Is Shoei X11 also X Spirit?

I'm looking at a new helmet and interested in this helmet. In the UK we have the X Spirit, which costs around £500, yes $900 !

Anyone know if this is the same as the X11 sold in the US at much lower prices, shipping included?

That just makes my head hurt thinking about spending $900 on a helmet. I think about all of the aftermarket products that could be bought with that kind of cash.

Sorry, I do not know the answer to your question.

Everything is expensive here: land prices, exchange rate. sales tax @ 17.5% .

Good to earn in £, but happy to help reduce the ginormous size of the US trade deficit by shipping a helmet here .

Lots of .orgers have given good write-ups of the X11, just want to make sure before I place the order having tried on a UK spec X Spirit.
