Nice Helmet Overall

By L8nliferydr

from Saint Peters, MO on 4/17/2007

Sizing:

Feels half size too small

Pros:

Good Visibility, Lightweight

Cons:

Poor Ventilation, Prone To Fogging

Best Uses:

Everyday Rides, Passenger, Protection

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The price is excellent for the helmet. I am a first time rider so my experience is limited. I would say that it needs additional venting to improve the fogging that can occur. I simply lift the visor slightly and it clears up while providing protection but this is not necessary at higher speeds. Also, the helmet fits nice around the crown of my head but the padding squeezes my face a little too much. Good overall helmet that hopefully will never be fully tested :-)

Cons:

Chin strap not securable, Had to modify to secure, Strap, Suggest snap on end of, With standard rubber band

Best Uses:

Everyday Rides, Passenger, Poor Weather, Protection

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

i am satisfied with product dont get me wrong. i would love to see a button(quick snap) on the end of the strap. the helmet does have a tendanncy to fog when i breath out. so anti fog is a question for me as far as the different element change or breathing? fogs when i breath, however the change in element does not affect it.
