Arai - Ducati RXV Carbon Helmet

Limited Edition, 6 month wait. Billed as the only pure carbon fiber helmet in existence, hand made.

This is the USA Edition (complete with DOT sticker).

Extremely light, work of art and worth the wait.

That's it, my dream helmet! It's beautiful but I can't justify 3000-5000 on a helmet I will ruin at some point.

I only rock Arai, they fit me perfectly, frost black Corsair V, only helmet I'll ever wear on the street. Had the Ducati ones but colour isn't my thing.

I'm an Arai guy through and through with a Corsair V and RX-Q, but while perusing the SHARP site recently, it seems they only get 3 stars due to poor side impact results.

Might try my hand at one of the higher end AGV's for my next go.

If I sold my FE450 Husaberg, I could buy either gold magnesium wheels or the Arai Carbon. What a choice. I love that ducati Arai carbon.
 
REEVU FOR THE STREET, ARAI FOR THE TRACK, SUOMY SAVED MY HEAD DURING A 1000' SLIDE DOWN THE HIGHWAY, AND SHOEI WAS MY FIRST "DESIGNER" HELMET

Just got my Shoei X14 in today. Typical Shoei quality and build. Normal Shoei sizing. I've had an medium X11 for years and the X14 in medium is identical.

The graphics look very sharp and modern. For those of you worried about the huge wing, it looks normal in person. As usual, pictures don't do it justice. It is a really sharp looking helmet, IMO.

I won't be able to test it for 6 months as I'm out of country until October, but I think it will live up to Shoei's claims. I'm very impressed and satisfied with it and look forward to putting it through its paces this fall.

Here's the X11 that I replaced with the X14. I really like it but it's about 10 years old so it was time to replace it with something new.

And this is my Arai that is retired now. Once again, it's about 10 years old so it will sit on the shelf for awhile. I like Arais a lot but they just don't fit me as good as Shoeis do. I think the X14 will be with me for awhile.

Been rocking a Scorpion EXO-700 for the past 2 years, but just picked up a Shoei RF-1200 Vessel.

So much lighter than my old Scorpion.

Just ordered the x802RR Sepang version to replace my RF1200.

Yes!

AGV Pista GP R Iannone.

Stumbled across this on championhelmets. I don't own it but figured it was post worthy.
