Just curious what helmet you're all using.

The first helmet I bought, and Icon Alliance. I never used this helmet, and still sits in the box.

My daily helmet, which i'm looking to upgrade soon is a Shoei X-11

Very light but very loud... ear plugs are a requirement regardless of how short the ride is.

Mr. Kchan, question! How is that Simpson Bandit for riding? I mucho want but there is nowhere to see/try one on! I hear the eyeports aren't the greatest?

[kchan]

Mr. Kchan, question! How is that Simpson Bandit for riding? I mucho want but there is nowhere to see/try one on! I hear the eyeports aren't the greatest?

i tried it once.... and theres a LOT of wind noise lol

its super light which is great, but i would not use it for riding again because
1) wind noise
2) scared of damaging that cf :fullofwin:

[fT-z33wor]

I heard it was meant for automotive road racing and the helmets are designed to be used within a cabin in mind. They will not have as good of a seal around the eye port resulting in wind in your eyes at highway speeds on a motorcycle. For a hooligan helmet in the city you'll have a ball though however, I love the way they're styled. This was coming from my ex colleague who's now over at Honda Center.

Kchan please confirm, but that was his 2 cents. (Old man Ben)

[CharlieH]

i really want to add this one to the collection. such a sweet ass naked bike helmet.

i believe there are different versions of the bandit
some versions have more vent in the mouth earlier (mine doesnt) to help with fogging/defogging

i didnt have an issue with wind in my eyes

Also a really cool helmet. The ads with Rossi were pretty sick!

[dn53]

Shoei x12. I had an rf-1100 before but it got wreckt lol. unfortunately this helmet doesnt fit my sena speakers very well. Its also is a lot louder in highway speeds. However, its super light compared to my rf-1100 + keeps my head cooler. i love the art on it and the rear spoiler looks awesome (do i ever really push the need for it? probably not :lol). I usually wear earplugs on rides now.

The ventilation is going to be much more aggressive on the x12 compared to your 1100. The wind noise and lack of room for speakers is a necessary compromise when you start getting into flagship race helmets :neckbeard:. This is Shoei's top of the line designed to be used primarily for one thing.

I love the Daijiro Kato design though, it was recently re-released as a commemoration.

[Sunfighter]

The X12 is a great helmet for a warm day ... but you have to wear plugs or your hearing will start to suffer very, very quickly.

BTW, I have 2 helmet racks for sale. I haven't posted yet, but for RS $50ea, if no interests I will throw them on CL for $70. Fits 4 helmets and allows you to either air dry gloves or just throw them on the rack. Use coat hangers and hand your jackets off them.

[bobbinka]

i'm a new rider and it's my first helmet, so i don't really have a reference point for comparison (aside from the brief moments i tried on other ones). But if i had to point out anything, i'd say that it's very comfortable and lightweight. To be honest, i didn't really know what to look for in a helmet, especially when helmets range from $100 to $800+.... but i figured if this is good enough for them to use in MotoGP, it's good enough for me.

[Vale46Rossi]

HOW DID I MISS THIS THREADDDDD???


Will post when I get home :D

[Vale46Rossi]

Finally had time to come back to this thread!

Been super busy,

I started riding 3 years ago, and started to have an addiction for helmets!

http://i.imgur.com/R29Jv8l.jpg


This is where my helmets are being placed temporary as I am throwing away some stuff to make a nice wall for my helmets!


3 of the helmets are my girlfriends and the rest are mine!


The list goes:

Start from Left to right Top to bottom!

1. Arai Valentino Corsair V Fiction Red [Girlfriend's] (Got this for my girlfriend to match me when she just started riding)

2. AGV Valentino Rossi GP-Tech Elements (Never used it as I got it a few months back)

3. AGV Valentino Rossi Carbon Pista GP (My first Pista GP, was really hard to make this first purchase as it was a little too expensive, but my favorite helmet hands down, the vision and the lightness of the helmet is amazing! This helmet was limited to 1500 produced!)

2nd row

4. Arai Corsair V Fiction Black (my first helmet for riding!, I love the helmet, the one I use the most! Got this as a first helmet to ride around in, was recommended by many friends to go with Arai as you can't go wrong! Fit's my head great :)

3rd Row

5. AGV Valentino Rossi Double Face Winter Test 2014 Sole Luna Pista GP (This is a special one indeed, it's the first Rossi helmet to have a Sponsor logo on it (Note the Monster logo on the front and rear compared to the other Sole Luna Beside it) Also this one is extra special as when they made this helmet it was intended for Corsa version for the public, but for the Asia market they made 1000 of these in Pista GP where the helmet is a full carbon shell. The corsa has the same shape and size and the only difference is literally if the shell is exposed carbon where if on the corsa there were black lines, it would be carbon on the Pista.

6. AGV Valentino Rossi Tartaruga Corsa (This is probably one of the more popular Rossi helmets out there, out of a big group of my friends that ride we have over 10 of these in our group! It was limited to 2000 of these but if I recall correctly they ended up making another batch pushing it to 4000 made. I absolutely love the graphic of this helmet, as that morning Rossi unveiled this helmet at Mugello 2013. The only problem that I had with this helmet was that they never made a Pista GP version of it, I really do think the Pista GP version that Rossi wore during Mugello weekend would have been by far better but you can't win them all. What is also extremely awesome about this helmet is that on the side there is an illustration of 4 guys running in the colour, Orange, Red, Blue, Yellow, the story behind those 4 stickman running is about Rossi where he trying to chase his competitors in MotoGP!)

7. Suomy Chain Vandal [Girlfriend's] (This was bought when my girlfriend and I went to MotoGP at Laguna Seca, there were tons of booths there and we were able to score some great discounts! It is really sad that Laguna for MotoGP is not there anymore, but at the same time lucky to able to experience it before it was too late to.)

4th Row

8. AGV Valentino Rossi Sole Luna Pista GP (This is such a beautiful helmet, I actually purchased this because of CharlieH. I purchased it a few weeks after I bought the Rossi 46 Carbon Pista GP... I bought the Rossi 46 Carbon and help CharlieH purchase his Sole Luna Pista GP during a trip to Hong Kong and I opened the box to take some pictures along side my new helmet. I fell inlove with the graphic and ended up purchasing the helmet as well. I was looking at CharlieH's day in day out and actually the day I had to leave Hong Kong back to Vancouver, I called the rep at Dainese Hong Kong and told them that I wanted to purchase the helmet. But they were not opened, but because I was leaving Hong Kong that day, the sales rep actually went back to the store to open just for me to purchase this helmet, and I am glad I did as a friend of mine wanted to buy one after and was not able to allocate another Pista GP version and only the Corsa.

9. AGV Valentino Rossi Tartaruga Corsa [Girlfriend's] (Same as above!)

10. Suomy Gamble SR-Sport (This helmet shell is an improved version of the Suomy Spec 1R Extreme, this is a lighter and a new version to replace the existing top of the line shell made by Suomy. fT-z33wor actually owns the older version of mine which had a very similar graphic called the Gambler in the Spec 1R shell! The amazing part about this helmet is, it is super lightweight and it feels amazing! This is what I have been using as of lately for track!)

11. HJC Motorsport Helmet (This helmet was bought for me by my girlfriend when I was younger, when I used to track cars I would use this helmet and also go-karting! But since riding I have not used this helmet)


Not Pictured:


12. HJC Lorenzo Carbon Replica RPHA-10 (This is a beautiful helmet, the one that Lorenzo regularly wears during his MotoGP season. It's very light as well and looks absolutely amazing! I have this helmet store in Hong Kong for if I need to ever ride in Hong Kong :)


I also have 2 helmets on order at the moment, awaiting delivery:


13. AGV Valentino Rossi Misano Give Us A Hand Pista GP (This was debuted last season by Rossi and his team during Misano 2014. Same with the Double Face Winter Test Sole Luna, the Asia version will produce a limited amount of this helmet in Pista GP! This helmet should actually arrive to Dainese Hong Kong next month! If I recall correctly there are 1000 of this helmet in Pista GP made! This helmet is really cool and shows that Rossi is such a down to earth guy and he cares about each and every individual person on his team! The helmet feature hand prints of Team Movistar Yamaha MotoGP team mechanics which was always behind Rossi and he pays homage to them! Also the helmet has the paw prints of both his dogs Cesare and Cecilia, his cat Rossano. But also features two lipstick prints from the two most important women in his life, his mother Stefania and his girlfriend Linda. The helmet also features the fingerprint of Aldo Drudi who is the designer of his helmets! What is also amazing was that Rossi won this race which is always very special to Rossi as he was infront of his crowd, family and friends. I can't wait to receive this helmet)

14. AGV Valentino Rossi Snow Flake Winter Test 2015 Pista GP (I just ordered this helmet yesterday as it was made available for pre-order yesterday. The Rossi Snow Flake winter test is a pretty cool looking helmet, I think it is very suitable as a design for "Winter Test" as this is during the cold season and right after the Christmas Holidays where everyone is trying to stay warm. The helmet features the colour that Rossi likes to use which is florescent yellow! On this helmet there are Christmas/Winter theme on it there are Reindeers, Christmas Tress, and snow flakes. The best part about this helmet is how ironic it is, it was debuted at Sepang where it was extremely hot, even during the day it was 30-degree weather!




From what I remember that is basically it for my helmet collections! Only thing I have left are some toy helmets that are replica of Rossi's helmets and some other toys!


If anyone have any questions about my helmets feel free to ask and if you would like more close-up and detailed picture feel free to ask and I will go take some nicer pictures of the helmet you guys would like to see :)

Where do you guys get most of your helmets from online?

@Vale46Rossi - Seems like you have enough Pista GP's to open up your own shop. I'm all for super light durable helmets, but i'm still a clumsy one so maybe not so soon. Any recommendations for the best purchase? I have a K3 & K4 do you know if the sizing is the same with the Pista GP's?

Also how do you guys fit your helmets. I bought a large K4 and it fits fairly tight but as it wears in its getting a little less snug. If I purchased a medium size, it would be freaking tight for awhile.. Do you guys usually just pick up a tighter one and it works out in the end to have better fitment?

[racerman88]

Should be really snug when new but not so tight that your head hurts. As the padding breaks in, it will loosen a little. Remember, you can always replace the pads in the helmet.

[racerman88]

Pretty sure Bayside carries AGV stuff.


I guess I should have specified in HK while I am here.

To be honest, and don't take this the wrong way...

The K3 is a piece of crap compared to any other AGV helmets, they are cheaply made and its entry level.

Pista GP is shaped a bit differently as well, but the Pista GP offers A LOT of customization where you can adjust how it sits on your crown.

The K-3 is no where near the quality of the GP-Tech and that's almost a decade old.

Ya, I know, I totally get that, unfortunately its just what was affordable at the time. I'm in love with the Pista's but just slightly out of my price range. If I start tracking then that is a must have purchase.

I wish I could do AGV helmets but they don't fit me even on xl. They seem too narrow for my head lol. My Arai is a meduim. I love Rossi's wacky graphics especially the face one

Holy fuck dude I think your helmet collection is worth more than my life.

[320icar]

Wow. I need to step up my everything game

[radioman]

Why does that helmet say Asian fit lol!????

[smoothie.]

asian fit is really important.

different head shape

[radioman]

My helmet didn't say white fit though! Did I get the wrong helmet?

[Vale46Rossi]

Other than the turtle and the regular sole luna that Rossi wears, this is probably one of my favorite ones, I dont know why but I really like this design, its hilarious and awesome.

Actually, I have not really found a difference between (Asian fit) version and normal versions, as I own both a Rossi Tartaruga (turtle) in both DOT N/A version and my Asian version. (Tartaruga is limited to 2000 copies in the Asia one and N/A version actually has 4000 copies)

The only difference I know of between "Asian" version of the helmet is that the ugly xmas sweater version in Pista GP trim was only made for Asia where anywhere in Europe is actually in Corsa (Pista GP being full exposed carbon)

In Asia they have released a few helmets that are only available there in Pista GP, like the misano hand print there were 1000 copies made and I believe the ugly sweater as well!

[kr4l]

After seeing this posted, I needed to have it!

I only ride in the daytime. If I am going to be riding past dusk, I switch to a clear lens

[Raid3n]

I carry sunglasses with me, so i just change back to my regular glasses. so clear visor all the time. though i do want to get a tinted one haha.

AGV just released a LCD Visor, with the touch of a button it changes from tinted to non-tinted.

I have been using it now and its pretty damn good.

I will post pictures later today!

[Raid3n]

150$ visor? lol

[Vale46Rossi]

Actually it was over $250usd including shipping and now a lot of stores in the world are completely sold out of it....

Regardless, its a fraction to the helmet that I am putting it on, and to me buying a product that I will use very often is the more important part as using it often will make an item more worth it for me.

The visor is actually pretty handy, as a guy who always leaves home in the wee mornings and dont come home till well past midnight, it for sure saves the hassle of leaving your visor open (or even bringing an extra one)

With the touch of a button I am able to have a tinted visor that will block out a lot of the sun and at the same time I can turn it off and be able to use my visor like a normal clear visor!

The battery life so far has been amazing, one full charge since I got it and did over 6-7 rides with it already (always remembering to turn it off after use)

The only thing that bugs me a little at the moment is that it's not as dark as I am used to (I always used the darkest visor available) but it still does its job and I am very happy with it.

I am actually looking to purchase a few more but I wasn't able to find anymore as they are completely sold out!

I have a minor update... got back from Asia a few weeks ago... added something to the collection...

Two of the helmets (to the very right) are not mine, they are a friend of mines and he left it at my place but other than that, all are mine and my girlfriends :)

I hope it's a Pista :D

pista or corsa - i want one !!!

[kchan]

for those looking to get the agv Tartaruga (turtle) - it will be coming to the agv k3 helmet

it wont be as good as the pista/corsa but it should be priced around $250?

vale - did you order the pista project 46 2.0?

I ordered it but I have mixed feelings and might pull out of that one, I really like the gloss carbon more.

Agreed, I think the gloss version looks much better for this helmet.

[Vale46Rossi]

Bump!

As winter test comes, there are always helmets that get released by many brand which includes a Rossi one every year ;)

So Rossi released a Snowman one to sort of go with his ugly xmas sweater one

https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpt1/t31.0-8/12622349_1176206452407397_8573148796471261841_o.jp g

I think the last one is better than this one but I still really like it! So I have told them that if they are releasing this then I would like to have this one!

I dont think I would be wearing this one much as I dont have a Yamaha in my stable at this moment, but perhaps that could change :D


Another one that got released and that I can't wait to own (if they decide to sell it to the public) is the Andrea Iannone helmet which is this

https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfa1/t31.0-8/12622498_1174752389219470_7201181160202503604_o.jp g

Which pays tribute to the seagull (RIP) that he headbutted in the race! IRRC he finished 3rd and got podium! Which was a great race as well!

Good to add to the collection considering I daily a Ducati and you know... posing and shit :P


Also AGV / Dainese has confirmed that they will be releasing the Shark Helmet that Rossi wore in Misano, again it will be a limited piece of for the people who regrets not buying the tartaruga.... Dont sleep on this one!!!! Asia will be releasing this helmet in the Pista as well and limited to 1000 or 1500 pieces as well.



Also just sharing a picture of my collection now! :)

If it fits you, you can't go wrong with an AGV helmet.

I have told MANY friends this, don't even cheap out on gear, I rather them spend money on gear than buy a more expensive bike, as this gear is transferable and it will make a bigger impact on your riding career than you need it :D

Got this on an impulse as my first helmet. Then realized it's a "winter" helmet.
Still meets ECE and DOT so it's ok.

Now I've realized I have a "Shoei head". But damn, those AGV helmets are SICK! Anyone know if the fit is similar to Shoei?

[kr4l]

My learning experience.

Small shoei is not the same as small agv. A small agv is super tight. I would think a small shoei is comparable to a sml/med or even a medium agv

There is just something about helmet porn ... so much lust.

[double0seven]

Why did I look at this thread! Now I'm itching for a new helmet and I don't need one.

Does anyone use an AGV helmet wearing glasses? From what I remember, it didn't fit too nicely with my glasses on.

You've finally posted something cool :lawl:

[taeyoung92]

anyone have experience with the agv k5? looking to buy a second helmet without spending too much money (I just replaced my older arai with a new one) I've tried the k3 before and it felt like crap (no offence) are the k5 and k3 similar?

[areyez]

do any local shops carry Rossi's missano corsa helmet?

[GC8]

Pacific motorsports had them before xmas I am not sure now

[DIEH4RD]

Aiko??

Check out Pacific motorsports. If you're talking about the misano shark helmet, they have a couple. They had a small and medium small I tried on.

[areyez]

yee...ray? will go check it out

[Karlkarlng]

Arai RX-Q best and most comfortable fit imo. Suomy is excelent as well

[Dharminder]

just throwing this out there hope its ok in this section.

Where do you buy your helmet local shop or online?

Good local shop(s) that carries a wide variety of helmets (different brands) so you can try on say a shoei or arai with out having to drive across town

It's been a while since I have logged in here but I remember there is this thread so I decided to come back and share and give a little update :)


https://i.imgur.com/yjuA294.jpg

A little bit messy since there is a lot of stuff everywhere now, I will be adding a new cabinet next week since I got a few new helmets and also have some coming in :)

I added 2 new helmets this week, brought it back after coming back from Asia which was sitting there for a bit waiting for me :)


I added this one to the collection, its the Rossi 2016 Winter Test in Pista GP

I also added the Rossi Sole Luna 2016 Pista GP-R to my collection

The Pista GP-R is the new flagship helmet of AGV with some upgrades to the Pista GP.

It features a new liner with better material for the pads, different spoiler, and also a Hydration system built in ready to plug in!

My helmet that I picked up last year. Needs a lot more break-in time but I like it.

I have a Bell MX-9. Worn it for about 1500 km through Shanghai and Bangkok and I've really enjoyed it. No hot points although the visor is a bitch at speed.

Hey y'all my Dad and I are going to go explore Thailand on motorcycle/scooter and he needs a helmet better than the plastic baseball caps that people use there.

He doesn't need/want anything fancy as he won't be riding much/at all back in Canada after our trip.

Any suggestions on what he should get and where to get it in Vancouver? He has a pretty small head and wears glasses.

Go to a shop and tell them what you want and they should fit your dad properly and get him in a helmet within his budget and means

Whats your dad's riding experience? IMO I wouldnt cheap out on a helmet even for short term. Obviously we hope you guys dont get into any accidents but if they were to happen a cheap helmet wont do you any better than a bicycle helmet. My first helmet was a Kaos carbon fiber helmet (Now known as Riot $275), crashed and hit my head doing about 50-60kp/h and got a concussion. Not a fun thing. If your dad isn't experienced the roads in Thailand aren't great and potholes are everywhere. Get good gear.. Plus if you cant keep up with the locals who rip around town, you have a higher chance of getting hit.

Cheapest full face most people recommend is HJC CL-17. DOT and Snell 2010. It's the best budget track helmet at sub $200. You will see guys doing 300+ at the track in these things.

He might want a 3/4 (Bell 500, $120) or a Dirt style helmet (AFX are pretty nice around $100) though as tropical heat is no joke and heat stroke/ dehydration is probably just as dangerous as wearing no helmet at all.

[tdeweyn]

You could easily find CL-17 on CL for like 100-150 still in good condition if not new.

Thanks for all the tips guys! He ended up getting a half face ZOX helmet. He actually crashed twice (at low speeds) so the helmet definitely saved his head (although he was quite shaken/scraped up)!

There are so many amazing helmets out there these days!
