shoei and arai should be S class. The quality of their helmets and the amount of time they spend on r&d and safety testing justifies the price 100%

[haydenschultz]

As someone who sells gear for a living. I do believe Yammie may have smoked the good stuff before making this video.

[weibrot]

Honestly HJC deserves a spot on its own, to my knowledge there is no other brand who managed to make a ECE 22.06 helmet for 110€

[TheCresar]

Icon before Shoei, that tier list isn't any valid.

[sammy]

Bought my last Arai from a large Yamaha dealer. When it came in, they made me take it out of the box so they could see it! “Nobody spends more than $200 for a helmet”! Wow! Love Arai most of all helmets period!

[Bonyasuke_]

Both Arai & Shoei should be listed on S tier 🤷‍♂️

[thepsychicpeach]

AGV, Shoei, Arai, Shark, X-Lite, HJC, Bell, SUOMY, Scorpion are easily top tier.

[osuokie]

I think bell in c tier is a bit unfair, its clearly a step above the rest of the c tier and its better than most of the B tier too

[ryandebolt]

"If you wanna look like the predator or boba fett" - Looks at my HJC RPHA-11 with the boba fett livery.

[maxmilian]

i love how Icon got an S tier, when i went looking for a helmet seeing the airflite immediately got my heart as it is such an unique helmet, even tho i own the stealth MIPS, i love how they have crazy designs and the quality is pretty nice for the price. just get some earplugs because the airflite is loud as hell. however the vision you get through the vizor and the airflow in the helmet is amazing, and you can customize it to your liking as it can change face shield in different colors or remove it ad a MX peak and you have your motocross helmet which is great for someone who owns and Supermoto and likes to goof around off-road.

[andyl]

Wasn't expecting to see HJC in S, but I'm not complaining. My RPHA 11 has been great.

[dennismckee]

Arai and Shoei are head and shoulders above the rest. I'm replacing my Corsair X with the AGV K6 S, today. I hope I'm not disappointed.

[mk_]

Proud of Yammie acknowledging the AGV K5 as a good helmet for the streets, I have the S model and it's incredibly comfortable, and alongside that it has amazing ventilation, my county dailies beyond a hundred degrees fahrenheit, and this helmet has yet to leave me wanting anything more

[philip]

Forgot the comfort levels of the helmet too. Arai and Shoei are one of the most comfiest helmets out there along with safety and function. You get what you pay for and they deserve to be on the S list.

[toshy]

You seriously put Bell on C-tier and Icon on S-tier? Oh god...

[TakiInoueDidNothingWrong]

9:52 Rossi also has a sizable ownership stake and sits on the board of directors of AGV/Dainese so it’s not like he’d wear anything else

[KyleMicena]

Missed Suomy, probably the most underrated helmet on the market. The SR GP is FIM homologated. Wide vision like a AGV Pista. Comes in carbon fiber so it's super lightweight. Amazing track and race helmet.

[giantslug]

That Scorpion EXO-R1 is real nice. The air fit system needs to be more widely used.

[fakestig]

I'd move LS2 up now; they've got genuinely affordable FIM helmets which is crazy

[bajacore]

I picked up an RF-1200 near the end of their lifecycle and couldn't be happier. Head stays cool when it's hot and comfortable when it's not. Got it for a bargain too.
