Full Face Helmets

Worth the money

I wanted to replace my old K4 and this seemed to fit the brief. It is slightly different. The internal padding is different and whilst not as comfortable, it is absolutely fine. This version is also slightly noisier on the road. It feels slightly lighter (in a good way) and hopefully does what it needs to do! All in all, worth the money I paid and no real complaints. Delivered with no fuss.

Good for the money

First off, this is a very nice looking and comfortable helmet. The sizing is quite accurate and feels quite lightweight when out on the bike. But this is a budget helmet and has its downsides. Firstly, over 40mph the wind noise really is quite loud. This could be overcome by using ear plugs if you find it annoying. (Popular solution). Secondly, I find it fogs up very easily even with the visor cracked open a little bit. There are tips & tricks to overcome this but Pinlock insert is not an option here. I feel this is a good helmet for a new rider especially scooter or 125 where speeds are not going to be very high. MT do have a good reputation ( this helmet scores 4 out 5 on the Sharp test). Nice helmet bag included.

Cheek pads

It's a brilliant helmet and fits superbly, but only after having paid more that one tenth of the purchase price for some smaller cheek pads, to make it fit superbly! I've now got a pair of brand new cheek pads that I'll never use, but ironically, wouldn't have bought the helmet without this possibility. Surely some scope for a part exchange system?
