Fit is number one! Nolans seem to fit me best as I have an oval head. The old BMW/Schuberth seemed to fit well also. Finding one that fits you means you will wear it. I do wear mine 90% of the time but once in a while on lonely back roads it's nice to don a hanky helmet and be in the wind, especially when it's over 100. Soak you hanky in water and cool your head! |

I feel that convenience is more important even than fit, although fit is a part of being convenient. The helmet not worn is of no value no matter how well it fits, and bluetooth/music from my phone in the helmet means it goes from being a burden to a welcome addition to my riding gear. |

No one else has said it, So, the RF1200 does squeeze my cheeks on my face more than I like. But tolerable. |

Several years ago I had replaced my old HJC helmet for an Icon helmet, I was happy with the fit/quality of the helmet, but it just seemed louder inside then my old HJC. I ended up selling that to a buddy and bought a Shoei RF1000, thinking it may have been quieter, it fit me well after buying smaller cheek pads, but needless to say,seemed like it wasn't any quieter then the cheaper helmet. |

Just picked up a Bell Star Carbon.
Lovely helmet. A tad noisy but the airflow is off the charts good. |
