    Default Bell RS-1

    Well here it is, my new 2011 BELL RS-1 This thing is plush. Did I say PLUSH! It is a tiny bit narrower than my now loose RF1000 Shoei but it hasn't broke in yet. The interior fits me better than the 2008 BELL STAR I had 3 years ago. I haven't ridden in it yet, but just by putting it on I can tell my glasses will work just fine

    A side by side with the old and the new . . .

    There was one little problem with the helmet, but BELL is all over it and sending me the part to repair it.


    And what's cool is that BELL is in the Santa Cruz area, Scotts Valley to be exact.
    Here is a great review video on this helmet.

    Sweet!
    Most of the time if you re-read my post with a sideways grin, it makes more sense! If it doesn't make sense, then

    No, no ride report yet. Because of the crank in the rear wing I held off on wearing it. Bell sent me a replacement vent set but they only make it in gloss black, mine isn't gloss black. So I email MotorcycleDiscounts.com and tellz them about the vent color and they sent me a call tag to pick up the damaged goods. I sent it off, they received it and sent me another helmet. I just received it today and it's perfect, and 2 months newer So I am very happy with MotorcycleDiscounts.com and BELL for dealing with this problem in a very professional and timely manner. And if you sold BELL's I would of bought it from you John.
    A picture of the vent wing BELL sent me, not a match at all . . .

    and one of the stock vent wing w/crack

    and the new one
