I have the rf1100. I love it. If I had the cash, I would get the Qwest now.

 

It would have been nice if the Qwest had a removable liner for washing. I'm thinking of trying something called "Motorex Helmet Care Spray" on mine. Has anyone used this product?

 

I had the rf 1000 . When I up graded I bought the Quest. The quest doesn't have the airflow that the 1000 did. The 1100/1200 Have a similar system . If I were to buy another today I would go with the 1100 or 1200.

Most Cop shops sell body armor fresheners that work really well, and they kill bugs, too.

 

I have both, they do have wind noise with the shield up. The Shoei rep at the Motorcycle Show said the Qwest was for upright riding and the 1100 was more for a forward lean position like a sports bike. Al Lamb's Honda off of LBJ has both Shoei and Arai.

 

May want to consider a HJC RPS. Its about the same as the QWEST but a little lighter but not as refined per review by MWBikeweb. I would like to try the Shoei, but my head shape favors HJC so I stick to them.
