Good Points
Refined style and fit, silky liner, very comfortable.
Bad Points
After-market tinted face shield for S800 seems to have a bit of distortion. Would not blame the original helmet, though.
General Comments
Like wine and saddles, the French make a quality, luxurious helmet. The higher price of the Shark S800 Butterfly compared to some Asian brands was worth the money. I used to hate putting on my other helmet brands because no matter how well they fit they would somehow move during the ride, and my hair would get wacky as a result. This one fits so well that it never moves a milimeter, and the silky lining feels like a high-end head scarf that women wear specifically to keep their hairdo. Prissy as I must sound.
