This helmet seem like a great deal on a carbon fiber helmet and I need a new one because my scorpion one isn't good anymore
Also the scorpion large fits me perfect and I know they run a little small. Do HJC's run small too? Thanks

A friend of mine has that helmet. It looks sweet for sure. Very high quality.
I have a HJC AC10 (not carbon) and the size does run slightly smaller than my Shoei.

Looks smart but no noise rating.

Anybody know of a noise comparison chart for helmets?
It's my biggest gripe, you can try helmets on for comfort but you've no idea how noisy they'll be when riding.
My old Shoei Raid wasn't too noisy & fitted well, it's replacement, a Shoei Raid II, fits pretty well but is hellishly noisy, I can buy a kit to quieten it, but that's not really the point.

Mr_grumpy webbike.com rates the noise level as "Very Good". I use ear plugs so I'm not to worried about the noise. http://www.webbikeworld.com/r2/motorcycle-helmet/h jc/fs-15/

Crazyhorse how would you say the size is? does it run a little smaller that the helmet size says it does?

Sheesh, for that price, I'd go buy three more Scorpions.

it runs a little small . I bought a large and the cheek pads were to tight so i ordered 18mm and 22mm pads and the 22mm pads make it snug and the 18mm are good for the long runs.
cheek pads make the differance.
