I wear a Shoei Z2 and I love it. The shield will not pop up at any speed and can be locked in a simi-open position for more ventilation. It has a removable interior witch I think all helmets should have. Great helmet, worth every penny.

Hell no, you aint gonna get a deal that good from no dealer. JAS from the Borg had bought it for his wife but it was too large for her..& too small for him. So it was just sitting collecting dust. Brand spankin new, feels good too.

My ear doctor asked me to take Zinc supplement for a couple months, he said something about some medical study, but I couldn't understand most of what he was saying, the ringing was pretty loud.

I took the shoei out for a little test run.

Huge difference in the amount of noise level between it & my HJC. Same exact level of protection, but the Shoei is definitely a lot quieter.

Also fits my head better than the HJC does.

You're going to retire your helmet? What kind of helmet has tires? And what brand and size are they?

Well I bought my helmet but tried one on for size first to make sure that model will fit my head.I was bidding on a helmet on Ebay and lost but then got an email from someone else that they had a brand new one still in the box that I could buy.I bought a RF900 Piscal Picotte replica.I always liked the jester and hey the guy was one of the last to race the VR1000's.
