Looks good mang!

I know I'm really digging my new RF1K!  New helmets are the best after wearing a skanky 5 yr old one that you've alternately frozen, sweated, sweated, gotten rained on, etc etc for all of those 5 yrs.

yeah, they pretty much had all the types (arai, shoei, kbc, etc...) the suomy fit the best. it was on sale b/c it's last years' model, i know this brand is $$$  :o

back in the old days there was this one helmet brand slogan - "If you have a $10 head, wear a $10 helmet"

can you name the brand? (you young kids might not know this...)

A good price always makes it more attractive.
I would wear it on the track. Might wear it on the street. I do not care about matching gear.
