Anyone have any experience with this helmet/manufacturer? I am thinking of getting this helmet for the upcoming season.

Welcome. Suomy makes some of the lightest and best helmets on the market. I have one and I love it. You won't be disappointed.

I currently own a Shoei RF 1000. How does the Suomy compare to that. Also i have been hear that the Suomy helmets are very loud if you are riding over 70mph.

It fits my head very well. I tried it on at a local shop but they do not let you take the helmet for a test ride.

O and thanx for directing me to the new forum.

yeah good idea... though the only shop that would ever let me "test ride" any gear was in AK... all the cali shops looked at me like I was fuck'n insane!

Suomy and Shoei are on the same level of quality- really, really good. Little different headshape.
