Hi All:
___I was just on the phone with Arai’s marketing partner, Rick Menapace of the Plummer/Menapace Group and we will have an Arai XD3 available. I requested a “bright” solid of white or silver and if they have those colors available, that is what we will receive.
___Similarly, there was an article I linked in the Shoei review that had some unsubstantiated results that I removed after some discussion about helmet construction and safety analysis done by both SNELL and the DOT.

___Current plans are a late June Thursday drive out to NY in a 2010 TCH to hit Ricardo’s home near Albany. From there, a drive to pick up Harry (Earthling) and on to Eastern NY for a quick Electric bike review, back to BMW for a two day ride on the G 650 GS and hopefully an R 1200 RT and back again.
___This will be a good overview of the Arai XD3. Advantages for the Arai over the Shoei are numerous but I did not know this until just today ;)
___Good Luck
