Shoei Quest Airfoil or the Icon Airframe Lifeform helmet?

[TopPud]

Thanks to an early post.. I got a heads up on a shoei quest helmet that I can get for $275 where as its normally $490, And everywhere else has em on sale for around $350. Now thats a great deal. But I have always kept an eye on and thinks its a nice looking helmet at the Icon Airframe. Thats about $280. Whats your guy's thoughts?? Is the higher price always better?

The best helmet for you is the one that fits best on your head. If they both fit the same, go with the Shoei. It's a great deal!

My qwest arrives on Friday but I've tried them in the store. There's something very luxurious about the liner. It seems more comfortable and more plush than any other helmet Ive tried. Personally I don't think Icon is really in the same level as Shoei, but it ultimately depends on what fits your head best.

Shoei is a great helmet. That deal on the Quest is really great!

As for the liner nothing beat the scorpion but the qwest is still good

So were is the Quest on sale? I've looked at some Icons and the ones I've tried on always seem to be of a lower quality than the Shoei.
