Default Shoei RF-1000 Solid Colors - $189.99 today (12/16) Only

http://www.bikebandit.com/shoei-rf-1....mc_id=2165266

I just bought one to replace mine. Talked to a service rep who said the manufacture date on these is 02/09.

They have the TZ-R Orb helmets for the same price, but I did not verify the manufacture date on those.

Not a bad deal, but hasn't that model been around for 5-6 years? Time for a major update.

Says the guy that drools over cars from the 90's and rides an 8-year-old bike.

While something newer may be lighter / more comfortable, why pay 2-3X's as much?

For $190, it's a bargain.

agreed. I almost posted this but my phone doesn't have cut and paste so... don't forget if you are an AMA member you get a 10% discount.

The one I ordered is on back order.

I am trying to decide if I want to wait or just get another color.
