I found these while browsing Japanese websites (only in Japan). Cool but expensive @ approx.$500

Sorry, it does sound kind of bad when I put it that way.  What I meant was that I would ruin it by wearing it every day in all manner of nasty weather, bugs, etc.  |

 How do you guys remove the white marks rocks leave behind. Those are some sexy helmets, I dont know if I could spend that much. Although, Ive never tried on a shoei. I typically go for a helmet with a snell rating and that feels good on my head and wallet.

That is a really nice helmet. I'm so cheap that I would have no choice but to wait until it ended up on the closeout section though.  |

http://j-mart.biz/j-parts/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2_27_158_1529Unless indicated specifically, Shoei helmets listed on J-Parts are conformed to Japanese regulations and standards only.
These helmets are for use in Japan and usage outside of Japan will not be subject to the manufacturer's product liability. 50,000 yen = $615.88

I believe the coating on helmets is a type of clear coat. As long as the scratches and nicks aren't too deep, then you should be able to remove them with a rubbing compound and wax.
