Arai Tour X2 vs X3

[denny]

Had a quick flick through previous threads on the X3 but couldn't find anything on my query.

I've used a Tour X2 for the past 5 or so years, will now buy a Tour X3. However, as I will be ordering from the States (Arai XD3) I won't be able to try before I buy. Has anybody owned both? Are the moulds/lining the same, ie. will a medium 57/58 X3 fit me like my 57/58 X2 does?

Thanks
Denny

Also, forgot to ask...anyone know if the X2 visor fits on the X3?

Far as I understand it it's basically the VX with bits, as before, rather than a stand-alone "Tour-X" shell. The VX-3 shell is different to the VX-2, so I guess the same applies to the road lid. Can't help you with the gubbins bit though, i.e. visors and peaks and so on.

Right, for anyone that is interested I can confirm that the newer TX3 version is the same size as the previous TX2, this also goes for the American XD3.
