Sweet helmet.

I hope it doesn't turn you into a wildman, like Kagayama.

I had to Order it from Japan, they are not available in North America, plus they cost allot less in Japan than here in Canada.

Sweet sweet looking helmet. My only reservation in the look are those gigantic SHOEI logos on the sides and front. Are they removable decals or part of the paint job? They really disrupt the lines of the artwork IMO.

I agree I am hoping they will come off easily.

For some reason I don't think I can use the one I got to 90% of it potential - I would rather use the other $65,000 and buya 600RR and a DRZ400SM and use the rest toward Track Days, Suspension and Gear

That's such a sharp looking helmet. The new silver and white is quite nice. I've seen the other color scheme and it too is nice looking. It's nice to see some different schemes on the X-Eleven, the ones here are kinda blah.
