Let's see; I could get a $4K helmet: http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/a...-carbon-helmet, or a 99 R1 http://denver.craigslist.org/mcd/2693355848.html with the long-stroke engine.

Can you wear an R1 on your head?

for $4k that helmet better come with a midget (lightweight female type) that crawls out of a secret panel and climbs down a midget sized ladder so she can massage my balls while I ride.

Typical Arai pricing strategy........Thinking their brand name allows them to charge whatever they want, and the sheeple will still pay.

Meanwhile, their visors are a pain to install, the earpods often fall off, and the mirrored visors often develop ghost effects

for 4k I'll go buy a track bike and wear my 200 dollar scorpion :)
