Re: Xpeed Helmets
never heard of them... but a quick google search shows that they look very similar to Icon's, which are a decent middle of the road helmet.

Re: Xpeed Helmets
Webbikeworld just posted a review on these helmets. I think I am going to look into getting one.

Re: Xpeed Helmets
After reading the review on WBW again I decided to order one of these in red and one of their Orange gradient lenses from motorcyclesuperstore.com Saturday night. It shipped today and once I get it I will post some first impressions and then some more info once I get to wear it for a bit. I was looking for a new helmet because the Scorpion EXO-700 I have doesnt fit my head right. Accordion to WBW the EXO-700 is a round shape and I have more of a oval head, the helmet is okay for about 30-45 mins but after that all I can think about is how much pressure it puts on the front and back of my head.

Re: Xpeed Helmets
Thanks for ur thoughts,i hope ur new helmet but we arnt getting that model out here in Australia at the moment
 .We are only getting the xf503 and due to the lack of info on them i opted to go with the AGV stealth...... A little noisy but so far im wrapped in it,plus the 5 star rating in the SMART test helped me make the choice...

Re: Xpeed Helmets
If you have extra money, wait a little and get ARAI. I had Scorpion exo 1000, and HJC something (can't really remember which on... Was piece of crap tho).
Once I put ARAI Vector web blue on... I was sold. Night and day difference i tell ya.
