Well not really, I'm just going to buy the one I want anyway, but which of these would you buy?

It's going to be a Shoei (best fit) X-Spirit 2 (the little flap on the back of the XR1100 kept catching on my leathers on track).

But which colour scheme? That's all I'm interested in btw, not a lecture on cost or why Arai / AGV / Shark etc are better. The SHARP tests can go fk themselves as well

Here's the link to Shoei's website for the choices

BAUTISTA or VERMEULEN5 for me.

I've just got myself a XR1100 and think it's fab, don't have leathers but I can see the little plastic lip at the back could catch. Anywho, I do like the look of the Reverb TC-2, very patriotic but not overly garish. The only other options would be the white or matt black versions or waiting till Shoei do some more reps in that model.

La Seca TC-4 gets my vote, with the Reverb TC-2 a close second.

Agree. That's really nice.

That's the one I want, although I think it could be a bit bland. I also like the one with the Union Flag, although I'd like it without the flag. Before anyone comment son the trackbike that will be a whole different colour soon too.

I'd go for one of the solid colours, white, black or matt black. I'm not a fan of fancy graphics.. (My XR-1000 is grey...)

If you were forcing me at gunpoint to choose an actual design, it'd be the La Seca TC-2 - nice and simple, and it's a patriotic red white and blue.

A what helmet thread..........you tosser

I think they are all let down by the giant Shoei stickers TBH. I just brought a Shoei helmet, why do I need to be reminded of this? and its not like its a race helmet for TV. Also are people are going to see me - mr jo bloggs wearing it and think I must buy a Shoei helmet.

The giant Shoei stickers really do ruin the lines of all the designs IMO, and its on both sides and right on the front, over branded.
