Flashy crashy hatty

Very pleased with this lid. It's well constructed, a comfortable fit, nice soft lining, and well ventilated. It's easy to put on if you wear glasses like I do, you can open the front and put it on without having to remove your specs. Important to note, I also wear a thin balaclava. That helps too, but the flip front is a major plus. The graphics are nice and bright, (hence the flashy in the title) The pin lock visor (included, yaay) is interesting to fit. I am going to have to take it off and reposition it, the top edge of it intrudes in my line of vision, but it stops a lot of the fogging. Would have given 5 stars, except for the noise factor, as with all helmets it's important to wear ear plugs, as over 50 it gets a bit noisy. Was hoping it might have been quieter, but in any case it's a lot quieter than the shark d-skwal I was using before. And an infinitely better fit. All in all a good buy.

Cool helmet

Great helmet. Fits really well with a good depth of cheek foam. There are plenty of openings to allow air to circulate. The ratchet strap is great. My only criticism is the pinlock - the second pinlock "visor" is smaller than the helmet visor so you constantly see a line above your view on to the road.

Full marks

Delighted with this thing. Don't have much to compare with beyond my old Shoei, but it fits me well, no wind noise that I've noticed over the exhausts at legal speeds, and I love the sun visor. Noticeably less twist on the neck when looking over shoulders, way plusher than the comparable HJC. Vents, a demist visor opening latch & a pinlock - all good. Criticisms... 'only' a 4 Sharp rating and the pinlock seal ends up in my line of sight when my jacket collar pushes it forward. They look much better in the flesh than the photos too.
