Nice helmet for dry weather riding only
03 Sep 2026 by Dave G
A very nice looking, comfortable fit however it comes with some serious design flaws.
The helmet fits large, I take a Large in 99% of other helmets I've had before, but a Simpson Medium fitted generously. In all honesty, the helmet is all about the looks and for riding in dry weather only as when it rains, water pours in through the fixed open vents directly above the visor. Significant amounts of water run inside the helmet and straight onto the visor which is extremely dangerous . This was a serious problem when riding in persistent rain light and very quickly got to the stage I had to stop and take the whole visor off to clear the rain from the inside visor.
Apart from appearance, this is a very over priced limited helmet and I would absolutely only recommend it for summer, dry weather riding.

The helmet is all about looks and boy does it look great build quality is good although it does come up big in size and padding is sparse but who cares when you look this good, just consider going a size smaller than your normal fit another note a big thanks to sportsbikeshop
