the biggest thing with helmet is fit, if you can try and wear one for 30-45 mins or so in store (takes a while to notice the pressure points). a good fit will help spread out the force better in the event of a crash (knock on wood) and will help to not distract you.
shoei and arai have very different fits, the hjc fs-15 fits pretty similar to an rf-1000 and x-eleven, whereas the hjc cl-15 fits more like an arai quantum II (i think thats the one it fit like)?
