HELMET CHOICE

[FlaBound]

I usually wear a Bell Pit Boss, but bought a Shoei Neotech for cold weather riding. I tried on several different modulars, and ended up with the neotech.
It boiled down to a choice between the Schuberth and the Shoei modulars.

This is my first modular, and don't have anything to compare it to. But so far, I'm very pleased. Very good quality, and comfortable.

I personally like the HJC Line of 3/4 helmets with a sun-visor and face shield. Full Face Modular was just too tight for me to easily put on my glasses or to take them off. For what ever reason the HJC Line up never gave me much of a problem with the glasses. Check out the HJC IS-33 helmet.

Good luck---everyone has their opinions and feelings on helmets--but like my instructor said in my MSF class----the BEST HELMET is one YOU WILL WEAR! PERIOD!

I have the HJC IS33 also and love it BUT since Their Production date is 2009 I am replacing it with this Bell Mag 9 which without the peak thingyy is just like it but produced in 2012!! I have 4 other helmets because there like shoes and a woman for me?:roflblack:

:agree: This is what I ended up with for a 3/4 helmet. I tried a dozen helmets and they just did not fit well and I was not able to get my glasses back on. It seems the front foam wraps around to the front so much that the ear piece can't slide by without making a big bend. This seemed to leave the glasses tilted at odd angles if I was able to force them on at all. I have a full face modular Z1R Eclipse for winter riding but it does not fit as tight as it should. I wear a baklava with it which snugs it up nice.
