I don’t have much experience with their stuff, but I like the designs. Arai helmets are really great, but too pricey for me right now. I’ve got a joe rocket that keeps my head secure.
as far as the boobs – obligatory omnom. as far as the jacket, nice.
@outoffocus With helmets, I wouldn’t worry about bigger price tags so much — you usually get what you pay for. I paid more for my helmet than I did for my bike, actually. If you <3 it, then it was totally worth the extra $$.
On a related note: I just got my motorcycle license yesterday! I figure after twelve years, I should ride legally.
I agree that because I <3 it, it was worth the heavily discounted price I paid for it. 🙂 However, hefty price tag doesn’t necessarily = better when it comes to helmets.
My biggest reason for preferring Arai is that the shells are simply lighter than the others. Since I wear ear plugs the fact that they are louder than many other brands is a non-issue for me.
My friend has one of their helmets. Nice stuff. I <3 my Arai. The price tag on Scorpion stuff is preferable though.
Ad=sad 🙁

I have a helmet, jacket and gloves from them.
I love them all. especially the helmet and gloves.

I feel like a grown-up.

It’s a bit long but informative.

Oh yeah, and congrats on being a legal rider. :] My license picture is from the day I passed the written test and boy do I look like a happy dork!
