    Helmet Debate....Arai vs Shoei

    Thanks for that info. Unfortunately it's the same thing that was there last year. I'm not talking about the ECE or dot rating. Most 89.00 helmets carry those. I'm talking about numbers on how much energy is transferred to your brain during a crash. Like 6d for example. Shows you that there...

    Helmet Debate....Arai vs Shoei

    No. It was last year when I bought the 2 helmets. I was trying to find some info to compare safety of all 3. Like I said. I would love to see more info. What makes their helmet the best. Other than what's on the data sheet.

    Helmet Debate....Arai vs Shoei

    I wouldn't buy the Airoh based on their lack of any safety information. Anywhere. I looked on the website. All it says on the tech sheet is "maximum safety". "Maximum comfort". Well then I guess if it says maximum then sign me up. I figured I would call the company and speak with somebody there...

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    I'm pretty sure last time I was at kames they had a plain white shoei xs for under 350? And as far as Rocky Mountain goes. That's where I usually buy gear for the 2 of us and parts for the bikes. I'm pretty sure they send them out to a lot of people. It's literally tucked in at the bottom of...

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    I don't think so? But it seems every few orders I place there they include a 10% off code at the bottom of the thank you email. I just noticed it this year but I guess they have been doing it for a while.

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    My boy wears a plain white shoei. You can find them for 350.00 if you look. Use your rmatv 10% code and save even more. I don't care what it looks like. He is happy as well.

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    When my son was on a pw/crf we ran fly helmets, Boots , neck roll and a chest protector. Few hundred bucks got us started. As they go faster and grow you upgrade. If you ask around I would be willing to bet people have left over gear in good condition they will part with.

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    How much you think he gets paid to wear that helmet? Hahaha. If the price is right I bet he would wear that watermelon from the previous post. Anyways. I'm sure their great. And I would probably own one if there was a little more supporting how great they are.

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    Would love to see it or hear it. I really wanted to buy one. But it was hard based on looks and how "light" it was. "Maximum safety" idk. Guess I expected more out of the technical data sheet from airoh!

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    On a different note. Airoh was the one company you can't find any data on in regards to what technology or safety standards they pride themselves on. I called the company. Emailed the manufactures and searched the Internet. All I could find is how cool they were. How light they were. And how...

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    My son is 11. And weighs about 80#. I have owned a shoei vfx-w and currently own a 6d. I purchased a 6d for my son as well but it didn't fit his head at all! The shoei fits like a glove. And I will be honest. Maybe it's just my head as well. But I'm not to happy with the fit of the 6d myself...

    Question to fathers out there about helmets for kids

    Stay away from anything left over that is rated snell 2005 and maybe even 2007. The outer shell was so hard during low speed crashes it transferred all the energy to your head!!! The snell 2010 is more in line with the ece certification from Europe. I did a lot of research on this after my...

    CRA Summit Indoor MX Jan. 8,9,10

    I am really on the fence with these temps.... Really want to make the trip but MX racing when its 20 degrees indoors is rough. How warm...... or cold do you think its going to be inside for practice? And for the race days???? I assume at this point the track is built and you have an idea?

    CRA Summit Indoor MX Jan. 8,9,10

    When you say noticeably are you talking same temp it is outside? Also I know last year for staging everyone was outside. May want to rethink that as well. 16 degrees is cold. No matter how you dress.
