well i got my yesterday, and i like how it fits, but it think is a lil bit tight on the forhead but everywhere else fits to nice. its a lot quieter than my rf1000 only thing diffrent is that i have to lift up the helmet off my head instead of rolling it back (front to back) as i do with shoei. visor is very good during the day blocks lots of light but at night is a lil haard to see. all in all good helmet, and only paid 350 for it but thats just my .02 cent anyone else can chyme in on this

350??? where'd you get that, i've been looking into getting one...any pics?

slvrblckrr · Sep 1, 2006

Is it the normal bostrom, or the tattoo? Either way, lets see some pictures. Suomy's always look different in pictures. I'm awaiting my bostrom tattoo that i got for $400 shipped.

I picked up my Bostrom Tat a few weeks ago for $370. Here are some pics:

ebay bay, god bless ebay!!! nah its the reg heres a pic of it

playero_loko · Sep 1, 2006

i had won 2 of them b/c i had made a best offer to one seller and the days grace time had almost gone by, so i made another best offer to somebody else and when next day came around they had both taken my best offer... even asked around the forum if somebody wanted to buy the other one, so just to ebay and make a best offer to anybody, forget some of the 2forum seller they'll never give it to you for that price!!!

You guys are making me want to buy another one. And I agree with you about the tightness in the forehead.

Yo, CALL Nick from MRI, I think he can beat those prices easily.

I just purchased the Bostrom Tattoo from MRI yesterday. Where did you get it for $370? Is that shipped?

hitman83 · Sep 2, 2006

that looks good...real good

slvrblckrr · Sep 2, 2006

damn, now i can't wait till my tattoo gets here. I ordered from MRI and they said my size was backordered until sept. 8th. Gives me something to look forward to while i'm here at school. Until then i'll just keep rocking the RF-1000. Thanks for posting pictures Danthony

i called him once asking for an arata that other vendor had for less than him asked him to match it AND SAID NAH! so i dont go there no more...

some prices we can match or EASILY BEAT... and some we cannot. it's like this for every retail business. for those that we cannot... we try our best to make up for it in other ways (deals on other items, free S&H, and EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE, NO BS, and HONESTY).

cheers... nick - mri

Nick and Andrew are awesome guys. I gladly give them my business even if their price might be higher than others. So far all they've done is save me money.

efinit · Sep 2, 2006

Not to continue off-topic, but Nick is a great guy, and as a matter of fact, when I bought my Arata, he had the best price, so that just proves his point.

i wasnt trying to say anything bad about it, but i seemed like you didnt even want to hear you know, and then you never mention anything of what you just said... (free s/h other deals cus serv) so for that you got respect bro:rocker:

g35kid · Sep 3, 2006

playero_loko · Sep 3, 2006
