Our Two Cents
The RF-1100 metallic finish helmets from Shoei have clean lines with an aggressive look. There is a greater degree of visibility with this helmet; the CW-1 shield is both taller and wider than the CX-IV it replaces. The variable ventilation system has three intake and six exhaust vents, allowing riders to adjust the airflow to whatever condition they’re riding in while keeping noise to a minimum. Shoei makes high quality helmets; this one is no exception. There are quite a few good color choices and the finish is well done.
