Your thoughts on the new Shoei X-11

[FatSlim]

I would love to get one, but Shoei really messed up the shield. It doesn't fit proper againts the rubber seal. I'll stick to the RF-900 until they get it right.

You can fine-tune the position of the visor hinges and therefore the fit against the rubber seal. Unfortunately, you have to take the visor off to do it so it requires some trial and error to get it right, but it is an easy fix. The RF-900 hinges adjust the same way; yours apparently came from the factory with a good seal already.

Yeah- what FatSlim said.

I have found a "sweet spot" where you just snug up those screws, adjust the visor fit, look where everything is, then carefully pop the visor and tighten them all the way. In any case, with a little patience, you'll get it.

Is this helmet considered a Arai shape or standard Shoei shape? I have the head shape of a alien so most helmets like the Soumy don't fit right.
