Arai Does It Again
My new Signet replaces my beloved Profile that was retired after 5+ years of service. I was very nervous about finding a replacement helmet when Arai dropped the Profile. The folks at Revzilla were very helpful and assured me that my oval noggin would fit in the new Signet. I couldn't be more happy with it. The graphics are awesome as usual and the fit was spot on once I removed the peel away foam from the top padding. (Great addition for fine tuning the fit). I would highly recommend this helmet and it is definitely worth the money.

First Helmet
I was very weary of the price being the high cost of being a new rider needing a full set of gear. HELMETS KEEP YOU ALIVE. This being said I felt I shouldn't skimp. I am so glad I didn't. It fits spectacularly and has a lot of amazing features I didn't even realize till I bought it. Crazy customizable vent system which is amazing. I also have a very small head (I'm female) and it fits better than ANY other helmet (I tried em all). BUY THIS HELMET! You will not be disappointed :)

Arai Products are the Best
I have owned an Arai helmet before. I tried another helmet last year.
This year I came back to Arai because of the fit and wide vision and air flow vents. I like all the safety features. The comfort of the Signet-Q is awesome as I don't have a round head!
Don't think another helmet will ever fit me as well as Arai will!!

Love this helmet
I previously wore a more round-shaped model from another brand in size XL (the correct size for my measurement). I noticed that it fit perfectly snug front to back, but had quite a bit of space on the sides. Clearly my head shape was more narrow/long oval than I realized when I bought my old helmet. I tried the Arai Signet-Q and found that I was able to go down to a size L and the helmet fits PERFECTLY in all dimensions. It's lightweight, very well made with high quality materials, and looks great. It's quieter than my old helmet as well.
Some people complain about the Arai system for swapping out the visor, but if you follow the instructional video on Revzilla, it's very easy to get the hang of...it's all about learning the technique. I swap between the clear visor and silver mirrored visor several times per week, very simple. I've even been able to swap them without removing the helmet.
Highly recommend.

Great Helmet fits great
Very comfortable helmet. I always felt pressure from any other helmet I wore on my forehead - this fits my long head - very happy with this purchase. Was great to go to revzilla in Philly and try this on - great selection of helmets

It's All About Fit
I've been wearing the Shoei RF-1100 in Medium for a little over a year now. I recently attended and Arai factory demo day at a local dealership and ended up trying on various models. My head measures 57cm or just a tad over which puts me in the Medium range according to their sizing chart. The Medium for the Signet Q was too big. The small fit snug and comfortable. The only complaint I have is with the chin strap cover. It needs to be 10-15mm longer. While it was not a reason for me to not buy the helmet, it is the only part of the helmet that is not comfortable. I'm assuming after a few hundred miles or several weeks of wearing it the strap will soften up a bit. Other than that, great helmet.
I was surprised that the small fit so well. If you are considering the Signet Q, you might want to size down if you are on the borderline with their sizing chart. As the Arai rep told me," if between sizes, go smaller.."

The right fit for me
I was not aware that I had a long oval head shape, but I must because this helmet is super comfortable to wear for me. I had a Shoei Quest before this and it was ok but not near as long ride comfortable as this helmet. Really like the pin lock shield also, zero fogging. I have ridden in 50 degrees to 85 degrees so far and I found that you really know it when you open the vents up. Air flow is very good but it makes the helmet a bit louder when open, which I would expect. Overall I find the helmet to be very quiet. More money than I wanted to spend on a helmet but I am pretty happy with it.

The best helmet i've owned -not to mention, the coolest looking!
The SigQ's light weight construction, coupled with the aesthetics of the air flow/vent system, and sleek design in general (the frost black is pretty awesome) is impeccable! I definitely would recommend this helmet!
