two cool options, buy the HAGA 41!! helmet, or buy a white one and get it custom painted.

I didn't specifically ask anyone to tell me which one they liked the best but as it happens people have, which is great - it's no different from chatting about which bike you think looks the best (or perhaps you think that's pathetic too?). I think you'll find a large percentage of the threads on this forum are people chatting about what they do and don't like, not purely requests for and replies with hard information.

The fact is I've been thinking about getting a new one for a while (whilst saving the money for one) which made me wonder how people choose - I haven't spent the last 6 months sitting in a room thinking solely about this, I do have a life.

Apologies if I caused offence, but the question has no answer: how do you explain personal taste...and how relevant is one persons personal taste to another?

Personally, I couldn't care less if someone doesn't like my bike/riding gear/choice of accessories, 'cos they are purchased with my needs/taste in mind and designed for my sole enjoyment, no one elses.

I'd love to have a pocketful of cash to go and buy bike stuff...I'd revel in it...and couldn't think of anything worse than to have bystanders (strangers no less) offer their largely irrelevant opinions.

But each to their own, good luck with your hunt.

For me, first thing is fit/comfort. I'm an Arai fan, best lid around. But each to their own.
As far as graphics go, this is in my opinion the coolest looking helmet around at the moment, and Rossi is a God!

**crazybigal** · 19th September 2007, 14:53

mate go with what fits!!!
i fell in love with the KBC airborne (the one with the chick) like a war plane.
Finally found one and it was the worst helmet i have ever put on my big fat head!!!
get a plain one and spend the $$$ on getting an airbrush job or some graphics

Welcome to the site dude. Darkman has just bought one of these and it IS a sexy lid for sure.

got a shoei with red swirls (reminds me of maori koru's). Besides, it matchs my motorbike LOL

Don't buy if from the US. - Get it locally - from an authorised and trained ARAI fitting agent.
You get recourse, warranty and local backup.

ARAI have introduced this service since this thread was started.
