HJC RPHA 90 modular helmet review-love it

[VentureFar]

Hey @cowpuc look what my new best friends at UltimateMotorcycling.com bestowed on me. I distinctly heard someone say “you are friends with Puc? Then here is a $450 helmet to share an evaluation for”

So here is my story.

Spoiler alert. I like this helmet very much and will enjoy it for the next 5 years.

I have been eyeballing the RPHA 90. Think I will jump and get one. Thanks for your review. The "quiet" part and "using less volume at all speeds" helped to sell it to me.

Make sure to try it on. I used a large in scorpion exo900 and a medium in the Rpha 90.

Don’t get a matte color unless you always have clean hands.

Safe rides.

Heyyyyy,,, that's pretty good @VentureFar,, it seems like every time I hear someone say "you are friends with Puc" there is usually a traffic ticket involved ..

Yet another EXCELLENT review by my favorite MotoMagazine writer, reviewer and author = VERY WELL DONE MY BROTHER!!! :thumbsup:

Thanks. Matte colors are not for me. I want a white one and I am trying to figure out of the "pearl" version is the gloss, which is the one I want.

I have had two different HJC's recently and they both fit the same and I wear an XL them with a 61-62cm noggin. I figured the RPHA 90 would be a tight race fit in an XL (which is what I want) at the listed size of 60-61cm. If they fit the same as HJC size to size chart I think I will be okay.

 

C3 Size

 

RPHA90 size

 

 

This may be a long drawn out deal as I will have to orderlocal/mail order this helmet and hope to get it right first time around. No dealer within 300 miles of me stocks one for me to try on.

 

I also buy a second set of cheek pads and helmet liner when I get a new helmet. I am pleased to see that HJC makes these available and that my dealer and places like revzilla and helmethouse have these IN STOCK and available for purchase. Other helmet manufacturers could learn a thing or two from HJC in the excellent way HJC support their helmets.
