HJC RPHA Max

Anyone got the new RPHA Max yet ? Any opinions ?

I don't own one but based on some of the vendor write ups, the lack of speaker pockets is a deal killer for me.

New Enough is offering a good deal on them.

Got the wife one. Replaced the symax 2 helmet for comparison. She likes it. Less buffing(she rides pillion) less weight. The symax would hurt her ears and had two hot spots after awhile. I did trim some fome on the symax to fit better, did not work. The rpha has no hot spots. As far as speakers holes there is not a foam cut out for them but the cheek padding has opening for the ears in which the Sena speakers fit. She has no sore ears with the rpha. She has a oval or egg shape head and the fit is perfect for her. Snug but not tight. She did like the symax but this helmet she likes a lot better.

Thanks Frank,
I wear both a Schuberth C2 and a Symax2. The C2 fits me better, but its getting about time to replace it and I just don't want to spend mucho dinero. That's why I'm intrigued by the RPHA. Good to hear the Sena speakers fit.

Based on what I saw there, I need to figure out how to make my Schuberth C2 last forever.
