I'll play. Arai XD for the dual sport, Shoei RF1200 to match the CBX, and Shoei GT Air for everything else. |

Z, love the CBX Shoei.
Any chance you did that yourself?
I have a KBC that sort of matches the CBX.
Bought it about 4? years ago and just started using it.

Yes, I did. It was a standard solid color for the RF1100, to which I added the black stripe and gold & orange pinstripes. I used some vinyl sign material. The red is not an exact match for the CBX's Candy Glory Red paint, but its close enough. It has held up well for the past 5 years.
Love the Pipemasters and the spoke wheels by the way. |

Well, it's a slow day.....here are mine, HJC Cyclone and a Zox whatever, both cheap DOT rated helmets. I'll be buying something better that's Snell rated. I bought the Zox as a novelty since I smoke - don't have to pull it off to light up.....the easier to get lung cancer with. |

Bored at work so here you go lol. All HJC, left to right; CL15 Dragon. My all time favorite design on a helmet. Almost painted my 700 ES to match. Just got this one off ebay in like new condition. CL16 Voltage. My everyday helmet. Got a helluva deal on a pair of them for me and the wife after someone posted here about a sale. The newest one is a CL17 Omni. Snell 2015 rated to comply with AHRMA's helmet reg change this year. Excellent fit and aerodynamics. As I wear all of these which are the last 3 variations of HJC's CL series I can see and feel a huge difference between the CL17 and the other 2. Great helmet.
I went to HJC about 10 years ago. I had a Shoei but it gave me headaches I guess from the fit. I tried a Nolan but didn't like it. I saw the Dragon and figured what the hell. Liked it from the get go but I used to buy helmets that were a size too big from my experience with the Shoei. Then I learned that helmets are supposed to fit tight lol (as Jenny Mccarthy says in 2 and a Half Men "Tight is good."). The last 3 HJC's (pictured) are the correct size (Lg. and they fit very snug) and no headaches.

Here are mine. The green one is a brand called "XL." I don't think they're in business anymore. I bought it to race my Mustang. Snell and Dot.
I usually wear one or the other of the Bell helmets.
