suomy= too bad they cost so much and id drop it anyway.

 

ive heard good things about them, but im just not sure about there crazy *** paint schemes. and yes they do cost alot

 

I don't know what there is to know other than what you see from the image (vents and such) and that they are DOT and SNELL approved....

They are very comfortable if they fit your head properly....I really liked them, but i went with my Arai Quantum II instead... Nice helmet though if your into that crazy colors...

Didnt know Suomy's were snell too, thought they were just bsi.

 

They do have a tighter/smaller fit than the other helmets out there.

That store says the Suomy Spec 1R Extreme is a loud helmet. This is straight off of their website "ATTENTION: If you're looking for a helmet that can be worn without ear filters (Plugs), then don't even think about this helmet. However, if you're looking for a top of the line track, or race helmet, this would be it."

 

Here is their in house review http://www.helmetharbor.com/st...n.htm

Loud helmets just mean the helmet is ventilated efficiently. But I always wear ear plugs so helmet noise is no biggy

 

well, the Suomy spec1r and spec1r extreme are loud cause they are race helmets. They say race comes first street after

 

My buddy has one of those helmets...they fade very quickly its your choice...I would personally buy something along the lines of arai or a shoei...they are the best helmets for the money...buy something for the quality..not the way it looks....

 

thanks for the input guys. i am still wondering if i really want to spend that much on a helmet.

 

I love mine. No complaints. Heres the thread I wrote about it in case someone is considering it.
