LS2 Rapid III - Cyberg Purple / Cyan Really love the design of this helmet! Comfortable with padding. Fits my head shape well. I like the quick release fastening. Has the mechanism to apply pinlock. Annoyingly it’s difficult to wear my glasses with the helmet, although it does have a gap for the frames. It would be better if it had a tinted visor option to protect from the sun. I find it easy to get on and off.
HJC F100 - Plain Titanium It does what it says on the tin, opening and closing is easy and the visors work well. The only downside is wind in the eyes at over 40 MPH with the chin guard up, it becomes very uncomfortable very quickly, also the XL is slightly bigger than the sizing guide suggests. Otherwise a good lid
LS2 Rapid III - Flow White / Grey Nice looking helmet fits really well looks better than I expected and really happy with the service from the sportsbikeshop. will certainly shop here again
Shoei Neotec 3 - Grasp TC3 Great quality helmet as you would expect from Shoei.
Sena Phantom Intercom Helmet - Matt Black Helmet is really comfortable and true to size.. the sena Comms is fantastic as I ride in both a group and as an individual. I am a senna cooms fan and run the smh10r on my tourex 4 .. so this helmet is for my HD SportsterS... Not overly keen on internal visors as I wear glasses but have order a tinted visor from Germany... The lights I thought were a bit faddy but actually the front light is mega helpful if getting home at night .. really slick lid .. love the intergraded Comms hence why I bought it .. well don't sena
Scorpion Exo-1500 Carbon Air - Matt Black Tried on a lot of helmets over a few visits and kept coming back to this helmet for its tight but comfortable fit with easy adjustments and weight wind noise acceptable even on motorways
Schuberth C5 - Globe Grey I was torn between the C5 and a Neotec 3. After a lot of research I handed on the C5. Couldn't be happier with the decision. You can feel the premium make from the padding, reduced wind noice and overall comfort. I also installed the Sena Mesh intercom. The inbuilt speaker sound quality is awesome and in general I find it very easy to use the controls on the move. Haven't used in heavy rain just yet but I have no doubt it will hold-up fine. Used it in 35 degree heatwave and the ventilation on this helmet is amazing, didn't feel too much discomfort even with that level of heat. The flip front is also very easy to use. The sun visor is very easy to use and great quality.
Only think I struggled with, the helmet does not have any visible ECE or quality kite mark either inside or outside. However, I was assured by Sportsbikeshop that the helmet is legit and I shouldn't have any issues riding with it in the UK or EU.
