http://bikechatter.net/ 33-64 http://bikechatter.net/helmets/33-raid2-helmet Don't buy a Raid 2 unless you are already deaf! When I unpacked the helmet I found that the dealer had put a pack of ear plugs in the box, and I was soon to find out why. I was surprised at the noise level at 40 mph, and by the time I reached 70 mph it was like having a thunderstorm around my head. This helmet may be suitable for scooter riders or people who only ride in town, but if you are a rider who travels long distances at speed, then this helmet is not the helmet for you. I have been pleased with Shoei helmets in the past, but this one is poor. ]]> Sat, 10 Apr 2010 21:49:11 -0700 33-7 http://bikechatter.net/helmets/33-raid2-helmet If you are looking for a top end helmet and the Shoei fits your head shape you will not really find much to complain about with this lid, it comes fitted with the standard Shoei reputation and boastability factor that comes from years of high quality and countless unit sales worldwide. Ventilation seems to very good as does road noise, the build is good and other than the visor screw going missing (which lets face it could be an isolated fault) I had no cause to complain. Price wise, I think this is priced correctly for the specification and also the company reputation - if you want the best you pay a little more than the rest which certainly seems to be the case here, compared to other comparable manufacturers models is is a little more expensive though so I have to give it one less point in value for money. ]]> Sat, 05 Jul 2008 14:55:48 -0700
