i used to want the kbc racer1 when i 1st started riding cus it looked like the arai's n arai was outta budget n the racer1 just didnt feel right but dam that black arai is clean.

i rock a kbc vr-1 euro now for kicks, great fit, removable lining and that good d.o.t and snell rating.

I rock a Shoei Norick Abe replica red and blue for the streets. I rock a Rockhard Hustler in the lots. And I have the matching Hustler helmet for dirt also.

Re: whats your weapon of choice for helmets

arai makes the best helmet out there. They always have. I had an rx7 as my first helmet in 2000.

But to the best of my knowledge they have never sponsored any pro stuntrider ever. Someone correct me if I am wrong I think that's weak of them. So I would never buy another. I like shoei now

Thats kinda stupid, unless you know for a fact someone made a proposal and was shot down by Arai....How can you blame them for not sponsoring anyone, if no one has put forth a proper proposal?

Now if people have tired (with a proper professional looking proposal) and been shot down, then I can understand you feelin that way about the company...

Re: whats your weapon of choice for helmets

I have just always assumed that someone must of hit them up and got shot down because I don't remember hearing they sponsored anyone thats all.
They still make the best helmets
