I'm not dogg'n on HJC helmets as I have one in the garage as a beater, but what sucks about them is that they are HEAVY. Comparing my Arai to my HJC, my Arai is literally about 1 - 1.5 lbs lighter, there is a huge difference in weight and you have to take that weight in consideration of a high side accident. On a high side you are thrown from the bike, so all of that weight turns into force which pulls your upper body thus having the chance of causing more bodily damage. That helmet will do great for learning the bike, but as you start riding harder and harder...seriously take this into consideration.

agreed,I've owned a couple HJC'c and my wife and son have then still. I love my Shoei. I'll never buy cheaper helmet again- fit's great, lighter and wind noise is almost gone.

bottom line on the helmet issue guys... do you have a $40 head or a $400 head? you really cant put a price on safety! :friends:

AMEN my brutha...but the problem is that most riders don't realize how much better an expensive helmet is, till they go down and realize that some of the injury could have been avoided by buying quality gear :drinks:
