Default Are KBC helmets any good?

Just curious if KBC helmets are nice at all. I currently have an Scorpion EXO 400 cheapie lid but fits my dome pretty nicely, however, there is some wind noise that bothers me if I think about it. I just ordered this http://www.ridegear.com/rg/item/F-52...uo-Helmet.htmlfor $71.95 shipped with the extra 25% off, figured it's worth at least that much. Who has a similar dome and do you like it? Thx.

From my experience, KBC helmets are decent. Just remember, you get what you pay for. Scorpions are nice helmets, too

I like the style of the KBC, but they don't fit my head too well. I do love my Scorpion helmets though.

I have a KBC TK-77 and I love it. Only complaint is tools are required for shield change, my model anyways.

only thing I didnt like about my KBC is it is noisy. But you get what you pay for. the VR-2 is a step up from my Force RR tho.

N rrassco I have a OLD TK-7s too lol
