Customer Reviews

Fantastic!5
It’s everything I looked for. Great fit, Very nice face shield, seals great, has high quality feel and several detents for partially open, etc. Visor is a touch shorter than a full off road MX style helmet, which is good at road speeds. Up to 60 mph or so…buffeting is not bad. Faster, I would say be careful. Any visor is gonna start to pull your head around as the wind picks up…but yes…visor is worth having, really blocks the low sun morning/eve. Fogging is very minimal except when I rode a few times at 35 degrees out, even then, only when stopped.

For Dual Sport riders, this is a great helmet. I hated to pay 400 bucks for it but did and am very glad. The cheekpads are removable and for 40 bucks, you can get thinner/thicker ones for a PERFECT feel.

What pushed me over the edge to buy was the feel, specifically…large ear pockets inside this helmet=NO crushed ears. I hate that!

The only real quality competitor to this model is the Arai XD, which is also a very nice helmet, fit, etc. BUT…visor is longer and I bet grabs more air=more wind buffeting on the street. For buzzing around town either would be good though. I did try both the Shoei and Arai on, then settled on the Shoei becuase of price and the shorter visor. A bonus I did not expect but got with this, is MUCH more peripheral vision than any of my street helmets in the past!

Lastly, Simpson makes a helmet of this type but the quality is not up to par. I wanted to buy American but nothing about it matched the Arai or Shoei. Too bad. I used to buy only Simpson.

Great helmet!5
This is my first full face helmet, so take this review with a grain of salt. I love this helmet! I could not be more happy. It keeps me warm in cold weather and cool when the sun is out. I have not had any issues with the visor lifting at high speed and it is nice not having to pull bugs out off of my face at dusk. I highly recommend the Hornet DS.

Shoei Helmet RF1000 CASTER TC5

Calendar March 5, 2010 | Posted by Helmets

Product Description

One of the most technologically advanced helmets for street riders and clearly one of the best-looking helmets on the market.

Shoei’s innovation and cutting-edge design makes the RF-1000 a premium sports helmet.

Aerodynamically superior, the RF-1000 full-face sport helmet delivers wind tunnel proven high speed performance and ventilation. A perfect fit is achieved through removable and adjustable cheek pads and 3D comfort liner system which doesn’t shift during high speed riding.

Another facet of the legendary Shoei fit is the use of 4 shell sizes, and 5 sizes of EPS liners. The RF-1000 shell is of Shoei’s proprietary AIM + (Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus Multi-fiber Technology), which embeds ultra strong organic fibers into fiberglass.The result is a lightweight, yet strong, outer shell that is better able to absorb and disperse the force of an impact.

The RF-1000. Protection, at its technological best.
