Not for me but it's not that bad either. The fact that it's an Arai makes it better. :lol:

I don't know what 41 nk means (:scratch:). It's not awful but not my style.

I like the idea of a "loud" lid too to be honest.

This helmet makes no sense. Yes, Noriyuki rides a Ducati and Monza is in Italy, it's still dumb to relate the two. no likey

this is a noriuki haga rep helmet. Those are his initials and race number. Nk141 across the back is his website and unless i missmy guess the numbers over the top are the coordinates to monza

it's not his initials since his last name is Haga and it's actually nki41. It's a shorten Noriyuki.

yes, it was stupid then too. It's like Lorenzo wearing the Captain America stuff at Indy. Actually it's worse since he rides a Yamaha. The dude is spanish, not fucking American.

He said he likes Captain America...do you think he should have worn it in Europe? :lol:

BTW - The Haga helmet is not something I would buy...but not horrible. :idk:

I'm a huge Haga fan, but seeing how sweet all his other lids were I doubt he had much to do with this one...

Umm, have you ever worn a black helmet when it's sunny and over 80 degrees?

I think I'd like it if the 41 wasn't in green. :whistle:

Helmets with only 3 or fewer colors are for old men, IMO

The graphics are fine, but I'm not an Arai fan. Most over rated helmet out there.


They won't get one penny more of my money ever.

QFT!!! I could have just about been an Arai rep I loved them so much! Now I'm rocking the Shark which I like much better for the money! I'm thinking about an AIROH, 4 shell sizes, plenty of features, super light AND not too many people have them yet! Besides, I don't know the noise numbers but with all of those vents, I doubt you'll find a lid that pushes more air!

I love my Arai, but it is only a year old, and the vent on the front will not close.:td:

SLAM !!!

Arai & Racer X = OWN3D

Outdated earpod design, one of the worst visor removal systems, and way overpriced IMO. The only thing above-average about Arais is the liner quality, and maybe the paint.

naw don't need anything really. but my next helmet will be ARAI again despite 'slice's opinion........:lol

prolly the nicky lid, but i won't "need" another 1 for at least 1 more year.

Well my ROOF that Rez sent me was over 6yrs old so I NEEDED one...plus the wife didn't want the Noland that came with the RT (he GAVE me a new com helmet that his daughter wore like 3 times) because someone ELSE's head had been in it....despite me removing the liner and washing the hell out of it :idk: so when I saw the Suomy deal.....:rockwoot:

This thread reminds me that I need a new helmet. Now that the season is over for me I'm going to wait and see if there are any deals at the bike shows.

I have a terrible time finding helmets that fit my head. :?:

Only two brands to ever fit have been HJC and Icon. I've only owned HJC's. That's why I'm waiting for the bike show....lots of sizes/brands to try on.

I wouldn't count on it. The bike shows haven't had deals for years.:td:

Our bike show sucks for getting anything good.... at least of the brands I'm looking for.
