BTW webbikeworld.com is by far the best site out there for researching helmets. They're the only ones that try to give you a sense of helmet shape for head fit.

thanks, bcuz i have no idea what i'm doing
. the hjc and the bell star may not have fit U, maybe the x11 doesnt fit ME. personally while the reviews are great to watch, thanks for that info, and thanks al for the links and video, final say so comes down to how it feels on my head.

I know that there are a ton of people that think that Scorpion helmets are bee's knees but typically, those same people have never owned an Arai, Shark or Shoei high end lid.

the white/carbon shark looks badass, but too out of my price, i found the silver/carbon shark for 399, but even thats not close enough to warrant me trying it on lol
my scorpion is pretty neato for the price i paid-good fit, looks good, doesnt fog, comes apart really easy for washing , but i want something alil better. i see no problem buying a $500 dollar helmet, if i can get it for $200 with some savvy shopping. even found shoei's for 230+, depending on graphics. actually spending $500 tho is outta the question. thanks for the good infoz
