Thanks, so is your Bell Star. Both are awesome helmets.
Helmets in this price range are all about personal fit and the RF-1200 fit me like a glove. I tried enough of them; really testing Revzilla's return policy. LOL.
They are supposed to come out with a Transitions shield next month. I've got one on order.

Nice looking but when I saw the price of $650 thats more than a schuberth that is the lightest/quietest helmet on the market.
For the person that asked how to buy and fit them on your head, you have to go somewhere that sells them and try them on, when you find the one that fits go online and buy. You may get lucky and the local dealer may match the online price.

With regards to weight I can vouche for it being tidiculously light. Almost to the point that I don't even realize I have a helmet on.
Looks. Holy **** it's amazing
Quality top notch
Ventilation it's like having air conditioning.
It's probably the best lid owned.
Now I've never owned a schuberth so I can't compare.
Pricing it's fair. Definitely fair. It's probably in the top 5 helmets on the market that is being used in the pro circuit.
I bought it for $400. So there is deals on them you just got to look and find the right seller as I did.

That's a great looking helmet denalion22!
You'll appreciate being able to take the pads out to de-stinkify them. I'm wearing an Arai Profile and XD-3 and have to do the dunk-it-in-a-tub method to get the pads clean.
The carbon looks great on any helmet. Prices will eventually come down across the board...I hope. The KBC carbon helmet is a great looking helmet, but the build quality of the KBC's doesn't seem to be where Bell, Arai, Shoei, etc. are. The Arai carbon helmet is stratospherically high.

I buy pretty much everything online after reading and researching...
For Harley Parts I only buy from Kutter Harley Davidson... They are the best
for everything else I use motorcycle superstore dot come or revzilla... both places don't charge tax and shipping is fast and usually free.
Lastly there return policy is great you don't like it box it back and ship it back...
ya you have a chance with a helmet that it does not fit etc... but they will take it
back which is cool...

one thing learned that I did not think was true about helmets is that you buy for a pretty tight fit. Almost too tight. A very experienced race rider told me this, and showed me how tight a helmet should feel..like real tight to the point where you cant get your hands into the sides between you and the helmet. When you turn you head fast, helmet should not move at all.
now that I am used to this fit I would not go back.
