Shoei X-11 Full Face Helmet - Vermeulen 3 TC-3
Average Customer Rating:     5.0 out of 5 (based on 2 ratings)
Shoei's top-of-the-line performance helmet — the X-ELEVEN, is a study in safety design, ventilation and aerodynamic engineering.
Features
Aerodynamic Shell Design
- Aerodynamic properties are maximized through extensive wind tunnel testing and professional riders' feedback.
- The Aero Edge Spoiler dramatically reduces drag and lift coefficients, thus diminishing rider fatigue and increasing performance.
Hyper Dual-Liner II Ventilation System
- Offers unmatched ventilation with internal channels and exhaust ports throughout the helmet.
- The Dual Air Charge system: A forehead lower intake and a forehead upper "Air Scoop II", combine to maximize flow-through ventilation.
- Outlet holes in the Aero Edge Spoiler allow warm air to be exhausted.
- The lower air intake provides an additional source of air flow.
- The neck outlet vent allows for effective air exhaust.
Lightweight, Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus (AIM+)
- High performance fiber materials are combined with extremely elastic organic fibers to create a shell structure that is ultra lightweight, rigid and resilient.
Anti-Fog System
- Exhaled air is absorbed into the "Breath Chamber II" and exhausted by negative air pressure, thus eliminating shield fogging.
- The lower air intake provides air flow that helps to diminish shield fogging.
3D Full Support Interior, Type 3
- The entire interior lining (cheek pads, upper liner and chin strap covers) is easily removed to allow for cleaning and/or replacement.
- Each component of the inner liner is ergonomically designed to offer safety, fit and comfort.
Standard Chin-Strap Clip
- Neatly secures chin strap.
CX-1 V Shield and Lock System
- Q.R.B.P. (Quick-Release Base Plate) allows toolless shield removal.
- A wide, 3-dimensionally curved shield offers increased peripheral vision and optical clarity.
- Scratch-resistant coating.
- 100% protection from harmful UV A & B rays.
- A pre-set lever can easily lock the shield in place to prevent it from opening unexpectedly.
- Shield cleaning kit included.

    Crash tested, brain still works. |
By Rick on 12/31/2008
Pros: light, good visor mechanism, great craftsmanship, good interior materials, works great in a crash
Cons: seems expensive.....until you smash your head into the ground and still know who you are.
chin curtain blew out while riding
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: Try on the helmet before you buy, make sure you know what size you really need
Long story short, my head hit the ground going about 50 (maybe a little faster). The helmet did its job and prevented any injuries to my head. It was a fairly brutal impact and suddenly I was no longer concerned about the price I had paid for this helmet (and will pay for the next one). I was pleased enough with the performance of the X11 that I sent Shoei an unsolicited thank you note
