Default SparX Helmet

I had to replace my Suomy after a wreck I had last November in Mexico. I didn't feel like paying as much as I did for the Suomy to replace it with another or something similar. I came across this new brand, SparX, and saw these two reviews:

Well I just got my bike back last week (slow insurance and waiting for parts >) and I've been using my new helmet. I really like this helmet! Way lighter than my Suomy and the quality is very good [thumbsup]. I got the red Corsa model and it goes great with my red monster. I got mine at Helmet Harbor for 129.95. I highly recommend this helmet and you can't beat the price! Also check out their replacement program if you get in a wreck. If your looking for a high quality helmet for a reasonable price this is it.

That is a good deal! How are the aerodynamics? Any wobble at speed? How about turning your head at speed?

I also have a sparx helmet. I have the griffin one, it has a rubberized flat graphics on it. it fits well, is light, comes with two shields, looks awesome, noise is OK, aerodynamics are excellent also. I got mine for about 130 bucks. I love it.

+ 1 on the aerodynamics. Way less drag than my Suomy when moving my head side to side. Add to that the lightness and there is a big improvement over my Suomy. Minimal wobble.
