Helmet with the best ventilation?

Keep in mind that the X11 has a fully removable liner while the RF doesn't. This may be handy if you do sweat a lot, as you can remove it and give it a freshen up by washing it.

I reckon this is a really good feature personally, but I do live and ride in the tropics and it is damm hot and extremely humid at times. When the inside of my helmet starts to get a bit on the nose, I love the fact that I can remove everything and wash it. Its like a new helmet after a freshen up!

Same goes for the Arai RX7 if you prefer the way it fits you over the Shoei.

forgot about the removable liner.... thanks for pointing that out..

some reviews ive read have said the ventilation is "bit" better and some say it is way better..
so better ventilation and a removable liner for $200 more...hhmmmmm not sure if its worth it...
wish i had the money to test both out..

well i finally made a decision... went with the x-11... got a good deal from todd at Home | Helmet Harbor.

thanks for all the input everyone.

yea i have no regrets about getting the x-11....the airflow on it is amazing, it fits perfect, and its extremely light. its a tad noisey but to me its just sounds like im driving with the windows down... so its nothing im not used to.

Good pick you wont regret buying an X-11. Shoei is good.
