Pic's of My New Lid (Suomy Spec 1-R Extreme)

[blue tiger]

I feel kind of silly for buying this since I could add 25 bucks and get that G 20 I've had my eye on. Meh...It was a fair deal and I've always wanted a good helmet. The last lid I bought was about 140 bucks so you get an idea how much I'm upgrading. Anyway I liked the color's on the Bostrom replica so without further ado....











It fits great and is very light, I'm worried that when I cut my hair (it's really long) that it will loosen up a bit. It's pretty snug though so I'm not THAT worried if you know what I mean.

And because I can't help it there's this beauty that I will be on while wearing it. It's getting a wheel fixed at the shop but when it get's home. WOOOOOOOT !!!

Sweet helmet!  I just picked up a Suomy myself this weekend and really like it.  I too upgraded from a $150 helmet 

Here is a pic of the one I got:



I just ordered a Gold Iridium shield as well.

i think you are going to love that helemt. The visor doesn't fog, and it works perfectly at night.

Its kinda noisy but its an amazing lid and I will never buy anything else but that brand.

I have too many Helmets,  but I decided to instead of buying another Arai or Shoei I bought a Suomy Troy Bayliss Replica . I like the helmet very much and got it for an extremely good price at SandHills Motorsports. Less than $280 bucks. I'm not convinced that it is as good as a RX7 or X-11 yet.
