old helmet will interchange with it....i still have sheilds for my old Quantam and a few other do dads....

Ihear ya Red, if I cold affor 2 i would buy them and keep one for the street and one for the track....anything beats the Fulmer I am wearing right now....I may even go back to AGV for a track helmet, my top vent was a bit quieter than my Arai at speed, but nowhere near as comfortable to wear for hours on end.....
