[dave_xb12r]

Sorry dude but hawks on helmets aren't allowed on Buell riders. :p

Did you take that from a 13 year old girl on a quad? haha j/k!

[Devlsmurf]

Yeah the helmet Hawk is about as cool as tight rolling your jeans.

[kajer]

I get a new helmet paid for by my insurance. :)

[Bordsnbikes]

When did tight rolling jeans go out of style!?!?!

[shilohsk8]

We used to call that "pegging" your pants and it's mandatory when you to a Depeche Mode show.;)

[Furball]

what does tight rolling pants mean?

[dave_xb12r]

I'm pretty sure its where you fold your pant leg longways to make it more narrow, then you roll it up.

[EVLXB]

It's called a french roll dude - and it is rad!

Come on erkblack no need to get upset with people having fun bragging up what they have! We all brag about our bikes cause we are proud of them and there is no reason to no be proud of nice gear as well.

Btw Thaloc that helmet is straight up bad ass! Never seen one before so I'm definitely appreciating the fighter pilot design.

Hey Thaloc, that is the craziest helmet I have ever seen! It looks like you should have a full arsenal of weapons strapped to you body!

[CoxyXB9S]

Id rather ride crazy than stupid.....hell ya tight jeans and a pink buell jacket....not to mention white sequin gloves. For what its worth.[cool]

[CoxyXB9S]

Hey Look Guys! I found a picture from 1988 of devlsmurf! Making fun of the tight jeans. Everyone did whether you admit it or not. http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/2823_20090225163313_L.jpg

That late 80's pic is classic. I used to rock that same style at that time with the acid washed jeans right down to the Bones Brigade t'shirt. That brings back some good no responsibility skateboarding memories (I think I just teared).

[ROJO]

LOL that pic is totally rad!!!! haha..I graduated in 1990, so I was right in the middle of that crazy BS. Hey Coxy, are those 88 Jordans your wearing? I love it!!

I actually don't know what shoes those are. I believe they are jordans or la gear. I just found it on the internet and decided that it was fitting since my helmet is only as cool as tight jeans with the pinch roll. lol. heck i was rocking them jeans too. cant hate the 80's. I bet that erik buell was rocking them jeans when he first came out with the buell back in 83!

[kajer]

i like my plain ol' scorpion exo-700

[shilohsk8]

Those shoes are airwalks in that photo with the velcro over lace saver covers.

[Devlsmurf]

hmmm, don't recall my little brother ever owning a dress :) THALOC: that helmet is AWESOME! straight out of a Sci-Fi movie.

[03fire9r]

Have to go with kajer with the scorpion. IMO best helmet for the money, EXO 400 black/silver

That helmet meets the European ECE R22-05 certification standards....not exactly sure how that relates to DOT standards though.

Nah its not DOT approved. Steve was right it is Euro union approved and also Snell approved tho. Also if you wear contacts or your eyes are sensitive to the wind I would not advise that helmet. You get ALOT of wind around your face, def not a winter helmet.

LeFox is that airbrushed? that looks really nice!

Also the other is for the long trips, little more protection and quieter. Plus it matches the ink on my are, just a reason for why I liked the helmet.

OSBE Rufus

[xtremelow]

tf1182, how much does the mask move around at higher speeds with the rufus?

As noted above I have the tornado and I feel the only down fall is the mask movement. But once I get my other mask in the mail I am going to try something that will hopefully eliminate the problem.

[tf1182]

It catches the wind pretty good. The first time I took it on the highway, it pushed my head back haha. I'm used to it now. You'd think a helmet that looks like a fighter helmet should be aerodynamic haha. What are you getting that will eliminate it?

[xtremelow]

I have an extra mask coming in the mail and my plans are to simple use gorilla glue or zip grip to glue the face mask(also have an extra shield) to the bottom of the sheild inside the little lip of the mask which should allow for no moveminet at higher speeds.

[and85]

first of all i think if it is a law and that also for safety then it is same for all so all are required to follow the law

[xtremelow]

Looks like your helmet would have enough lift to pull you off the bike

How does that do on the highway?

[TechMagic]

well that was my only concern but I shopped around the "adventure touring/supermotard" style crossover helmet is newer and wicked looking, unique like a Buell. So anyway naturally Shoei had the one with the best review on everything including lowest airfoil effect from the visor. I don't have any problems unless its a blustry day, and on those days the whole bike is getting blown around so no big deal. It's worth the "what the?" looks it gets ;)

[only1reds]

I have a shoei X11, but added a jet black visor

[RichMc_09XB12Ss]

only1reds,

How long have you had that X11? What are your opinions on it?

I just got one, and so far I'm lovin it. I can already tell the air flow is going to help so much this summer.

I started with a medium and it had a LOUD whistle and also felt a little loose. The small is a little tight, but no whistle and I know it will break in and get more comfortable.

I've had the X11 for about 6 months. I love it. Had a SUOMY Gambler Extreme prior to this one, too big. I felt like I was a spaceman.

With my X11 I hit the highway, and IMMEDIATELY cool down, love it. I have a medium, but I wear a fleece ski mask to hold down my Ipod earbuds, so it fits extremely snug.

Overall, I rate it a 10

[only1reds]

hey tuneport67ss is that a x-11?

[tuneport67ss]

To be honest with you, I have no idea what kind of helment it is. All I do know is that it has AFX on the front right above the visor. It came with the bike when I baught it.

It was all white with the skulls and in a flat sheen, but when I added the translucent red it loks wicked in the sun with the flat and the gloss sheens on it.

[only1reds]

Nice, I believe you have the helmet I have by the looks of it. If so, that's an awesome helmet, in addition to your sweet artwork. [up]

Can't wait for my new brain bucket to get here ...

Even though I've read some not-so-awesome reviews, I'm getting a Scorpion EXO-1000 in the matte black Sublim design. Get a mirrored visor and tint the inner eye shield a little more and I'm set!!

I've heard good things from my friends so I hope it works out.

[GatorBuell]

I have the EXO-1000 in Matte Black, its a little heavy compared to my HJC AC12 and when I ware my backpack it pushes up on the back of the helmet, kinda annoying, its a little loud without earplugs but I like it. Deff need the darker inner shield over the stock one on bright days.

[redliner172]

For those who were curious, ECE is Europes DOT and they are a goverment sanctioned entity. The EPS is softest on the DOT and hardest on ECE which means upon impact the ECE has less "give" inside the helmet. BUT with that being said, ECE studied HUNDREDS of accidents over the course of 8 years or so and tested their helmets according to real world crash scenarios so, in that right, its the safest helmet. DOT is great as well, even though its considered to be terrible but in a 3 way study of helmets DOT actually came out as being extremely safe. Snell is alright, but they test their helmets on "one in a million" scenarios. You know...just in case you are going 180 mph and slide head first into a stationary "round" concrete pillar lol.

Anyways, no matter how fast your are going its the height of the fall that is the most important i.e. a fall from 4 feet at 100 mph is the same as 10 mph. From that point, its what you slide into or how many times you bounce up of the concrete. ANYWAYS I digress.... From all the helmet study I have done, even though I have an Icon and it saved my life once, for the money the AFX Dark Angel helmet is quite possibly the safest and best looking helmet (not to mention cheap)on the market.

redliner172, I bought the Bad betty for my ex-gf, she really liked it. I bought the &-sins helmet from cyclegear on sale. I had another 707 helmet and really liked it, another reason I got it was because if I wrecked I would either die with my sins or i would get to live with them all again. I was going to get it tattoed on my leg and I believe now I will. Funny thing is, the leg I was going to have it tattoed on is the leg that was messed up in the wreck.

Hi 303xb

it's the Caberg Sintesi (107) it's a full face and Flip up that's why i love it.
Not sure what the retail price for you though. I purchased it from a friend of mine who works at one of the shops with the Bluetooth system for about the equivalent of maybe 220 USD. (I live in Dubai so i'm not sure what the retail price for the helmet in the US)

have a look at the link.

i'm not sure how to quote other posts, but on page 4 afinley posted his helmet up:

http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/5103_20091118231631_L.jpg

Can somebody tell me what model helmet this is? It looks like an HJC FS-15 (http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/1/38/16852/ITEM/HJC-FS-15-Solid-Helmet.aspx) but I want to be sure since the area under the visor release is different. Heh if I'm going to be drawing on it with a sharpie I want to make sure I can wash it off afterward. I'm guessing it's the matte white color that I'll be going for?

[cannondalemtb]

maybe
what lid do you have? I was going to look in the old posts but with 5 pages I figured it would be faster to just ask.

the long and short of it is dependent on your lid, some are replaceable while others are not, any scorpion can be replaced along with most/all icon lids. same with shark, shoei did not make all the pads replaceable and I have no idea about any kbc or hjc

go to your manufactures website and look it up, if parts are listed call any local dealer that caries the brand and order.

the helmet SAVES the man

[dave_xb12r]

My visor saved my life the other day. Golf ball sized rock between my eyes at 75mph. It almost knocked me off my bike. Scary stuff.

[delta one]

did the visor crack at all?

visors are tough stuff, I have been gratefull of mine on several occasions, but never as much as I was when I went down, there is a good gouge in the visor that lines up with my right eye.

I have always wanted a helmet with a face on it

lower jaw as chin bar and upper teeth just above the eye port

something you can do?

PM me some estimates if you would please

[moshaholic2]

just a simple carbon one here. Do wish it had a couple more vents though.

http://www.helmetcity.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/fs15carbon.jpg

[J_Undisputed]

I went with a GMax GM68 for the venting and the Led in the back for visability. I was going to have a Evil looking Pegasus airbrushed on it, but the prices started to get ridiculous with primer/clear coat,etc. So Put the money toward my ride instead and got a little creative with Black reflective vinyl, an exacto knife, an accent from Autozone and my St.Christopher Visor clip from my Jeep.

[J_Undisputed]

Thanks Dr., With most of my gear in black and a black bike I had to do something to be seen. The LED's seemed like a natural choice. The vinyl helps & DOT tape I put on the vest too...Of course in NYC, I don't know if it means people can see you to avoid you or don't have to strain as hard to aim for you.

I just got a dual shield for the helmet. Full Clear Fog Proof Underneath and a half flip down Tint for those sun up /sun down rides. I should probably update the pics...

this is a nice ass lid, great airflow and superior aerodynamics. not that quiet though.

but I still miss my Shark :(

[J_Undisputed]

Love that lid, Delta. Especially the profile shape of the back. Kind of sinister looking. How is it for visability. I would imaging the spun leafed areas reflect a lot of light... as do the silver parts, if the are pearlescent?

[delta one]

yea visibility is good with it both outwards (the eye port is not at wide as the new shoei lids though) and making me more visible with its silver areas, but no pearlecent on this one, just my shoei and Sarah's scorpion

and I decided to take my own pictures too :)

that RSD one is sick!

[xtremelow]

that RSD one is sick!

Thanks, I was leaning towards the helmet you style your art after but the price was simply to high as the RSD Helmets are on sale and the Cerwinskie's aren't (still $600, compared to the RSD for $200, even though it is the same helmet just different graphic).

Here is the one I thought of.
http://stores.sportbiketrackgear.com/images/InitialSet/bell_star_cerwinski_white_right_LG.jpg

Styled after this:
http://stores.sportbiketrackgear.com/images/InitialSet/bell_star_cerwinski_lambo_LG.jpg

[delta one]

That Cerwinskie carbon looks amazing, it's the same graphic but instead of black it's clear revealing the carbon fiber weave of the helmet.

Bell had some teething issues with the star line, mine is 1 size off and has a raised edge of EPS that hasn't worn down all the way yet and it gives me a headache. The ridge it right in line with the corner of your eye if you were to draw a line straight back across the top of your head. This was further Exentuated with a seam from the cheek pad.
These are common complaints with the first gen lids.

The second gen (to include X's C-note) solved 99% of the complaints and changed the headshape to in intermediate oval from whatever they had before. The sizing was correctly done this time too. They fixed the EPS pressure points as well as the cheekpad seam but apparently still had some issues with the speaker cavities (if you dont use speakers you will never know) and fixed it for the third, but it was released just as snell released new requirements for 2010 so the second gen is still snell 2005

The third gen should be flawless and was necessary to update to the new snell rating anyway, I havent seen any new specs or reviews for the new star but to accommodate the new snell 2010 it will most likely be a but heavier than it's previous incarnations.

[xtremelow]

the carbon looks amazing, it's the same graphic but instead of black it's clear revealing the carbon fiber weave

Seen that too but at the same time it is $649, another $50[smirk]

Here is the Carbon

[delta one]

see now that's a pantie dropper right there!
if that lid cant get you women I don't know what will :D

oh yea; X, your lid should have a magnetic catch for the end of the strap too! unless that was just for the third gen lids
let us know but I am betting it is bad ass, no more snaps of buckles to keep the end of the strap from flopping around.

and mine has square D rings that are a little difficult, I think I remember reading that they went to a more traditional D-ring latter on but can you confirm or falsify that for me when yours arrives?
I'm not sure what generation if any got that update.

[xtremelow]

Mine wont have the magnet since the RSD is actually a 2009 model year lid not a 2010 when they implemented the magnetic snap. Not to worried as I always tuck my strap up under my ear anyway since I hate having the hoop under my chin. I wish it had the quick disconnect like my Osbe...

[xtremelow]

Need to make room for one more helmet in the closet until my bike is fixed as I looked out in the garage before I headed out to work and boom there it was, had to cut it open and take a peek before I left for work.

Helmet is simply awesome! Fits like a dream, feels like a quality helmet (unlike some other pricey helmets... Icon, cough cough), and has a ton of function-able qualities.

But be careful because mine is starting to flake [confused]

And I didn't realize that bag was ogio, I take it that it's more than just a sack as it looks.
I know that my bell came with the best helmet bag I have ever seen (they even included a spare visor pouch that velcroes in!) so yours has got to be even better, with a names like ogio Roland sands and bell all in one I think you have the best buy lid of the year.

[xtremelow]

Yeah the bag is a little more than a potato sack. It is made of leather, and has a heavy fleece lining. I would have rather gotten the Bell Helmet bag you are talking about, but I probably wouldn't have used it any more than the potato sack anyway :D

[alwaysabuell22]

At first when that Bell helmet came out, I wasn't sure if i really liked it but now seeing it in your pictures I really am liking that helmet xtreme. Did you get the same size that you wear for your other helmets or did you have to go up or go down in size?

[xtremelow]

I have a HJC also. it is my size, thought if fit me well , Now that I have the Arai , I see how bad the HJC really did fit my head. it is worth sending the money for a good helmet.

Fishgutz: Nice top! Shark wearers unite! :D

LMAO! XtremeLow I'm going to put mine on in solidarity!

My Icon Airframe Seventh Seal :D Got the helmet before i got the bike cause i was riding my brother's bike. It turned out to match my bike really well. Ohh, and it fit my head much better than a few Shoei helmets i tried.

Thanks - I think I copycatted that idea from someone here too. I guess that makes you a double copy-cater.

I wouldn't mind it if I had blue on my bike, but I don't... And I got a great deal on these. $29.

Looks like the new Z1R (Venom?), but way cooler. Is it?
Very nice! [up]

[xtremelow]

Good call[up], not the venom but rather the New Z1R Helmet: Jackal Pandora - $200

[MSinner]

That helmet looks great Acidbath. Heres my brain bucket.

my current helmet.

[acidbath]

yes it is the new z1r and i will tell you it's a nice helmet but the pics really don;t do it justice.looks a lot better in person.

[jasonxb9]

I got my new suomy dark city a little while ago when they were on sale at kneedraggers. I don't have any pics yet, I had to store it away otherwise I would get depressed while I am unable to ride due to weather!! lol

[nativeXb12Rbuell]

I like your bucket O' brains , oh I mean your brain bucket, MSinner , which Arai is that? got a link for it.[up] that may get put on my list of more gear and extra helmet!



stang65pony your helmet reminds me of Mad Max bikers. [up]

[Loki]

I just picked this bad boy up today for 350! Brand new, close out at a store. O my god is it comfy and quite. Arai Vector

Coming from a EXO 700, this thing is heaven. The 700 was so loud, not as loud as my old hjc but still loud. This Arai is a orgasm for my head!

[MSinner]

Hey NativeXb12rbuell, got the helmet at ridersdiscount.com it's an ARAI CORSAIR-V . Best helmet i've ever owned. well worth the cash.

[MSinner]

Hey Loki nice lid, can't beat the Arai helmets.:D

Anyone know where in the US i could try this on, or even something similar in sizing/comfort like the bandits made my simpson.

Looking to upgrade from my scorpion exo700 but don't want to drop 400$ on something that doesn't fit comfortably

[RDuncan]

xtremelow- That reminds me of when I was a kid and at the start city league football season would wear my gear helmet and pads around the house. Mom made me take it off for dinner.

I had one of the 1st gen. ZR1 helments and they were cheap in quality and price(79.00) But the new ones like the one above have came a long way. Fit a lot better and pads seem to keep their fit from what I hear.

[Paloma1974]

You have excellent taste Jammer, I got the same one.

[BeDaring08]

I have bandit and it fits true to size. Just measure your head and look at there size chart. I bought mine at a local hotrod shop and if it didnt fit they said they would exchange it for no charge :)

[12R_FIRE]

thanks, hopefully I'll have a new brain bucket in the near future then

[hdstn]

Mr delivery guy should be dropping this off tomorrow or Thursday:Dhttp://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/7318_20110329135928_L.jpg

[Loki]

That looks like it could ALMOST pass as a stig helmet :D

[brandan86]

Nice choice. I eventually want to get a full face flip up helmet.

[Xb12sLt]

I know this sounds stupid...but, I got this helmet from a buddy for my 13 year old daughter. She was told if she holds all a's for the year she can go on a ride. Looks like she's gonna make it, so it's time to start gearing her up. It's an agv spectre r1...if it's junk I'll toss it and get her a better one. I want her to be safe so please start giving opinions. Thanks :)

http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/7669_20110331142811_L.jpg

[hdstn]

^^If it fits and hasn't been dropped I don't see an issue. Major props for giving her incentive to do well and gearing her up[up][up]

@ loki...I'm not quite sure how to take that lol

[firebolt020283]

hdstn I think it is one of the coolest looking modular helmets i have seen.

[03Firebolt9R]

@ hdstn, I was looking at those Revolvers cuz they look cool but I couldnt bring myself to get a modular. So, I got a Star instead. It is an amazing helmet.

[J_Undisputed]

Hdstn, I was looking at the revolver, good prices and of the same styling as the bell star. I decided to hold off because of the lack of the chin curtain. After you try it out, can you drop us a few lines on what the noise is like inside?

[hdstn]

I love the way it looks...too bad I gotta wait since they didn't actually HAVE them yet?!!?[mad] Long story, lotta bitching, cancelled order and went elsewhere.

@J_Undisputed...I read that on the webbike review as well. I'm interested as well to see how that plays but a normal curtain would interfere with popping the front open as the button is in the middle of the chin bar at the bottom.

@03Firebolt9R...I felt the same but it has too much that I like and wicked styling not too but that star is pretty slick, nice lid[up]
