Author Message   Loki Posted on Wednesday, January 26, 2005 - 12:54 pm:        Took my first ride with my new AC-11. I like! Not as noisy as some have said about it. I can actually wear it without earplugs at speed. It might help that I added the chin curtain which deflects a lot of the slipstream. Also picking up a barely used AC-10. Just about everyone raves about this one and bitches at AC-11.   Henrik Posted on Wednesday, January 26, 2005 - 01:26 pm:        I know I'm repeating one of my pet peeves: riding for any length of time at any speed without ear plugs is really bad for your hearing. Congratulations on the new helmet. Due to a little track "incident" I'm in the market myself Henrik   Loki Posted on Wednesday, January 26, 2005 - 02:04 pm:        Henrik, I am really big on the earplug deal also. Just tossing a comment out there about the helmet. Have seen nothing but good about the upper level HJC helmets. I have a CL-14 but is it real noisy. part of that it sized a bit to big.   Henrik Posted on Wednesday, January 26, 2005 - 02:27 pm:        Just tossing a comment out there about the helmet. gotcha Good idea for a baseline comparison. Henrik   Reepicheep Posted on Wednesday, January 26, 2005 - 02:55 pm:        Henrik... not to be nosy, but was the "incident" a SV moment, or an XB moment? You finally ready to dust that XB off now and let it loose at the track?   Henrik Posted on Wednesday, January 26, 2005 - 03:51 pm:        it was an SV moment ... I think I described it somewhere, possibly in a protective gear thread awhile back?? Need new gloves, new boots, rear-sets, levers and frame and swingarm sliders as well. Henrik   Ara Posted on Monday, October 16, 2006 - 01:17 pm:        Has anybody seen the new HJC all carbon fiber helmet? Awesome looks, but I'm wondering about noise and airflow.   Bluzm2 Posted on Monday, October 16, 2006 - 11:02 pm:        I've had one on but not riding. They are VERY light. I think you are referring to the AC12 Carbon right? It might be my next helmet. Brad   Ara Posted on Wednesday, October 18, 2006 - 10:13 am:        Brad, Yup, that's the one. I'm debating the HJC AC12 Carbon and the Icon domain. Both are striking in appearance, but since it's my head I'm not about to buy a helmet sight unseen. I can't find anybody who has either helmet in stock.
