Who makes the best helmet?

Looking to purchase 2 new helmets , who makes the best helmets, thoughts etc.

Arai. Period.

The best helmet is one that fits you properly. Go to a couple local motorcycle shops or motorsport show or something and try several on, several brands and several models within brands. MANY people wear helmets that are way too big.

The best quote that was always said to me was if you have a $5 head get a $5 helmet.

Arai is out of stock in us for the helmet i want, i'm not looking for a cheap helmet , i want to buy whats the safest , regardless of cost.....

The Seebold Racing Team used to be Arai dealers.
Try calling them. I believe they are in the St. Louis area.

Since $$$$ does not necessarily equate to a helmet being safer, where can you go to view actual independent lab testing to find measurable data to verify safety level for a helmet ?

[PAUL PRICE]

Helmets are for outboard use

Arai. Period.

I had an Arai, it was the best helmet that I ever had.

I always wore Bell helmets until they stopped making one that I liked. At that point I bought a Shoei and I liked it just fine. I've never had an Arai but they have a good reputation. If I were in the market for a helmet today I'd take a very close look at Airoh brand helmets.

I like my Simpson helmet. Some things to look for besides fit, are weight heavier helmet= more stress on neck. Also, a lot of motorcycle helmets have contours and vents that can cause more drag when it hits the water. You should talk to Bob Wartinger about safety of helmets also.

Realy Like my new Aria. its small to keep drag down when entering the water, light, and it fits very nice, no movement even in rough water.

Simpson stop making the helmet i like

[G Stillwill]

I use a Shoei it worked well even with the bro cap on it....lol

Impact (carbon fiber one) is "the" best. Arai is good for a inexpensive helmet. But, I think I'm upgrading from the Simpson to the IMPACT!!! It's just over a grand, but, a head injury is forever!!!!
