Great helmet, my replacement for the X-eleven
I had to replace my helmet recently due to an encounter with a deer. My old helmet was an X-eleven, and I loved it. My only complaint about both helmets is the fogging problem I have. Most of the time, I have to keep the visor cracked open, or, I will fog up. This, despite having all the air vents open. This is the only reason I didn't give the helmet 5 stars. Helmet City was great- I ordered in the afternoon, and it was on my doorstep the next afternoon!

Worth every penny
Having owned several VFX Shoei helmets (motocross) in the past, I can honestly say the X-12 is worth every penny. The fit is true, the features and quality are what you'd expect from Shoei. I didn't like the graphics models, so I bought the Anthracite solid. Couldn't be happier! It's the kind of helmet that, when you hold it in your hands, you'll say to yourself: "They got it right".
