Reviews HJC's range overhaul continues with their new mid-priced sports-touring lid...

A great helmet at a great price, promptly dispatched and delivered quickly and securely. The additional information on the packaging is really useful with a QR code link explaining fitting and sizing your helmet. The website is easy to navigate making for an easy purchase. Very happy with mind so far.
Fit lovely felt good till I started doing longer rides and became unbearable
Sportbikeshop come in with another great saving. £100 off RRP! Yes please.
New to biking but the amount of description was enough to sway me.
Helmet fits perfectly, good sizing and overall comfort/weight.
Pin lock is an added bonus. Build quality and materials are superb.
Great service, from ordering through to delivery all to time and very quick, the HJC i71 was very good value and size was perfect, very comfortable
My wife loved it!
I have always purchased HJC helmets and this was a good 22.06, 4* sharpe rated helmet. My old helmet was too old.
Fit is As expected, quality feels extremely high considering the price point. The vents are the best I have seen of HJCs and the helmet is also the quietest HJC I have owned.
The Pinlock lock however, once installed stopped the visor from closing all the way (the latch wouldn't lock due to Pinlock sitting proud of the visor indentation.
This was a simple fix by sanding down the edge of the pin-lock insert but ofcourse, I shouldn't be expected to do this.
10/10 helmet and clearly tested highly without Pinlock. If you are comfortable doing a bit of DIY to the Pinlock insert then sobeit but this was surprising considering HJC have never let me down after rising for 12 years.
As always, SBS is top notch.
Its very light and comfortable . I don't feel it has as wide a field of vision as my Shark helmets .
It has front and top vents . The front vent for demisting visor is not so good . This may be as I have a tall screen , not sure .
It does come with pin-lock and the anti fog insert, at the price that's very good .
Tried another brand first and internal sun visor did not clear glasses. This one is great, size XL is spot-on and correct size for myself as expected. Air vents allow a good flow of fresh air which is essential in this weather. There have been comments from others not overly happy with the operation of the sun visor but again I can’t fault it even with heavy gloves it’s spot-on. And noise is decidedly less than the lid I just fished with.
This helmet is exactly what I wanted as it’s stylish but subtle. Comfortable from first day which was 4 hours wear and the sun visor is in a convenient position and place to comfortably use with and without gloves. Pin lock easy to install and adjustable straps on closure mechanism feels safe and secure and easy to unlock when taking helmet off again. Excellent quality helmet and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for comfort, safety and style.
Very comfy , not noisy and great colour scheme
A bit noisy but nothing major. Pin lock & Anti foger visor included what is a plus.
This is a reasonably lightweight helmet but does come with quite a bit of road noise. Not an issue for me as I wear earplugs all the time. The vent at the top does not completely seal so there's always a slight draft of cold air coming over the top of your head. Not ideal for a bald man! Still, it's reasonably priced and comfortable otherwise.
Bought this to replace my old HJC helmet, so I knew the quality would be good. (This is my 3rd HJC helmet!) I bought the same size as my 2 previous HJC helmets, which is S or 55-56. The helmet is a good fit and the M was too loose, however my first couple of outings have shown that the cheek pads are slightly too tight to be comfortable on long rides. I've attempted to purchase thinner cheek pads as interchangeable pads are mentioned as a highlight of this helmet in the instructions, however these are proving impossible to get hold of in the UK, so bear this in mind if like me you're planning on swapping out the pads for a comfier fit.
The visor lift has moved to the side rather than being in the middle and this works well. The sun visor lever has also moved from being on top to being at the side of the chin. I have found this a little fiddly to use, especially when you're riding in cold weather and are wearing a neck buff and hooded top! Would recommend practicing operating the sun visor lever while stationery so that it becomes easier to use when riding.
The pinlock was easy to install and I've also installed the HJC comms system, which fits very neatly into the spaces provided.
I really like the look of this helmet. I wanted something a bit pretty and girly but most of the ladies helmets use bright pink and crazy patterns, this is much more subtle and stylish in my opinion! The chin strap is also really good quality and very comfortable. Definitely recommend this helmet.
Helmet is amazing, it was bought as a gift and the recipient can't wait. The helmet seems like great quality, and has plenty of features you'd want and has the added bonus of being 22.06 rated. Sportsbikeshop service was flawless as ever!
I was more excited actually that this actually exists as I looked everywhere for a stitch helmet and never found one and when I saw it I immediately bought it and it fits amazing it's beautiful and perfect
Sturdy, soft and its great quality and very reliable and trusty brand itself
Nice comfortable lid, a bit of low frequency noise but nothing major.
Had better helmets, had worse.
Perfect size I've got a medium helmet. Comfortable in liner and straps . Pin lock & Anti foger visor included what is a plus in my books. It is one of the quietest helmets I've had and
I can't wait to try it with the hjc 21b smart intercom when I get it.
Probably one of the best quality helmets I've bought, sun visor is always an added bonus.
Find it cheaper at any major motorcycle accessory retailer, online or in-store and we‘ll match it.
