[QUOTE="hppants, post: 1413474, member: 27852"] John - I've heard your concern before and the GT-air deserves a harder look. The flip down sun shade is attractive, but as you elude, I wear glasses and that has to be considered. Also, I'm told that the shield port is slightly smaller on the RF-1200 than the RF-SR or the GT-Air. I'm not looking to reduce visibility, but the noise gasket for the shield on the RF-1200 is amazing. That helmet HAS to be very quiet. It's my understanding that the GT-Air 2 is set to release soon (only weeks away, I'm told), which may necessitate a pause to examine these new features, and if they are not worth the surely additional cost, then pickup a GT-air (1) left over for a steal. At this point, I know enough to be dangerous. It's time to visit my local Cycle Gear, where the manager there is absolutely excellent. He's a seasoned rider and he knows all kinds of riding. And he knows his products inside and out. He'll match online prices and the truth is - if I walk into that store with my wallet to look at helmets, I'm going to walk out with a box in hand. As such, I'm procrastinating just a smidge.... [/QUOTE]
