I think he did a while back, but maybe in another thread. It was bought for his dad but he didn't like it or it didn't fit. He ended up keeping it and loved it. Lightest fullface out there. Looks great too.

Love 99% of it. The light weight is amazing. the fit and finish is great. The one thing I'm not thrilled with is the visor. Everything about it. The lack of a quick change is annoying. They did that for weight, but it's so annoying. You can buy a kit that converts it to their quick change, but then you have to buy a new visor. And speaking of the visor, it's actually not the best I've had. High end visors like my Bell, even though they're really dark, they're crystal clear. This one seems to be quite foggy. Almost to the point it seems dirty when it's completely clean. Not sure if I just got a funky one. But this one isn't great. I'm going to buy the quick change and the new visor when funds allow and we'll see how clear the new one is.

Yes the flash was on because i wanted to verify reflectivity. Normally it's a bright red in sunlight but when a headlight hits it, it shows lit up. Very happy with this $12 mod. Take your time with it and go the wet route.

Thanks,
I've been seeing alot more of them, just trying to gauge everyone's opinion.
The lightweight is what draws me in, would you say the wind noise is similar to other reputable helmets?
I've also heard the shape is similar to the rf1100, which fits me great.
Hell, the appearance of the xr1r is enough to peak my interest. Great looking piece. :thumbup:
road 416 miles yesterday, second oil change of the season today along with chain lube and a new tank pad.

Put 4 Rizoma Avio 21s on my baby, with magic blinkers for the front. I really missed running lights. Glad they're back. And 6 load equalizers later my fast blink is gone forever! Since the magic blinkers are only in the front it makes the front and rear alternate, which is kinda cool looking. After that I went for a 2up ride with my girlfriend to enjoy the weather 
I'll try to post pics of the rizomas soon, they look super nice. Glad I got rid of my cheap ones that came with the ebay FE.

Yeah the shape is about the same as the shoei. As for wind, i wear ear plugs so its hard to tell. I think its actually really quiet though for how much air it flows. I went a head and ordered the quick change kit and new visor so ill let you know what i thino of the new visor when i get it.

I love my PP3's. for future reference, I wouldn't make a habit out of letting the calipers hang from the brake lines.
Cleaned both the bike & Chain.....

Rode 2 up for the first time today, and the girl had never been on a bike either.
Made for a less than desirable jaunt, but I don't think I scared her away from bikes.
Mission accomplished. :thumbup:

Used Turtle Wax ICE line spray wax to detail after the wash. Great stuff. Safe to use on all the plastic, windshield, and used some on my helmet shield. Great at not leaving streaks. Only thing I avoided contact with was the matte finished engine parts. Easy application... One microfiber for wiping on. One for drying off. Pleasant smell too. Not sure about durability yet, but it beads water like a mother. *FIRST POST BTW* p.s.-also cleaned and lubed the chain with Honda pro chain clean and Honda pro chain lube w/ moly. Pricey, but I like the stuff. Protects well and doesn't fling. Happy to be part of the forum. Lots of great stuff on here.
