They fall in the same spectrum. The signet q is at the opposite end from the x11. The sing net q fit me better around the back of my head. Open that link I posted. It gives you every helemts shape and where at in the spectrum.

Darn you Bardahl...after reading your original post I started looking at helmets, thought maybe I would get something with some cool graphics. I'm real happy with my Bell, but not crazy about there graphics. So anyway I came across this Arai Disalvo lid, I think It's cool and I'm seriously thinking about dropping the coin on it and it's all your damn fault.[img]

That's a sweet helmet. Broke my heart when I found out it didn't fit my head shape.

Once you go Arai, you will NEVER look elsewhere. Trust me. Here in Canada I paid 1300 can denaro for mine. At the point of purchase no one in Canada had it! I know, I'm crazy and you know what, I think you are right!

The sticker, the green shamrock with the skull, was a personal add, it ties the white helmet in with the bike and jacket which is white, green and black! My boy has one too.
I bought the helmet in 2010, I will need to replace it 2015...So two more years before I start shopping again!

WFO.sorry......( :

CBlast did the same to me when I saw his new Muzzys....I plan on replacing the stock pipes the day my new bike gets in and will have the Muzzys waiting in the garage.

I ended up with a gloss white GT Air in large. I am at the top end of the large range in Shoei, and it is a bit snug but it seems like its gonna break in fine. I rode my brothers Fatboy around yesterday with the new lid and it is pretty quiet. I did not get a chance to get up to highway speeds and check out the ventilation, but Im pretty happy with it so far. I love the drop down sun screen. Fit and finish is stellar. I paid right at 500.00 from Revzilla. I cant say enough good things about them. I called twice to talk about helmets with them and they were very amiable, very CS oriented.

If you get fitted correctly in an Arai helmet you dont even know you have it on its so comfortable. I love mine!



To much to list!

If you are looking for a light helmet, this lid is amazing! A medium only weighs 1140g! It is so light that it feels like you are wearing no helmet at all... and it has that cool carbon fiber look! Fit is similar to a Shoei.
