Akira here, I'm the type who looks past graphics to the substance, but the Z-9 is a full-face with a solidly built shell. The BURNSIDE's stripes aren't too thick, and I think the color scheme works equally well for men's and women's gear — that's the right call. Want to check the actual colors in person come October.

Retro meets modern design — a nice balance that feels like it'll stay fresh for years.

SHOEI's new graphics always get people talking before they even launch — shows how much attention they draw.

SHOEI's graphic models have always been a bit hit-or-miss, so I'm looking forward to seeing how this one turns out.

The Z-9 itself is already on the pricier side, so more color options just makes the decision harder.

Four colorways, October launch — timing it with the season feels very SHOEI.

Agonizing over color choices is half the fun, but it's rough on the wallet.

Retro stripes on a modern shell — it's just a design that makes you want one.

Every new graphic makes me want one, but my helmet replacement cycle is way too fast at this point.
