I'm finally retiring my old white one. I've had it and used it almost every day for the past 5 years, and has been the absolute best helmet ever.
With that kind of a history and satisfaction, I couldn't NOT buy another one. The old helmet is an Arai VX-Pro. The new one is the exact, updated model VX-Pro 3.The Arai helmets are not cheap, but the quality, fit, and finish is second to none. This is the Rolls Royce of dirt helmets. I took a step away from my traditional, easy to spot, white helmet color and went with the new "Black Frost" color offered by Arai. It will match my gear better and I think the flat black color is pretty awesome looking. Arai has added some really nice new features to version 3 of the VX-Pro, a closable/openable vent in the chin bar, 1 step easily removable side pads in case of an accident, improved air venting on the back and sides, a rubber dirt cover that goes up and actually covers your nose a bit with goggles. Its a hella nice setup. Can't wait to use it :)
