The Shoei RF-1000

[luna_mahican]

For a biker looking for that one helmet that performs almost without a glitch from the moment it is tried on, the Shoei RF-1000 must definitely be given a glance or two.  In the heavy competition among the different helment brand names, the RF-1000 has the capacity to part the crowd and make an entrance.  The most recent upgrade of the extremely popular RF series, and a complete overhaul of the RF-900, the RF-1000 provides enough edge to bump the competition aside.

Shoei puts out the RF-1000 in the market armed with features such as:

• an aerodynamic shell design that significantly boosts rider performance
• an excellent anti-fog system
• a 3D interior liner that provides incredible comfort
• an Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus (AIM+) for a comfortable, lightweight, and yet rigid outer shell
• scratch-resistant coating and protection from UV rays
  

Another feature the RF-1000 may be proud of is its successful attempt to lessen the noise when riding.  Compared to most helmets, this model is significantly quieter, making possible a more comfortable and enjoyable ride. 

Shoei has hit the bullseye with the RF-1000, and considering the quality of performance it can give, there is no denying that it is priced reasonably.

Pros:  much quieter than other helmets, very comfortable, effective anti-fog system, very good ventilation, impressive design

Cons: slightly heavier than most helmets

Rating: 4.5/5
