Wow, so few Arai (Arais?) ..... mmmmm what's the plural for Arai? Got three or four, one unused now as it's ancient, an original RX7RR custom painted by Dream Machine in the UK back in 1993 I reckon. Now you get to know my real name!

I'm still wearing my Bell Qualifier DLX however fancy a change and going to look at some Simpson helmets on Friday.
Anyone got one and whats their thoughts?

I have a Simpson, it is quite old now, and feels heavy and cheap and noisy. Looks cool AF though. Am sure their newer lids are better quality (I hope)
Right now I'm sporting the Biltwell Lanesplitter in bronze metallic with a gold lens. Took like 2-3 weeks to break in, it was real tight around my jaw but its just snug enough to be comfortable now. I will say for motovlogging...its probably the best, there's 3 vents right in the mouth area that are not closable. You pick up alot of engine noise but surprisingly not alot of wind. So far I'm pretty happy with it for commuting.
I have been thinking about getting one of these. I currently have the Gringo 2 DOT. I am also looking at the new Gringo S ECE lids. Biltwell's fit my head so much better than other brands.
I have a Nexx XD1 that i customized with green stickers

Scorpion EXO AT950, Modular, Loud, Heavy, but a decent price, the visor is removable, there's built in sunglasses that drop down, and it's modular lol
Very interested in a modular. Great concept. Seriously thinking on getting one next up.
Does anyone here have the new lids from Ruroc? I wonder how they hold up against icon, nexx, scorpion etc.

I have a modular HJC IS that was great till I got my Shoei RF1200. Now everytime I put the HJC on I end up wishing it was the RF or I go back and swap it (don't wear very often for these reasons). The comfort in the Shoei is unmatched by the HJC. If you turn your head it doesn't want to rip off, it is a much tighter fit in the cheeks, and the wind is quieter as it slips right on by. It also has much better venting.
Using the NishuaEnduro Carbon now.
Like it so far
Before i always just the Icon Variant.

Shoei GT-Air for road and track and Wulfsport something or other for greenlaning.
