If you want a new lid, there's about fifty brand new Shoei X-11's on sale for TZ-R prices...as in $349, down from $623. I've never dealt with the seller before, but it looks legit. Feedback is 100% on 46, and a handful of auctions end today, but there's days of them left. No solids, just replicas and graphics versions. Seems like a great chance to get a top-shelf helmet, so I'm putting it up in OT, since no one goes into Riding Gear (except me, FFCBRF4i, Skical, and PG ).

I can, however, vouch for the superfantasticawesomehappygoodness that an X-11 brings to your head. I love it, and I'm a dyed-in-the-cheek-pad Arai guy.

Once again, I am in no way affiliated with the seller...this is just a public service announcement to increase the level of comfort and/or protection for those who want it.

Thanks for the heads up - I'm also an Arai guy, but have been told the Shoei x11 is a fantastic helmet. A steal at that price !!

 

Is there a damn helmet-buying convention I didn't know about... ?

It is a good time to buy gear though, lots of clearance prices for the 2007 stuff.
