Verified Customer Reviews for AGV K6 S
Our customers say…
Customers find the helmets to be exceptionally lightweight, providing comfort and minimal wind noise. They appreciate the excellent visibility and aerodynamic design, though some mention issues fitting glasses. Many note the durable build quality and well-functioning components. While customers would prefer a built-in sun visor, they find the visor itself versatile and recommend the helmet for its fit and design. The snug padding eliminates pressure points, enhancing long rides, making this helmet a favorite among those upgrading from budget models.

Excellent mid-range helmet 
11 Apr 2026 by Dave
Impressed with the AGV K6-S, firstly it s very light compared to other helmets at this price point, it is also well made, the vents have a decent motion and easy to use with a glove and they work well as you can feel the airflow, changing visors is easy and the ability to lock in a slightly open position is great. I found you do get a bit of buffeting at speed but this can be due to various factors. Can t really comment on noise as I use earplugs and again can vary bike to bike.
Style: Reeval White / Red / Grey

Excellent helmet, light and fantastic visibility
07 Apr 2026 by James B
I’ve been using the AGV K6 S helmet for a few weeks now, and I have to say it’s excellent. It’s incredibly lightweight, which makes longer rides much more comfortable, and the visibility is superb — I feel very aware of my surroundings at all times.
It’s not quite as quiet as my Arai Quantic, but since I always wear earplugs, that hasn’t been an issue for me at all. Overall, I’m very impressed with this helmet and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality, comfortable ride.

Double d strap and blocks out the sound of wind visors are high quality and the tint is easier to see through at night than most visors !

Sleek, light and comfortable. The cheek lining feels premium and the pin lock system is fantastic at preventing mist on the visor

Very comfortable helmet with a great fit overall. It is very light which adds to the comfort factor and styled well for my head shape. Keeps my head warm in the colder weather and the easy to use vents in gloves is a bonus when needing ventilation.

Fantastic Helmet
21 Nov 2025 by Tim S
Bought this helmet due to the SIC 58 design. Have other AGV helmets but this is by far the lightest and most comfy of them all. Would recommend a K6 S as a great purchase. Sportsbikeshop were as usual prompt with sending the helmet out once ordered.

Italian quality with the benefit of slots for the arms of glasses making for a comfy fit. Vent helps for visor steaming up once on the move. Hard to fault this helmet. Price reasonable too!

Amazing helmet
08 Oct 2025 by Jack
My first helmet I ever bought, so good. Super light compared to others, good vents to get some extra airflow in. Has speaker cut outs so can have a Cardo attached. But pricy but great helmet

Quality helmet but not as quiet as expected
03 Oct 2025 by Colin
The helmet is excellent quality and easy to use. As other reviewers have stated, the fit (medium) is a touch snug. No internal sun visor but this allows the shell size to be reduced i would guess.
The only negative is the noise level. Coming from a HJC this helmet is not as quiet. As with all helmets, you need to find a brand that suits your own head.

Didn’t get a chance to try as I bought it online. Been using it for the last 10-12 days. It’s a great product but try it before buying.

Suitable for every type of riding and all road surfaces, it incorporates the best characteristics from the sport and touring worlds and is ideal for taking on any two-wheeled challenge, from leaning into the turns on winding roads to long-range trips, by way of everyday city rides. Its carbon and aramid fibre shell ensures the very best protective performance in its category and makes it the lightest full-face road helmet in the world.
Due to the stringent AGV Extreme Safety design protocol, K6 S passes all the tests required by the strict ECE22.06 standard by a large margin, making the helmet 36% safer than the levels required by the latest road homologations.
The aerodynamic shapes developed in the wind tunnel are optimised for ideal air penetration in any riding position, making this solution perfect for riders who want the freedom to select their own riding styles, without compromise.

The superior comfort eliminate distractions and lets you focus only on the road and obstacles, throughout the journey. The premium interiors are waterproof and ventilated. They are designed so riders can cover endless miles in total comfort with only the road ahead to focus on. The innovative air vents on the forehead and chinguard are designed for easy adjustment even when wearing gloves, which means the rider always has the right amount of ventilation.
