Hey Rich,
I was looking at Arai and Shoei lids too . The AGV ad caught my eye and
I tried one. They are GREAT.I ride without a windshield and The wind
buffeting is near zero.The helmet is a triple composite of lightweight
construction. They are made in Italy and the finish is first rate.
I got a deal on one from their website. You may want to get a size
larger than usual as they do come out a bit on the small side.

Christmas. My old Shoei is probably 15 years old (yea, I know but I've
got
about 4 of them that old). Anyway I don't keep up on things like what is

current in the helmet world, so I'll ask you guys. Anyone have a
favorite at
the moment? I like the idea of the Nolan with the flip up chinguard so I

don't need to take my glasses off to get it on and off. Just need your
basic
solid black no thrills well fitting helmet. I tried a couple of Arai on
today
and Quantum and Signet and they felt pretty good. But any experiences
with
wind noise, fit and such would be helpful
Thanks for any kind of response,
Rich
