Holy shit!! I thought the Arai Corsair I was looking at was expensive at $800. Really liked it, but just can't get myself to part with that much cash.

This. Looks cheap and shitty.

Don't like Arai's and don't like the stigma of "the more money spent, the 'better' the helmet is".

I like the people who buy different style helmets and eventually buy the top of the line helmet and basically have no clue about fitment. They just go for the name brand and best line because it looks cool instead of finding a helmet that fits your head shape properly. They crack me up.

No fucking way. Tally is right, too. Besides, I like the flashy graphics on my Suomy.

I like the look of the large weave carbon but I can think of lots better ways to burn through $4k.
