i've had my arai astro J for 2 years now which i got for £330 and before that a quantum f which cost me £150.

I can clearly say i am an arai man and i wont wear anything thing else. Great helmets and bloody comfortable!

I left my Arai outside in the rain last night, so today I dragged out my old HJC ZF-8 for the day. My opinion of it has dropped substantially, it feels liek there's no padding in it now. Still got a better visor and vent mechanism than the Arai. Two big vents that work, instead of 5 that don't, and hey're all esy to operate with gloves on (I swear Arai forget the bikers tend to wear gloves)

I've bought an X-Spirit too now, after damaging my XR1000 in my off.

<--- The silver one over there

Ohh so comfy, and the vents really work well, thought the XR1000 was good, but imo the x-spirit is worth the extra money (Plus I could use the visors I already had, a bonus

)
