SHOEI’s all-new QWEST Touring Helmet
I had bought this helmet at the bike show late January this year. Now that the rain finally stopped here, I rode in to work with my brand new helmet today.
The QWEST provides a wider peripheral vision as compared to the RF1000 and I'm liking it so far. The QWEST was reviewed in various magazine articles and recommend for its quietness. This helmet also has grooves on its sides for glasses as well as cavities to attach intercom speakers. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

pricey but probably worth every penny. After all it is our heads we're protecting.

Anyways, Qwest is actually cheaper than RF1100, the successor of the RF1000, my old helmet. Because Shoeis fit me the best, I don't mind paying a little more. |

I'm willing to bet you will change your tune when you get to be an old relic of 65.

I always thought 65 was old, until I got there.
