So, I finally decided to replace my old Shoei with a new model. The RF-1400 offers a 2020 Snell rating and incorporates a "slip-liner" to provide rotational impact load capacity. Sounds like a good deal.

I am shopping for helmets also, and am also finding that selection is very limited. It is also an awkward time to be buying with the new ECE 22.06 helmets coming out this year. I think these will be the safest helmets available. It might be a while before one of these helmets is available in the U.S., though. |

The whole world has a shortage of helmets at the moment due to supply issues at manufacture as it takes a whole lot if little bits to make a helmet |

You might be able to get one from Amazon. Lee |

Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #7 That's interesting. The listing on Amazon is a change in the past day or two. I wonder if the retailers on Amazon are sourcing that single helmet at Chapparal Motosports? Helmet House (the distributor), Dennis Kirk and Revzilla(Cycle Gear) are showing out of stock.

Zitat von Mr. 36654 im Beitrag #8 Looks like Siminole Powersports is connected to JP Cycle. When I checked JP they showed out of stock. https://www.amazon.com/sp?_encoding=UTF8...QMPVS&sshmPath= Lee |

Zitat von Mr. 36654 im Beitrag #10 I don't know if they are connected to Revzilla. They used to be located in NE Iowa and only handled Cruiser stuff. They're much larger now, handle a little bit of everything and I believe are now located in Texas.

It's unfortunate that the RF1400 is only available in the Matte colors. I would have bought one when they first came out if I could have got the glossy anthracite of my RF1200. I am old school and like glossy paint. I have seen the matte colors and think they look like A$$, just a way to cheap out on paint in my opinion. |
