    I've had mine for over a year now doing daily local runs (town riding). I have to say it was a bit uncomfortable at first but settled down very nicely. The piping underneath is nearly all gone and the plastic trim in that area also doesn't want to pop back in flush (not a problem really). I love mine, cheap but it's great (black & orange). All the best :)

    You didn't mention anything about the noise level, although a bit relative and subjective, it's an important aspect of a good helmet. More ventilations sometimes means more noise !?

    • @IdealBike
      @IdealBike  4 года назад +4

      Hi there, thanks for bringing up this topic! It's an entry level helmet and the noise level it's OK until 110 Km/h. Starting from this speed the noise level it's increasing. Nevertheless, with all ventilations closed the noise level it's quite acceptable. What I've discovered it's that some noise comes also from the back spoiler, I would have preferred this helmet without it!
      Hope it helps, greetings!

      To be honest, our eyes and vision are the most important when we ride the motorcycle, I would not make a compromise on this side. I am sure that there is a quality difference, so I personally would buy a certified visor. Hope that helps, greetings!

    I'm not so impressed with the pinlock insert (probably gt2) on my K1 (Mir). The upper line of the insert (very noticeable) sits right on the area where I'm looking up the road. Why do they make such a small pinlock for this model greatly reducing/obstructing the view in my opinion. My much lower priced helmet has a far better pinlock that covers almost the whole lower, upper section of the visor.

  • @bluebird7108
    @bluebird7108 4 года назад +1

    You can't really install pinlock on the smoke and mirror visor since the mounting point is further away than the clear visor. It's basically there for a show. That's what dissapoint me about this helmet

    • @IdealBike
      @IdealBike  4 года назад +1

      To be honest it's a slim helmet, especially on the sides it's narrow. My head it's round oval and it's a bit tight but it's not uncomfortable at all because of the comfortable interior. To answer your question I would say Intermediate Oval. Hope that helps. Greetings!

The top part of the helmet that comes in the crown of the head is fastened in 4 staples up in front where the visor is, it is fastened in a hedgehog. Every time I put the helmet on my head, that part of the sponge comes off the hedgehog and moves, even if the hedgehog is still good. does this happen to you too?
