I have not seen nor tried either.

I have to admit that he totally got me with the "round/intermediate-round" fit descriptions of the fit between the RF-1000 and the X-11.

Of course, I'm not a Shoei guy by nature so....

The x-11 is more oval, the RF is more round. The RF can be worn by someone with an "intermediate oval" head, but will be more comfortable on a round head.

I'd buy that. The very first helmet I bought was an RF1000. It didn't quite fit perfectly but fairly close. The X-11 was down right painful.
