Also, it is light weight, Chin curtain, Breath guard included.
Also it has a" Flip up" jaw that closely securely.

Guess i am the only one here that likes the Bell SRT modular series. For me it fits, quiet, good quality, not the lightest but far from the heaviest, etc. Many reasons to like a modular style helmet.
As far as the DOT, SNELL, etc. debate goes. I simply don't care. I feel I am better protected than any half, three quarter or in some States nothing while not compromising my comfort.
If I have to be uncomfortable while doing this.....then why in the heck am I doing it?
What do the modular ones weight currently? I'm in the damaged neck category, and the heavy helmet syndrome not only makes me have pain, but stuff on my body goes numb and quits working!

i don't know actual weight but i tried a bell and a harley brand, they were both a lot heavier than the full face generic i wear sometimes in the winter , i couldn't stand either one, might be lighter ones out there but i'm not wasting any more money on them
I wear a Scorpion modular and love it! Light weight for a full helmet, integrated drop down sun shield (as well as the clear) that is the perfect level of sun protection, great ear speaker pockets, comfortable with glasses.... and got it at half price late in the season so it didn't cost me more than some of the cheap crapola ones.
You can't get there from here....

I have the Bell SRT series and also really like it, tho I admit I bought it because of the color. I hd a Bell Revolver before and liked the way it fit.

we ryde since 10 years - 50.000 miles with the GIVI Modular always the last modell - not so noise than most of the flip-ups - fast & easy to change the front .. together they fit in each small one-helmet case - would not change ..(this was the official BRP Can-Am helmet a time ago - called ST1)
Outlander fairing - Fox-shock - BajaRon Swaybar - Hankook tire/ back - 165/50 Imperial tires front & longer front shocks - GIVI Topase - Shad sidecases -heated grips - new seats
I have a Scorpion EXO AT950 modular and really like it. I use it primarily for fall trips and cooler weather. I have a HJC IS33 II that is my summer touring lid. That said, I also use 1/2, 3/4 and full face helmets

I have the Fulmer Modular, you have to buy them in person so they can be fitted properly that way, not even sure they are even in business anymore with the no internet thing.

Modular for me. When I returned to riding motorcycles in 2000 after a 20 year hiatus I managed to get two Nolans as part of the deal. I tried on several different brands and sizes at the dealership and found the Nolan fit me better than any of them. I chose modular over full-face because none of the FF worked with wearing eye glasses. I have continued with modular on the Spyder when we got it in Oct. 2017.
Have you ever noticed that other than comfort, fit, and style, the only folks that can actually comment on a helmets performance (other than testing labs) are those that have been in the worst kind of accident where their melon actually hits something? I find it's also pretty hard to find an accurate weight of a helmet for the most part.

[QUOTE=Martin Slovakia;1427308]Guys,
ever since I have became spYder rYder I did have a modular helmet.
This spring was the time when I have changed the Schuberth C3 Pro for new C4 Pro
How about you, do you rYde with modular or regular helmets.???
I have a full face helmet but it bothers my sunglasses when I wear them.

I have the SRT as well. I don't like that it has no detents.

the helmets i think are heavy, some people wear and say they are comfortable, i don't think actual lbs counts for much, the bell revolver i had and harley brand modular were so heavy*to me*, that i couldn't ride for 30 minutes in comfort. it could be from riding for years with a half helmet , honestly if i were afraid of riding with a half helmet i wouldn't be riding anyway, for the most part a modular is a false sense of security anyway and this is JUST IN MY OPINION. i'e seen a few wrecks and known a lot of wreck victims and really don't know of any where a better helmet would have helped. again my opinion and only talking about people i personally know not internet searches.
And I loved my Bell Revolver. It was one of the most comfortable helmets I ever owned. I have been down twice resulting in Massive helmet damage and both times my head survived. Both Modular, The Bell Revolver, and an HJC, don't remember which one. I guess that's why there are so many different types.

I wear a HJC FG Jet. It's a 3/4 face. The reason I like it: the shield coverage gets the entire face, down to the chin. I found that modulars and full face helmets didn't seem to provide as much space to peer out of that 3/4 and 1/2 helmets do. Most 3/4 and 1/2 helmets don't have the chin protection, but the Jet's shield goes down to the chin. My last get-off, the Spyder was totaled, the helmet was totaled, but I got away with broken ribs and a mild concussion. As soon as I decided to ryde again, I bought the exact same helmet.
~Sandee~
I totally agree with Sandee's post on the 3/4 helmet! The visibility is so much better and is a high priority for me. The shield coverage of the entire face is something I like and there is nothing else in the way of my vision. It blocks the wind and flips up when needed. They are usually light and comfortable. I also wear glasses with no problem. Just my two cents.
As soon as I saw the modular option I was hooked having had full face helmets all my life. While I don't ride with the chin bar open, I like the convenience of the chin opening when stopped. I am a "sometimes" glasses wearer and do find it easier to put them on.
As a side note, the full enclosure of the helmet is great in winter and when talking via bluetooth, but I haven't been able to work out how to get the mouthpiece for my camelbak into the "headspace".
