[QUOTE="Happytrails63, post: 1288489, member: 87161"] Nice looking helmets you have there. Have been riding in an Arai RX-Q for awhile and recently added a Shoei Neotec Imminent so I can relate sorta. Have never tried an RF1200 and dont think it would fit my head. Both helmets being pretty premium they do feel good. My Arai is about 2 1/2yrs old already but is it great shape. It feels like a hand crafted helmet. I rarely switch visors so hasn't been a sticking point with me. Just keep a dark smoke one on. The Shoei I'm still getting to know. Cheek pads are a bit snug but figuring they will break in. Haven't gotten around to putting a Sena in it yet. Like you I opted for the Hi-Vis version but the Imminent graphic isn't that super Hi-Vis. I dont usually buy black helmets but with a Hi-Vis pattern its about the only option. See you have several Hi-Vis jackets to go along with your helmets! How do you like those iridium visors? Didn't know they made gold ones for Arai's and Shoei's. Did you have to order them from Japan? Read something about Shoei not importing visors to the US for some reason.
