I must’ve watched hours and hours of motorcycle reviews on RUclips but this is the most objective, well presented review I’ve ever watched. King regards from Barcelona!
Hi Tony. Watched this a little while ago. Was looking for a new helmet and rather fancied this AGV. Bought one and not disappointed. I ride a T Tiger 900 GT Pro. With the Puig touring screen this is a very quiet helmet. I’m 6’. Tried the original screen and a Givi screen but not as good. Hopefully of interest to any GT 900 owners. Thanks for the review. For me very helpful. 👍
I like my Sport Modular, but I hate that my chin is constantly on the chin bar. I don't like that so many helmets are built for integrated SENA coms, but I like the Cardo, way better. So, I order it. Thanks for your review.
My first helmet was a Frank Tomas flip helmet from J&S. This needs renewing this time I'll go SportsBike Shop. At £450 its a good choice and they do Klana. This time for the max size of 2XL. Like the Blue. Thank You for the video.
Awesome video, you convinced me to try this helmet. I started with a size small (same size as my Shoei Neotec) and had to return and get a size XS. This helmet feels great, light weight and I can't wait to go riding now. Thanks!
I can chuck a bit in here having owned both models, the sport and the tour, I would say both helmets are very good but the tour takes the edge , more chin room and just feels like an improvement from an already brill helmet. The tint visor can be close to your nose when it’s all the way down but otherwise sound.. The noise is lower that most helmets I’ve owned , this is a factor on any helmet… obviously wear ear protection and I would recommend wearing a tube to reduce noise further … Don’t hesitate , your heads worth it 🎉
Love mine excepting the helmet release from fully closed, it feels much lighter than my previous Schuberth. The peripheral vision is superb but the Insyde comms system is overpriced so I’ll stick with my Cardo Bold for now. One of the best helmets I’ve ever had with amazing ventilation and recommended..
Hi!... Another great video! I bought this helmet two months ago and I'm very happy with it. It's my first modular helmet. It's not cheap, but you can't find it in a good price. Hi quality, very comfortable, easy to use and it has s good ventilation. It's a bit heavier than my former Shark Speed R, but it's not a big problem. A good point is the Insyde intercom system, totally integrated... And made by Cardo Systems. I'll be waiting for you review about it! See you!
Great review Tony. Looks like a very promising helmet, and I cheered when you said the integrated comms system is by Cardo. I'm due a new helmet, will take a look at this. Just not convinced yet if I need a modular rather than a regular full face.
Cheers, couls be worth a look, I wear both but there is no denying how practical they are. The only problem for me as a vlogger is they are not good for attaching action cameras too!
I have the sport modular and once it bedded in, the chin strap doesn’t feel like it’s choking me. My only, and it’s a bit of a big one, is the noise. I use noise reducing earplugs so I can still hear the comms but the wind noise above about 40mph is really bad. Other than that, I love the helmet. I would consider the new tour modular but may wait until there’s some deals on it.
i'd love to hear a direct comparison between the AGV Tourmodular and the new Shoei Neotec 3. my current lid is a Nexx XWED 2 - and i like it very much. however, i'd really like to try a modular as (i assume) it would be nice for gas stops, chatting with folks, , etc.. i can't find a local shop that carries the Tourmodular, so trying on will probably require ordering online and then returning (assuming i don't like). wish there were more places that carried a wider variety - most seem to have 2-3 brands and limited sizes.
I've oviously spent quite a lot of time in the AGV, but i've nver ridden in the Neotec3 i've only tried it on, so I can't really offer a comparison. The Neotec is very nicely finished and is a more compact shell, but outside of that i can't offer any more advice.
Are modular helmets more noisy than full face and what would be the quietest ones you have tested? bearing in mind all the caveats that you mentioned. Thank you for your time and professionalism in making these very interesting videos.
Not necessarily, I see it thrown around as a comment by some reviewers, but I think its one of those myths that stick. Yes there is obviously a small join in the shell which could cause more wind noise, but alot of helmet noise comes from the wind passing underneath, and modular helmets tend to have much better seals around the neck. In my experience I don't think overall modulars are any noiser than standard full face helmets.
How dark is the drop down sun visor? My complaint about the Sport Modular was that the drop down visor was only 40%, which I found virtually worthless and had to buy a replacement 80%.
Will a separate coms unit fit? Ie a freecom? I shy away from integrated coms 'cos it adds yet another €260 to the purchase (but I already have a coms unit) and then it ties me into the helmet brand going forward, which is part of the reason for integrated coms...
Great review, as they all are. Although this is an older review, how does this AGV stack up against the new Schuberth E2 (peak aside) in your later review of that and which do you prefer? Many thanks, keep em coming.
Thanks much for this detailed review. I'm strongly considering buying the Tourmodular Helmet. The Shoei Neotec 2 is another great Modular I'm considering. Have you tried a Neotec 2 and if so how would you compare these two modular helmets?
Thanks, it can yes. I kind of mention it at 01:48 where I refer to the lock. Under ece22.06 certification all helmets are tested in the closed and open positions (p&j). If the chin bar is deemed to be no protective the helmet is classed as an open face. The tourmodular is p&j certified 👍
Great video. I was wondering what you think is the Absolute Best venting helmet? I ride a touring bike with a windscreen so need lots of ventilation. Thank you 🙏
A tough question to answer depending on the style, for a road style full face the Arai Quantic/Contour X is really good. This AGV is brilliant for a modular helmet. The Nexx W.WRL or Bell MX9 offer really good ventilation for peaked adventure style helmets
Thanx for the video. What did you mean by if you put a screen in front of it it all goes out the window? I am suffering from wind buffeting on my forza 750 which has a tall wind screen. Currently i am with hjc rapha 91.
I was referring to the point that AGV make about the helmet effectively being weightless at speed due to the lift it creates. But if youare riding a bike with a screen, then that lift is no longer generated as the airflow is interrupted.
Thanks for a great video. 😃👍 I'm looking for a modular helmet and weight is a big factor for me, so the AGV Sport modular seems very attractive but I see the issue around the chin bar, although I haven't yet tried one on myself. I noticed you had the Sportmodular back in 2019. Have you seen/tried an updated one? Do you know if there is a Euro 6 version and if any improvements have been made to it since you had one? Thanks again. 🤗
Thanks, I found the Sport Modular to fit very close to the chin, too close for me. It looks like the Sport Modular is being dropped in 2024 and replaced with a different version? All agv helmets are now 22.06 from now on
Great review. I have watched this 2 times now as I am seriously looking at this helmet for my next purchase. Question for you, Have you ever worn the AGV K6, if so does this fit about the same and is the airflow better in this helmet? I currently have the K6 but want something new. I like the feel of AGV and know how they fit for the most part so was thinking of staying with AGV if this fits similar to the K6.
Thanks, yep I’ve reviewed the K6 ruclips.net/video/Rzdhn1lBEHM/видео.html and this fits the same. I think the airflow is better in this, particularly the top vent. It’s become the helmet I grab more often than any other at the moment
The biggest drawback on the Tour is the same with the Sport - the visor mech. There's no pullback on the visor when down, which means the visor seal will do next to nothing in rain. First time I used the Sport in the rain, it leaked horrendously and did every single time it rained after, even what can be described as mild drizzle, and it's the same with the E1. I sent back the Sport to the UK importers (via my work)and got a credit for it, because it rendered the helmet dangerous due to the Pinlock getting overwhelmed. Because of that, I cannot recommend anything without that pullback in the visor if you are a year round rider. I won't be going for another flip after my Schuberth E1 due to manufacturers constantly missing out on this, and the Neotec doesn't fit me well, so I'll be sticking with Arai, Shoei and the occasional Shark and HJC full faces for this reason
Interesting feedback, thanks for that. I have to say that I’ve not had any issues in the rain. When fully snapped down into place there’s a nice tight seal on the rubber.
I have the sport modular and recently did a 4k tour over 16 days on it where it rained pretty much every day.....including a couple sessions with torrential rain. It never leaked so I can only assume there was a fault with your helmet. The pinlock also worked well.
Hellp great review. Was one of the reviews which nudged me to get my tourmodular in matte black. Quick question, is it only compatible with the AGV insyde comms system and other cardo ones? So, for example I can't use a Lexin B4FM? Would appreciate help on this
Great review. I wear a Neotec and due to replace it due to age. Shortlist was Neotec 2 or the Schubert C5 but this is now a serious contender if I can find a local dealer so that I can try one for fit etc. In your opinion is this as good as the Shoei please? Thanks, Peter
Hi Peter, thanks and in answer to your question, it depends on what you mean by 'as good as'. I found the Shoei plush and premium, but heavy and a little claustrophobic. This maybe doesnt feel as plush, but the vision in my opinion is better, as is the ventilation.
Nice review Tony seems a good contender for me! the small space maybe is ok for smaller heads and what tends to be female face so definitely a contender to try. Did you get any more info about the coms? although Cardo is it a basic one ( I would imagine as that tends to be the norm) but if one of the latest tech that wouldn't be a bad compromise! As always great video, objective and delivered in a professional way! Tc
Cheers Marta, worth giving one a go. I'm not sure what system the comms is based on, but it does have mesh so can connect up to 15 riders and has a range of 1.2km. It also has the voice operation and is waterproof, so it sounds like a good one
I have the sport modular and am very happy with it but for a few gripes. The manual adjustments like vents and visor are difficult wearing gloves. That helmet needed bigger finger tabs. Also the rear vent rattled. What is this helmet like?
Tourmodular and Sportsmodular? Technically very similar in terms of construction. The tour has more room in it around the chin. It’s also got a bigger eye port and is better for more upright bikes.
I found it less claustrphobic, with better ventilation and much better vision. Fit very much depends on the individual, but in gerneral terms the fit is much the same
I've been interested in this helmet but would like to ask, have you ridden with it in the rain? I have the Sport Modular and like some other comments on here, it leaks! I like the AGV brand and they tend to fit my head shape well but I am hoping that the Tour Modular doesn't leak!
I have ridden with it in the rain, and I didn’t experience any leaks. There’s a decent seal with the visor. Maybe its a issue they’ve dealt with on this helmet?
Good lid. But having gone full face to modular to open face, I can't go back. Anything else is too heavy and claustrophobic. Currently Shark Nano with long range visor, essentially making it full face. Should add my normal touring speed is 80 to 90 kph on the smallest roads i can find,, so that's definitely a factor. Safe, happy travels 👍
Cheers, I may have the new LS2 Advant X Carbon to test soon, that looks like and interesting fold back helmet. I think possibly the first full carbon helmet of this type?
@@mancavemoto be interested to see. Weight is really important for me on long trips, especially when it's really hot, and I like the vision and awareness ooen face gives entering a busy foreign city with 'competitive 'traffic.
Here is one huge problem with this helmet. The shape of the side of the helmet and the placement of the sunvisor switch makes it almost impossible to install any communicator except AGV's own.
1723 gr for the Tourmodular is not at all light weight. The AGV Sportmodular starts at 1295 gr - wich is really light. I wonder how the heavier one of those two qualifies for "Touring" where it sits on your head all day while you endlessly brake and accelerate.
@@larifari4371 Totally agree. However, I think that's more of a result of satisfying the new 22 0 6 standard. Seems like everybody's lid has gotten heavier.
I guess it"s the carbon what makes the Sportmod. light AND safe. And the overall stiffness has to be higher with 2206 for the requiered chinbar up testing wich increases the weight of the Tourmodular.
I must’ve watched hours and hours of motorcycle reviews on RUclips but this is the most objective, well presented review I’ve ever watched. King regards from Barcelona!

I have read a few reviews and the HJC RPHA 90S carbon seems to be the lightest and quietest. Looking at getting one this season…
How dark is the drop down sun visor? My complaint about the Sport Modular was that the drop down visor was only 40%, which I found virtually worthless and had to buy a replacement 80%.
I think its a 65% tint?
Great review very informative. Thanks. 👍
Thanks for watching!
Great Review im debating to buy but XL is over 1800G which seems a lot my currant helmet 1450 so wondering if feels heavy on long ride cheers
I can honestly say that you dont notice the weight of the helmet even on long rides. Its really nicely balanced

Great review, as they all are. Although this is an older review, how does this AGV stack up against the new Schuberth E2 (peak aside) in your later review of that and which do you prefer? Many thanks, keep em coming.
Cheers, I would pick this over the E2, largely because of the fit for me personally. Its lighter and had better vision, but the Schuberth is plusher
Thanks much for this detailed review. I'm strongly considering buying the Tourmodular Helmet. The Shoei Neotec 2 is another great Modular I'm considering. Have you tried a Neotec 2 and if so how would you compare these two modular helmets?

Great review but no mention of whether it can be ridden with the helmet in flipped up mode. I know some are not rated as such
Thanks, it can yes. I kind of mention it at 01:48 where I refer to the lock. Under ece22.06 certification all helmets are tested in the closed and open positions (p&j). If the chin bar is deemed to be no protective the helmet is classed as an open face. The tourmodular is p&j certified 👍

Hi, I'm thinking about buying one, how does fit compared to Arai? Think size /shape & sizing? Would really like if you can tell me.
Good channel 😊
Slightly longer than most Arais, this leans a little to long oval. Having said that, this and the Arai Qunatic have very similar headforms
@@mancavemotothank you, how is it compared to Shoei neotec 2? Fit /ventilation?
I found it less claustrphobic, with better ventilation and much better vision. Fit very much depends on the individual, but in gerneral terms the fit is much the same
What of you already have the new Cardo Edge, and don't want to fork over for the Insyde system? Would mounting the Edge be possible on this?
Yes, there’s a nice flat surface do that and the wiring will tuck away neatly
Hello - good review; can you tell us where the tourmodular is manufactured??
Still in Italy as far as I’m aware
I found a recall on the AGV website - made in China…..
Cool, you answered your own question
Thanks for replying- I was very close to pulling the trigger but changed my mind
0:45 1723g is good? It's your first helmet?
For a modular with a drop down internal visor, yes it is..

Does the chin strap try to choke you around the throat like on the sports modular?
In a word, no
Hi great material very nice motorcycle ;)
Thank you! Cheers!
Good lid. But having gone full face to modular to open face, I can't go back.
Anything else is too heavy and claustrophobic.
Currently Shark Nano with long range visor, essentially making it full face.
Should add my normal touring speed is 80 to 90 kph on the smallest roads i can find,, so that's definitely a factor.
Safe, happy travels 👍

I think so too!
Is it true the weight will be zero at 130 km/hr ? If true then it's much better than the sport modular 🤔🤔
Well i guess that all depends on the bike, on a naked its likely to work, on a bike with a screen, not so much
Here is one huge problem with this helmet. The shape of the side of the helmet and the placement of the sunvisor switch makes it almost impossible to install any communicator except AGV's own.

@@EvMc305 They all got heavier.
But the Sportmodular still beats the Tourmodular on the crashtest results
Even though its "only" ECE 2205. Hard to believe but check out on motocap wich sits in Australia.
I guess it"s the carbon what makes the Sportmod. light AND safe. And the overall stiffness has to be higher with 2206 for the requiered chinbar up testing wich increases the weight of the Tourmodular.
Anyone know if any other AGV visors fit this helmet? The ones specific for the helmet are a complete rip off.
The visors are specific to the helmet because they are thicker and actually form part of the helmets safety structure.
