Default Helmets matching Ducati red

I'm in the market for a new helmet and want to get red to match the monster. I've been wearing a Shoei RF-1000 and I'd like another one, but it looks like they only have a matte red and a glossy wine red. I'm doing my searching online so it's hard to tell the exact shades. So, who can tell me which brands have a red that closely matches the Ducati red (or which have reds that don't match)?

I have a Ducati factory helmt made Suomy in size L. It matches the red exactly. It doesn't fit my head shape so I changed over to Arai. It's in great shape and available for sale.

I've got a Shoei RF 1000 in the Monza Red. Matches my S2R perfectly.

Matte Finish? Not the Monza Red. It's shiny and looks to have a glossy color.

Did you buy the Suomy on line?


Cause I personally wouldn't buy a helmet without trying it on, and if it didn't fit right, I wouldn't buy it.
