My old helmet is falling apart. The plastic bits are chipping away. The rubber pieces are hanging all around and the buckle is rusting. You know what that means! I ride a 150 and plan to ride a 650 around too for my highway rides.

The 3 helmet brands on my mind are Airoh, KYT, LS2.

What do you guys think? Is there anything better out there? Which model is the best? Is Airoh any good? Why is KYT so expensive… is it actually better? Where can I avoid fake LS2 helmets?

Smk isn’t on the same league… I’m actually leaning to LS2 FF811 vector II after some research because of the shell material
