For noise levels

I think it all depends on individual as all heads differ slightly from each other. So by using different brands or different models from a same brand will have different results.

 

It all depends on you wear nice fitting helmet or slightly loose one.

e.g. I can either wear S or M for my Arai Mach. Because my forehead measurement is about 55.

 

 

But I prefer Arai to Shoei because Andy Lau wears that in Full Trottle.

My idol.

Life is full of ups and down, I call it roller coaster ride.

When you are going up, you will have all the anticipation of fun and trill and get to see all the nice scenery. But when you sense that it is going down, you will wish it would stay there forever but the thruth is its not possible.

Before you know it, you are on the way down and only thing one can do is

hold on tight to yourself. If cannot take it let it out by shouting.

The higher you went, the longer the sufferings.

But when you are at the bottom already, you will try to think of those nice moments up there again. But at the same time fear the coming down part.

Some things are, we know it yet we still go and try it.

Till the moment we are off the roller coaster on the platform, some people suffer and puke while some are enjoying the process and laughing to their joy.

which model Arai or Shoei u guys using?

top end or entry levels?

hello.

 

im using a Arai Astro J model now...its in the medium range of Arai's FF series.

Its preetty comfy and feels quite light. Abit noisy when speed above 120kmph..but its probably because it is so well-ventilated (wont feel hot in sunny weather). Anyway the noise dun bother me....iz good to be able to hear things around you for safety reasons.

 

One other thing u might have to contend with;

 

Arais have a tendency whereby the bottom rim front rubber lining tends to loose adhesiveness and fall off.

Arai is more suitable for asian but a little bit noisy.
