Shoei X-11

RE: Shoei X-11
I have used my Shoei X-11 to the fullest. I have riden it on the track and on the street. I also have had a pretty bad accident while wearing my X-11. It held up great. I landed mostly on my body, but I hit hard on my right front of the helmet. I had a replacement tinted visor. The visor didn't brake off or anything, even though the impact was right on the visor. I did have the rear spoiler come off. But over all I loved the fact the helmet did it's job. I will buy one again.
P.S. I will get some pic's of it on here soon

RE: Shoei X-11
Well, I finally ordered the X-11 and received it last week. This helmet is awesome!! The venting of the helmet surpassed my expectations. I can actually feel the air flowing on my forehead and on top of my head. On a cool night when I was riding, I had to close the top vents because my head was getting cold.
The other thing I noticed while riding was that my head wasn't being buffeted around by the wind. This helmet keeps you head stable. The only time that the helmet will bounce around from the wind is when you are behind a semi-truck.
Also, this helmet is very light. I took a 4 hour ride and usually my neck and upper shoulders would be a little sore when wearing the HJC AC-11, but this was not the case with the X-11.
There is, however, one concern that I have with the helmet... for some reason there is a pressure point on the area right in from of my right ear. Which after awhile, becomes painful to turn my head to the left or right. I don't know if this will go away after the helmet gets broke in more or not. But the funny thing is that this pressure point isn't on the left side. Has anyone else had this experience? If so, was there anything that you did to correct it or did it just eventually go away?
Overall a great helmet, and going forward I don't see myself buying in other kind of helmet other than a Shoei.
