Why do current designs suck?

It's a good one and I believe only 250 were made.


The Lawson is Old School Cool

 

Yeah, I have one too, the Servo model. Decent helmet, but not near the quality of helmet as a top of the line Shoei or Arai.

 

I had one of those. Design looked awesome.

But in general i do think designs are weaker than a few years ago.

Rossi usually has cool replicas.

 

This...
or this?

 

Always loved that particular Lawson scheme.

 

I was also disappointed with current designs.

Now, I wrap my helmets with a custom design. I get my own design on the helmet and have actually figured out how to get it all done cheaper than "normal" retail.

1. Shop in the EU for race helmet.
2. Look for the replica helmets and find whoever is not popular right now.
3. Buy their helmet at a steep discount.
4. Have the helmet wrapped (vinyl wrap) with your design.

I can usually find AGV Corsa helmets at around $400.00. The wrap costs me $300.00 on top of the helmet cost.

Now my helmet matches my bike

 

my favs...

 

Do you know if the visors from the X-12 will fit?

 

Always liked my Chandler Kawi helmet.

 

No clue, sorry. I wore Arai for years so the X-14 was my first Shoei in a while.

 

I could never get a shoei to fit. Arai was great but Suomy ruled for me. Too bad they crapped the bed, at least in the US market.

 

Chaz always wears crazy lids that are reminiscent of the old Suomy days.

 

Same but Suomy is still around and I still wear them. They're my favorite.

No, the x-12 uses the cw-1 shield and the x-14 uses the cwr-1.

 

Makes sense. I couldn't wear Arai until they came out with the medium oval shells. Suomy was too round for me also.

 

Okay. I thought I heard they would on a review vid...was wondering if the R designation meant it was ready for tear-offs.

 

Swenson paints my helmets and they are badass.

 

My favorite helmet design was the Nakano replica because the big eyeballs are funny to me.

 

Best helmet EVAR!1!!11!!

 

Ok. That shits funny.
