    I think it was RRW and about 5 or 6 years back.

    But you don't need to worry, you don't go fast enough to booboo your knee much less pull the strap off a helmet.

    While not a huge MM93 fan, I got a good deal on an RF1200 Indy design. I like it. I'm not so concerned with design, however. My all time favorite lid was my X-Tec Akira Yanagawa, because it had a shark on it. And sharks are cool. Really cool. Just saying.

    SA, why wouldn't you wear a Shark then? They have Shark in their name, their logo has a shark in it and they had some cool ass designs. :D

    This one stayed on my head. As for my neck, my C7 vertebra was fractured, leading to my nickname

    Forget designs, whats going on with prices? I see $800-$1000 helmets these days. Insanity.

    So far the best helmet I've ever owned is my current X-14.

    I was content, but thanks to this f#cktarded thread I just learned that there's a Rainey replica, which is now on it's way to my house. Thanks assholes.

    FACk! Just what I need, a new helmet...2012-03-28.
    Every five years we have to like a new one. :rolleyes:
    I don't mind a new helmet, but I gotta make a choice on graphics? I like the graphics I have...Shoei Bautista! :D
