ok well im looking into getting a new helmet. i want a shoei tz-r. i love the comfort of it and just the way it feels. but the only thing is, the 300 dollar price tag for matte black is really pricey. im looking into maybe an icon mainframe or alliance. anyone have either one and how do they compare for comfort? im looking for a comfertable helmet at a smaller price tag. thanks

Icon is a good middle of the road helmet. But you need to go to some shops
and try different brands on not every ones head is the sane shape. So what
feels good on me may not feel good on you! with that said I had a Icon Alliance it felt good a little loud "wind noise" but all in all good Quality for the price. The viser lost its ability to stay closed after the first year when I would turn my head it would flip up.
PS. If you can afford it get the shoei great helmet
