Much black. Next in the collection is either a Bell Bullitt in Retro Blue, Simpson M30 in Gloss Carbon or a Gloss Black Schuberth SR1. Pretty much whatever comes on sale first
Airoh Aviator (KTM Factory)
AGV Corsa Turtle (other one is gfs)
Arai RX7 Corsair - my first love, saved me in a huge high side last year
Arai XD-4
AGV Pista GP Soleluna
AGV GP Tech - signed by the doctor himself
and 2 other helmets that are stashed away in boxes
3 helmets so far
first one - AGV Corsa Turtle
second one - Simpson Bandit Full CF edition
third one - Arai Profile Sensu
I use the AGV for street/collection because it is my favorite helmet by far
second helmet - got it recently , will be my car track helmet from now on
third helmet - daily+track motorcycle helmet
Mr. Kchan, question! How is that Simpson Bandit for riding? I mucho want but there is nowhere to see/try one on! I hear the eyeports aren't the greatest?

i tried it once.... and theres a LOT of wind noise lol
its super light which is great, but i would not use it for riding again because
1) wind noise
2) scared of damaging that cf

I heard it was meant for automotive road racing and the helmets are designed to be used within a cabin in mind. They will not have as good of a seal around the eye port resulting in wind in your eyes at highway speeds on a motorcycle. For a hooligan helmet in the city you'll have a ball though however, I love the way they're styled. This was coming from my ex colleague who's now over at Honda Center.
Kchan please confirm, but that was his 2 cents. (Old man Ben)

i believe there are different versions of the bandit
some versions have more vent in the mouth earlier (mine doesnt) to help with fogging/defogging
Shoei x12. I had an rf-1100 before but it got wreckt lol. unfortunately this helmet doesnt fit my sena speakers very well. Its also is a lot louder in highway speeds. However, its super light compared to my rf-1100 + keeps my head cooler. i love the art on it and the rear spoiler looks awesome (do i ever really push the need for it? probably not ). I usually wear earplugs on rides now.

The ventilation is going to be much more aggressive on the x12 compared to your 1100. The wind noise and lack of room for speakers is a necessary compromise when you start getting into flagship race helmets . This is Shoei's top of the line designed to be used primarily for one thing.
I love the Daijiro Kato design though, it was recently re-released as a commemoration.
