I bought this helmet after trying it on at a dealership in NYC; I use this helmet with my 2007 Triumph Bonneville. The first thing I liked about this helmet is the fit and finish, its top-notch! I'm not a big fan of graphics and jazzy colours, I wanted a solid coloured helmet, but I really like the matte black or rubber type finish which I personally find complementary to the finish and colour of my motorcycle (silver grey with lots of chrome). Additionally, the matte finish also doesn't attract finger prints which makes maintenance a lot easier.

In use, I find the helmet to be light and the fit to be excellent. The lining material used inside seems to be of very good quality and does an excellent job of wicking away moisture even on a hot day. The hottest day I rode was in 80 deg F temperature and when I removed the helmet I barely had any sweat on me. This is great as it also prevents the sweat from getting into your eyes. The ventilation system seems to be pretty effective, however I haven't played around much with it. I generally keep the forehead vent open and the chin vent closed as it provides the best balance for free-way riding. In terms of noise, to be honest I can't comment since I don't have anything to compare this helmet to, but the helmet certainly doesn't keep out all the wind noise. When riding at about 85mph on the NJ Turnpike, the wind noise is pretty strong, but not too bad. Based on other reviews I've read online, it seems this is pretty normal for helmets in this class unless you get a top of the shelf helmet. Lastly, the helmet uses the standard double d-ring strap with an additional button on the end to fasten the slack end of the strap. A really nice feature to prevent the strap from slapping you in the wind.

Overall, for the price paid, I'm very satisfied with this helmet and would definitely recommend it to anyone that's considering it.
