Hi Catherino,
Don't know much about Marushin helmets, sorry. I have a Shoei and have been looking on Shoei website at the XR-1100. That helmet has more peripheral vision than other models and is designed for sports touring (so they say).
PS........your English is probably a LOT better than my Portuguese or Spanish!!!

I got the Shoei XR1100, replaced my XR1000 that got hit in my accident.
Positive things
Better ventilation, the XR1000 was already good but this is better Better vision, pinlock is now on the outer edges of the visor so you can see 95% of what you normally see without a helmet on. A+ on that one! Removable inner linings. Unlike the XR1000 you can finally take out the inner lining and clean it properly.
Negative/Neutral
Noise/whistling noise is about the same or worse at particular speeds. I find it noisier above 130kph then the XR1000. Weight increase by 100grams, but I dont notice this.
