Shoei RF-1100 Excellent - James from Las Vegas NV
Recommended by Reviewer: Yes
Pros: Excellent build quality and love the new face shield that pulls itself tighter to the shell - it actually works
Cons: They aren't free
Really excellent helmet. I buy Shoei and Arai because I love riding and want to give myself the best protection possible. I know there are other good name brand helmets out there but for the last 25 years its been Shoei and Arai for me. I admit to holding on to them longer than you're supposed to but I also treat them like Faberge eggs. This new Shoei face shield really works as advertised to make the helmet noticeably quieter than my old Shoei and Arai. I ride both faired and unfaired bikes and it works on both. I highly recommend this helmet.

I am so happy that I went with competition accessories to get my fiances RF-1100 matte black helmet! They had awesome customer service super fast shipping and the item arrived in great brand new never been touched condition! I am very impressed and I will definitely be buying more items from them in the near future!

My first Shoei full face. The RF-1100 is awesome. Quiet and a great fit. Love it. Also, service was fast and easy.

I ve worn shoei helmets since the RF 700, buying each new generation: with the new multitec thrown in for flip up convenience. The new RF 1100 is by far the best I ve owned so far. The removable interior and size adjustable cheek pads make custom fitting this helmet a snap. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to upgrade from an older shoei or switching to the shoei brand.

By far the best helmet I've owned in the last 10 years. Coolest ventilation system yet. Very comfortable even in South Texas heat and humidity.

I debated between the RF-1100 and the new Arai RX-Q, but could not justify the huge price difference for the Arai, even though I liked the interior better. This Shoei is excellent in every respect: The comfort is great, venting is great, the removable lining is great, the peripheral vision is great, and I like that the aerodynamic shape is molded into the contours of the shell. There is no fragile plastic wing glued onto the ouside of the helmet. I was at the high end of the Shoei posted size chart "Medium" range, but had to size up the the large. Definately try on the helmet before buying. I selected the pearl grey color sight unseen, and I was delighted. The shiny metal-flake paint was flawless and the color is absolutely gorgeous. Perfect with a silver, grey or black bike--or . I am extremely pleased with my purchase and am glad that I did not spend the extra 250 for the Arai RX-Q

Quieter than my X-11 YES, but the quietest I've tested no, R2S2 still gots Shoei beat, but this maybe a cam issue with the locking mechanism so I've heard. Very comfortable and for the winter time if you don't want air rushing in this thing blocks it! Did a test run, yes in 20F weather, for all vents at 80mph and in-town, avg 45mph, and this helmet sucks in air big time. I am very impressed by the new Shoei RF-1100 so much so I may just retire my X-11.

Best helmet I've owned in my 60 years. Great peripheral vision and pretty quiet. Washable and replaceable lining, too!! Whatever will they think of next

My first ride with this was amazing. The field of vision is HUGE and wind and engine noise was dramatically less than my mid-range HJC lid. Airflow is great. Fit and finish are top notch. If this helmet doesn't work great for you, it is your freakishly shaped melon, not this lid.
The only issue was that the face shield was a little loose which caused a whistle at 40 mph. Take the shield off, loosen the two plate screws, pull the plate all the back, and tighten. Problem solved.
And the Competition Accessories price for this is SICK! Brick and mortar this helmet goes for 460. Other online stores it goes for 399. At 309, I was tempted to buy two and throw one in the back of the closet as a back-up.
Shoei RF-1100 - 614gixxer
Recommended by Reviewer: Yes
Pros: Great fit, easily removable washable liner
Cons: noise, cost
I had higher expectations, since this is a premier helmet with a price to match. The choices of sizes and fit is excellent as well as the finish. But it is noisy and the vents, when open, catch on things.

Shoei RF-1100 - Brandon
Recommended by Reviewer: Yes
Pros: Good fit, easy removeablewashable interior
Cons: vents whistle, noisy
This is my first premium helmet. It is nicer than some of the bargain brands I have owned before...but buy it on sale, because I don't think it's 2 or 3 times better. The interior is easily removed and re-installed for washing. the visor is distortion-free. But it's noisy and the vent whistle. I expected more, but it's still a solid choice.

Bought to make my primary helmet with a chatterbox set up, but because of let downs in this product. Were to start,
Cons:
The wind shield is flimsy, no biggy except that the seal on the helmet, especially the top side, doesn't seal all that great so there is wind whistle from that area. Even with the front intake open there is still fogging issues. And no my breath is not on dragon status, don't have issue with other helmet anti fog wind shields
Pros:
Air flow on top side is pretty good. Padding is comfortable but lacks some guess for the the design it was made for and that is for intercom set up and ventilation. Comes with a free wide mess chin guard. Has a wind shield lock that I think should have been a positive wind shield sealing lock. Great Price from CompAcc
I can't call it, this will be my spare helmet which sucks because I had high hope for it since it is Shoei.
Be the first to rate it!
