Average Customer Rating:5.0 out of 5 (based on 3 ratings)
One of the most technologically advanced helmets for street riders and clearly one of the best-looking helmets on the market.
Shoei’s innovation and cutting-edge design makes the RF-1000 a premium sports helmet.
Aerodynamically superior, the RF-1000 full-face sport helmet delivers wind tunnel proven high speed performance and ventilation. A perfect fit is achieved through removable and adjustable cheek pads and 3D comfort liner system which doesn’t shift during high speed riding.
Another facet of the legendary Shoei fit is the use of 4 shell sizes, and 5 sizes of EPS liners. The RF-1000 shell is of Shoei’s proprietary AIM + (Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus Multi-fiber Technology), which embeds ultra strong organic fibers into fiberglass.The result is a lightweight, yet strong, outer shell that is better able to absorb and disperse the force of an impact.
The RF-1000 Protection, at its technological best.

I went straight to a premium helmet for my first helmet purchase. 2 years from now i didnt want 3 different helmets sitting round my garage before i finally caved in and spent some real money on a quality lid. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra money on a top of the line helmet. Mind you this helmet fits a particular head shape, so if you have a "shoei" head, more oval, dont look elsewhere. Its light, flows a lot of air with minimal noise, and finish is top of the line. I wont be borrowing my buddies helmets anymore.

Blue / Black
By Tree from Orlando, FL
Pros: GREAT FITTING...shoei goes beyond to make sure their helmets fit even the most oddly shaped heads. The ventilation is excellent...u can even feel the air cooling your head at low speeds. Super light weight, and really keeps ur head steady at high speeds, thanks to the rear dorsal.
Cons: i dont find the defogger to be the best feature on it. But thats so minor compared to the overall GREATNESS of this helmet.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: when u first get it...cheek pads might seem a little bit tight...they will be a perfect fit once u break in the helmet. If not you can just replace them the pads w / thinner ones
