im sure you guys have seen the pictures. it looks gorgeous. it fits a little funny at first but you get used to it. my only complaint is that there is a hard spot that could use some padding right on the forehead. if you ride for any distance, it gives you a headace. it looks a lot better in person than in the pictures. there are a lot of little accents with mesh covering holes, its light weight, and the vent in the front goes right up the shield, so as long as your moving, there is no fogging.

I too like the KBC lids, my back up lid is a blue EURO VR-1. I have since been riding with the Arai RX-7 Corsair "Nakano" in red. It blows the KBC away as far as comfort and wind noise reduction.

I also have that repsol helmet. No complaints as of yet but, it is my first helmet so I have nothing to compare it to.

300 smehundred....if I had a Repsol, I'd buy the helmet in a heartbeat. The Repsol edition 1k is the sweetest thing on 2 wheels. It deserves to be accented with such a head piece.

Currently enjoying the matching helmet to the Repsol Edition. Tempted to drag in a pair of Repsol leathers, but that may be too much. Have another set of armor from Joe Rocket coming in next week. Actually am impressed with Matt Maladin's choice of sport helmet... So far so good and that's helluva compliment coming from a former ARAI/SHOEI only promoter.... I'm still getting another Shoei as soon as Nicky Hayden's Edition drops a bit or it rolls around on Ebay sometime next year....

I just bought the new 06 Repsol Lether Jacket and It Is Mint. I love it i was going to get the textile but I thought that would be a bit to much

would really love to know where you found your helmet, just bought a 2003 repsol honda and can't find a helmet anywhere, riding with my old helmet and the color of the cbr just don't go together, thanks

Im pissed. I have a kbc vr2? I have been looking for a new lid all over the place. Never saw that Resol version. That is my bike. Just bought the new Sorpion exo 1000. It is one sweet lid. But I wish i would have seen that.
