I couldn't find a store that had them in stock in the area so I ordered online. It was suppose to be here today, but due to all the snow we got this weekend it says it will be delivered tomorrow now. www.revzilla.com/product/akuma-phantom-carbon-fiber-helmet# This is what caught my eye when seeing the helmet.

If "Akuma" is meant to be Japanese, then it could be this 悪魔 (/'aku-ma/), which means "devil". You didn't modify the scooter? The scooter modified you! Scooter Hawgs scooterbug

I was just going to ask that! Mine seems fairly heavy. I will check out the weight on mine. Curious to see what the others weigh from Wayne's answer/comments. Facts always win.

Round-oval, or round head like mine is just asking for unbearable initial pain and possible loss of blood flow to the brain by trying to fit into this helmet. Sent it back and got an Arai Quantum II, still loving it. You didn't modify the scooter? The scooter modified you! Scooter Hawgs scooterbug

It was a tossup between the Phantom 2 and Nexx XR1R when I was looking. I bought the Nexx because I wanted the Pearl Orange color. The compared weight difference is 15 grams (.52oz). http://www.webbikeworld.com/r2/motorcycle-helmet/nexx-xr1r/ Last edited by Yeeppers on Tue Feb 09, 2010 7:19 pm; edited 1 time in total Just known as James
