Shoei's X-11 Kiyonari helmet graphics are aggressive and uncompromising, which might be just the attitude you want on the road. We do, after all, have to ride more defensively than any cager. Our reflexes must be sharp and our actions bold.
While I can deal with any differences of opinion on the graphics of a helmet, safety is not something I'm about to debate. Luckily, Shoei has a track record that cannot be discounted. The X-11 shell is Shoei's proprietary AIM+ technology. Organic fibers mixed with fiberglass creates a light compound that can only be cut using a laser, according to Shoei.
It would be impossible to tell you all of the features of the Shoei X-11. I will just say that the ventilation is astounding, it is comfortable enough to wear all day without growing to hate it, and the shields are high-quality and easy to switch on the go. There are several pages of technical specs if you're interested in researching them, which you ought to do because the price is a weighty one.
Shoei's helmets are covered by a warranty of 5 years from the purchase date or 7 years from the manufacture date. If you can afford the cost, you will not regret your purchase. You have 25 colors and styles from which to choose, just in case you're like me and not that keen on the dragon. Pick a good one, because it will be with you for a while.
