Shoei, Cater TC-5, RF-1000 Question?

Hey all, I'm thinking about purchasing the shoei caster tc-5 Rf-1000 helmet. QUESTION???? Does anyone have one of these? If so How do you like it? How is the noise level inside of the helmet? The reason I ask is because I have had 2 icon helmets that didn't filter noise very well, and I don't like riding with ear plugs in. If you haven't had any experience with this helmet could you recommend a helmet that filters noise well. Thanks All.....:thumbup:

I have the black/Yellow GSXR RF1000. Get the RF1000. Its about as good as a helmet can get, IMO

Thanks All.....:thumbup: I'VE HAD A shoei helmet in the past and they are good,but i wear helmet speakers and you where able to hear slight wind comming threw the helmet even with the speakers in.I just purchased a shark helmet a night and day difference over shoei,they are much lighter and 1/2 the price of a shoei and they also have a better raiting. check them out

i also have the rf1000 in black and yellow i love it. i had a black one before i crashed at about 95mph and the helmet held very well so i bought another one.

I've been debating the Shoei Caster also. Almost ordered it yesterday heh.

+1 to the RF1000. I have an Arai as well and while the Arai has a more comfy liner, the 1000 filters air noise better and fits my head better. Good lid for the money!

I have the all black metallic RF-1000 and love it........I usually have headphones on while I ride too, but dont blast the music so I can still hear while I ride. Over all great helmet and fit and the price was good. :thumbup::thumbup:

I have an RF-1000, and I love mine as well. No helmet is going to filter wind noise significantly enough for you to disregard the use of earplugs. If you value your hearing - and I mean this seriously - ....you will continue to use earplugs/noise cancellation headphones.
