Description
Size:Large | Color:TC-5
The latest generation in the most prestigious pedigree of premium full-face motorcycle helmets, the RF-1200, like its many RF predecessors before it, is the new pinnacle of helmet performance and technology. A lighter, more compact and streamlined helmet with next-level functionality, SHOEI's RF-1200 rules every aspect of the road, and then some. But don’t just take the critics' rave reviews for face value; it’s your turn to experience the excitement of riding in an RF-1200. DOT approved. Meets the FMVSS 218 Standard.
I had expected the INC system to actually do something with the noise. But not. Can’t hear a difference with or without above 40km/t. Can in no circumstances be compared to the Bose in-ear-noise-cancelling-system, which is about 50 times better...
The thick ear pads was to thick, so I swapped them with the thin ones; more comfortable but not thigh enough to the speakers. In some way , the speakers should have been closer to the ear. As it is now, It is too much room around the earlobes, so I will try to put in a part from a hearing protection aid to lessen the wind reaching my ears. The mic function well, but it is difficult to use voice commands above 50km/t. The integrated intercom is nice and easy to use.
I also have to question the aerodynamics of the helmet: It’s very noisy, seems to lack any form for spoiler or deflecting zones to avoid turbulence around the helmet..
After a year of use my Bluetooth battery is dead, not happy. Also the helmet is comfortable but very noisy ! If you already for a built-in bluetooth helmet I suggest look for the upper end helmets
Once you manage to put this helmet on if you can then everything is alright, more then alright. Sound quality is amazing and INC is functional and I can totally see how it can save your hearing. Build quality and material is on or about of the $150-$200 helmet, design is just ok.
Fit is important
