I have a HJC but no clue what model it is since I've had it for like 4 years now. But I would love one of these. http://www.hjchelmets.com/images/products/product_images/ac12_carbon/carbon.jpg

Arai Signet-GT and Shoei X-Tec

both are soo much better than my HJC. Buying a good quality helmet is well worth the price in my opinion.

Mine helmet scorpion exo1000. Love it flows alot of air. Dont need a day visor bc it has the built in sun visor that comes down and if you just have the sun visor down you look like speed racer.

and the passanger helmet.

Arai RX7 Corsair. They are pricey like usually 600-700 depending on design. But they are great flowing helmets and just fit right. It all goes back to whether you are a Shoei or Arai head though.. haha Try both, some fit Shoei helmets better and some Arai. Either brand has different size cheek pads available and washable removable foam. All the parts for either are fully replaceable, as well.

Oh I don't know about you guys either but I rock ear plugs or ear buds if i'm breaking the law and listening to the ipod. To knock down on the wind noise on the highway. The more air the helmet seems to flow the louder it is when you're cruising pretty good.

I have a Joe Rocket Carbon Fiber Helmet... I forget the model... Its the one on the cover of Sport Rider (I think) right now. I'll try and post pics later... I had mine pinstriped red black and white to match my bike... Love the helmet...HJC makes them for Joe Rocket I believe.

learned a good bit about helmets at the shop i went to. im still undecided. spend $400+ on a Arai or Shoei or go cheap with KBC, HJC. most of these are snell approved. i guess it comes down to quality and features.

yeah im seriously considering picking up an exo1000 after seeing it on this forum, but i figure if i'm gonna get a top of the line model i might as well do my research and try out all the big brands beforehand

Shoei Joust/RF1000, love the micro visor vent feature, its no fun to have your visor fly wide open @ 60mph plus. Also my bike has no fairings or wind screen, but this helmet is nice and stable, no lift at speed and good anti-fog vent.
