Your Dream Helmet

Ok, if you could buy any helmet you wanted which one would it be. Post a picture of it

Mine will still be the Scorpion EXO 700 or maybe the EXO 1000. If Vemar helmets were still available maybe a silver painted one made of carbon fiber. Scorpion on the left view, Vemar carbon on the right. Also here is a nice thread on a review of a Vemar helmet. Apparently now they are only available in European standard. They used to be available in the US with a DOT and/or SNELL standard.
Vemar Motorcycle Helmet - webBikeWorld

Son of a gun... the Vemar is DOT approved. I want to try one on. I'm really liking the red VSR2 in the photo of that web bike world link.

BTW, i think the paint is ChromeIllusions and a Dupont paint store can mix it up for anyone.

Well I would like to go to a shop where they have basically every helmet made and in every size available. That would be the sheeit! But yeah I bought my Shoei X11 recently and I really cant ask for more. Great fit, ventilation, light weight, cool paint job (Kiyonari.) I love the Norick replica though....

Saving penny's for this one.

KIYO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shoei X-11 Kato Memorial. I probably would never wear though.

why not? i probably wouldn't either but what's your reason?

hmmm Ive never seen that one. If I got it I would wear it all the time to show the respect. Thats just me I guess

the exo-1000 looks like a great helmet, inside visor and cheek pads that can be inflated to fit your face better.

can't say I've found anything better than my Suomy Extreme. fits my noggin very well, comfortable, cool, and I can get my glasses in with ease unlike some other helmets. only downside is its noisy.

Already got it..........

The Arai corsair TT 100th anniversary edition, i can't even find a picture of it, i only magaed a glimpse of it at the TT when they went for auction.

Here in Phuket I was bloody lucky to find a Shoei Z4 and believe me I hunted around. Have to say the same as you for the Z4. I'm well pleased with it.

Now that's a cool helmet. I bet that's expensive, though. While you can't put a price on your safety, you can on your bank balance...

Well, I can't really say what a dream helmet for me would be...I think I have the best helmet out there right now, for my head shape...and that helmet is the Shark RSR2. Very comfortable and light, to the point where I even forget I have it on sometimes. I especially love how they design their helmet's EPS liner with crush zones. As a Shark rep said, "in a crash, the helmet will protect you but it gives it's life to do it." I can live with that, especially if it lets me live with that.


As for a dream helmet, maybe my RSR2 with an internal visor and the Reebok pump-style cheek pads like a Scorpion EXO-1000. But with an optically correct internal visor, unlike the EXO-1000, and with the pump type feature only around the bottom of the pads, to act similar to the chin curtain most helmets have in front.

And a dark smoke visor that looks like a dark smoke from the outside but works like a high contrast (amber) visor from the inside?

With built-in chatterbox/bluetooth functionality?


Yeah, I think that will be all for now.

AGV gothic is my dream helmet . Love the looks

This is mine, str8 from Japan. Gottit off speedzilla, dont have batts 4 the cam.

schuberth carbon

my would have to be Arai rx7 Tommy Gunn

I want a helmet that doesnt weigh anything, i cant feel it, doesnt opstruct my view and is invisible but protects me great.

I hate helmets.
