Shoei RF-1200 Helmet Review http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/shoei-rf-1200-helmet-solid?utm_source=youtube.com&utm;_medium=description&utm;_campaign=Shoei_RF_1200_Helmet The new Shoei RF-1200 is a helmet without faults. We've poured over every inch of the Shoei and have come up short every time for any nitpicks or gripes. From the ground up, the Shoei RF-1200 has been completely redesigned and we are massively impressed. Starting with the new lower profile, more aerodynamic outer shell that has been true wind-tunnel tested. The RF-1200 still meets both DOT and Snell 2010 standards and is offered in 4 shell sizes. Weight savings over the RF-1100 were about 2 ounces or about 60 grams in the new RF-1200. New venting channels and vent systems simplify and increase airflow over the RF-1100. A new faceshield and base plate come with the new 1200. The CWR-1 Faceshield will be Pinlock ready in the box and features a new reinforcing ridge at the top and bottom of the shield that prevents flex and deformation over time. These ridges also act as a "max-vision" housing for the included Pinlock Lens. The new QRE base plate offers fine-tuning for the user and is easy to release the faceshield. The internal fitting shape remains the same as the RF-1100, but a new 3D Max Dry 2 System in the interior is softer to the touch and more comfortable against the face. For the first time in a RF series helmet, emergency cheek pad removal system will come standard in the RF-1200 and the EPS liner even has built-in pockets for a communication system. The new Shoei RF-1200, I think I'm in love.
