    The Shoei rep at the Motorcycle Show said "Show-ee" with the empasis on "show".

    Take a moment to picture yourself as Mike Meyers............then picture your favorite actress or supermodel............

    Ready?

    "SHA-WING" is the way it should be pronounced if in the correct mindset.

    "SHA-WING" is the way it should be pronounced if in the correct mindset.
    There was a BMW dealer in Baltimore called Schwing BMW. During the time of, and shortly after "Wayne's World" came out their
    sign kept getting stolen!

    I believe Zgrand is right, I've heard it pronounced Show-ee on rider interviews and such when referring to their sponsors.
    But if you sat Shoe-ee people still know what you are talking about.

    Just Ask

    Mr. Shoei.

    That's right, Mr. Joe Shoei. He's the long-lost twin brother of Joe Isuzu.

    Let me venture to guess that Joe Shoei will claim that his helmets will protect you in a full-on head crash at mach 3 and will keep you completely safe if a 50 ton weight fell directly on it....
