Top customer reviews of Shoei X-Spirit 3
- Shoei X-Spirit 3 – Matt Black 6 layer AIM+ shell construction Multiple density EPS liner Double lock CWR-F visor Emergency Quick Release System Tear-off and Pinlock ready visor 4 shell sizes Adjustable interior for optimised fit Fully removable and washable interior Multiple intake and extract vents Spoilers and turbulators for improved aerodynamics The Shoei X-Spirit 3 is Shoei’s flagship race helmet. Its shape, performance and ventilation have all been created from know-how in race series such as MotoGP. The space around the mouth has been enlarged to ease breathing difficulty, the new adjustable internal system allows the rider to adjust the angle of the helmet to correspond to the current riding position. The 2-D CWR-F visor is both Pinlock and tear-off ready and there is now a double lock mechanism to reduce the chance of the visor opening unexpectedly. The X-Spirit 3 has 6 air intakes and 6 exhaust vents; including cheek pad ventilation which has massively improved air ventilation whilst being worn. As with previous models, the X-Spirit 3 uses Shoei’s EQRS system allowing the cheek pads to be removed easily in the event of a crash. All helmets are supplied with a clear visor as standard

When we buy new bike kit, there’s tons of different aspects that we take into account to decide if it’s right for us. If it’s a helmet or other protective clothing we obviously want great quality and safety. If it’s an exhaust we want it to sound great, if it’s a part for our bike we of course want it to be durable. That’s why it’s really important for us to read reviews before we make a purchase on bike kit.

Shoei X-Spirit 3 Review
The best reviews that we can read are those from actual customers. Whilst the expert or magazine reviews are great, they don’t tend to give you as much information as a whole load of customers that have tried and used the product for a much longer period and in different circumstances. For example if you were looking to buy a waterproof bike jacket, you want to read reviews from customers that have worn it for a year and can give you the honest opinion on how waterproof it is after a year. Likewise you want to know that products like Shoei X-Spirit 3 live up to the manufacturer and shop descriptions. We scored Shoei X-Spirit 3 9.7 out of 10, and customers at SportsBikeShop scored it 5 out of 5, thanks to the 6 customer reviews.
There are of course many factors that can affect the review score of a product, which can vary from the perception of the brand or product right through to the actual usability, quality and price. One of our best pieces of advice when you’re shopping for products in the null category, or any RiDE Recommended & Best Buy Products products for that matter, is to consider reading plenty of the detailed customer reviews before you buy. Often the review score can help you to make a quick judgement as to how good a product is, but to really get to know if it’s right for you, you need to read lots of the reviews to find out what users are saying about it, good and bad.
Price was the other factor that we mentioned, and that has become increasingly important when we are buying products online, regardless if its motorbike kit or a toothbrush, we want to get a good deal. So be sure to shop around but it’s important that you buy from a retailer that you can trust. As a guide you should expect to be paying roughly £599.99 for Shoei X-Spirit 3 as that is the RRP price. SportsBikeShop sell it at £599.99 at the moment which is great. Anything massively under this should raise alarm bells, especially as SportsBikeShop offer a price match promise.
Shoei X-Spirit 3 Alternatives
We found that there are a total of 207 Shoei products, and 3911 null available from SportsBikeShop. So we understand that it’s difficult to make decisions when there’s just so much choice. The first thing to do is to write yourself a set of criteria that you want from the product. For example if it’s a helmet you may want a 5 star SHARP rating, if it’s a jacket you may want it to be waterproof and have a removable lining. Use these criteria to help you filter out the products that won’t meet your needs. At that point you can start comparing based on price and reviews.
Another critical part of discovering a new product before you buy it is video. So many brands and customers post video reviews of bike kit online, on websites like YouTube, these reviews are priceless as they show you a hands-on use of the product. We would encourage you to spend a bit of time watching some video reviews of Shoei X-Spirit 3. It’s also worth exploring more photos of the product too, you can find these on Google.
