I would like to hear information on noise level of each helmet. What I head from other reviewers Bell bullit is horrible on high speed due to noise and whistles. So ,if to know this important information , may be half of the table will be presented
I tend to prefer simpler helmet designs so love the Biltwell and for me, it's the best looking here. Appreciate they are not to this safety standard but I have the Bullitt and the X3000 - really only use the latter as the former tries to rip my ears off when removing despite it fitting perfectly otherwise. HJC looks like a nice lid too. Your sizing guides are very useful. Cheers
Agreed, unfortunately my HJC doesnt like my head. I had a can 2 sizes up to fit, but that left to much space in other area's. Shoei was a direct hit, so I need to fit before buy again next time.
Can't go wrong with HJC. Have had half a dozen over the years and they all have been easy, decent fitting with good features. Ive run more premium lids but never thought they were that much better.
@@arudd60 @arudd60 it's quiet enough for me. And I have been motovlogging with a DJI Mic. Here's the 1 of the glamster's I have... ruclips.net/video/snyphaWI9nY/видео.htmlsi=mBOcGiVio6yMvmZq
Agreed. I just ordered a Glamster from a company in Italy to ship to the US. Of course it won't be legal here because it doesn't technically meet DOT standards. Which is just laughable considering ECE 22.06 is just so much more of an advanced safety certification in every way. A paper hat could pass DOT.
I'd go hjc in a heartbeat also it seems to have rear exit vents so it's perfect on paper shame the colours / graphics aren't so nice. And I'd much rather have a drop down sun visor instead of having to deal with all that changing visors when it's sunny faff
On the hjc, am I seeing it right where some models do in fact have exit vents around the bottom of the helmet on the back? Looks like some have it, some do not. There’s also a 30 dollar or so price difference. I love the look of the V10.
I very much appreciate that you addressed the head shape. For me every helmet review/recommendation video, that does not include this crucial info, is a worthless video. So thank you again and keep up the good work!
Like the presentation. One thing though: why is so hard to find out how much a standard size (like a large) weighs, for comparison? Lightness in a helmet is key, and that would seem to be a key statistic to report for consideration. Thanks for the good work.
Watched this but went with torc t1. Not sure how it stacks against same full price but I got mine for £145 in gloss black but wouldn't be unhappy at the full £250 for some choice of colour.
I am looking to get into motorcycling. Please do a video for riders who wear glasses and PinLock is not the ultimate solution. What do we do? Thank you so very much
Wish the Arai had a covered visor mechanism like on their other models, it would look really sleek. Also a longer chin bar would look cool but that’s just aesthetic preference.
I bought the Arai Rapide to go touring this year. I walked away from a crash with no head injuries, but I'm still not sure I'll buy it again: It's loud as shit at highway speeds! Thankfully I was mostly touring in SE Asia where the speeds are slower, but even -25dB earplugs aren't enough to make it comfortable above 70mph. It whistles at city speeds if you ride with the shield open. The Rapide was my first Arai helmet, but this seems to be a bug in the round Arai shape. You'll notice complaints about whistling in the comments sections of the Quantic and its visor too.
Hi, we are very sorry to hear about your accident but glad to hear that the gear has helped covering the damage! Thank you for sharing your views on the Arai Rapide, all the best! - Iza
Which one of these is the quietest? I have a roeg chase and it feels like an open face helmet, looking to upgrade to something that I cand take on some longer trips. Something with a better seal for the visor...

@UrbanRiderlondon hi, that is interestig becouse i had the helmet in my hands the other day at the local motorcycle dealership Now i'm pusled, I'll just have to check it again becouse I'm interested in this particular model I own V60 model for 2 years and love it
Do you know if I can put some goggles like the 100% on the Hjc v10, I love riding with goggles on summer. I was going for the hjc v60 but I do prefere full close option like the v10 :/ any advice will be appreciated :)
Can someone please help me with my concerns? I'm looking for the smallest helmet possible. Now to my question, which of the two is the more compact BILTWELL Gringo SV or shoei glamster 06, I would be very happy about your answers, thank you very much and kind regards from Germany!
If you want the Retro look. I believe the Gringo is the more Compact. But if you just want a Smaller, lightweight, helmet with great wind noise reduction for its size and weight... An AGV K6 cannot be beat. But it is NOT a Retro Look. Just an Extremely compact and lightweight helmet

Really great upgrades on the presentation on your products! Very thorough, detailed, and generally helpful. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
I have the Arai Concept XE lovely helmet really pleased with it :) Pete
Good to hear!

The HJC looks the best value and looks the best.
But is only DOT certified
Not sure why the HJC V10’s in the US appear to only be DOT certified. The ones sold overseas look to all have ECE 22.06.
Agreed, unfortunately my HJC doesnt like my head. I had a can 2 sizes up to fit, but that left to much space in other area's. Shoei was a direct hit, so I need to fit before buy again next time.
I would add the SMK retro to this list. Great video!

Great review. Would like to see a review of the MT Jarama. Love your videos 💪🏼
Thank you!
I have 2 x 05 glamsters. Hard to get in the USA. I may add a Arai Rapide or Concept XE eventually, if it's available by then.
Currently own the Shoei RF-SR. Love the Glamster. Do you feel like it’s quiet enough?
@@arudd60 @arudd60 it's quiet enough for me. And I have been motovlogging with a DJI Mic.
Here's the 1 of the glamster's I have...

@arudd60 And here's how good a mic sounds in the helmet.

An excellent review. Unfortunatley I still can't make up my mind!
I do have a bycity and now a MT Jarama and I do prefer the latter. Would love to see a review from the MT Jarama

Do you know if the t1 is 22.6 or still 22.5?
I miss the Nexx xg100r! I think they don’t make them anymore 😢
They still make them

Which model is the most VENTILATED?
Arai concept xe and Shoei glamster
@@madpekon thanks!
Which one of these is the quietest? I have a roeg chase and it feels like an open face helmet, looking to upgrade to something that I cand take on some longer trips. Something with a better seal for the visor...
I’d love to have some noise comparisons also. I love these retro helmets, but am concerned about noise on longer rides.
Hi Silviu, the Arai Concept-XE would be the quietest from our experience, then followed up by Gringo SV. Hope this helps! - Iza
If I could only get the Glamster in the USA....ugggg All the cool stuff it overseas from us
We ship worldwide :)

Just print a dot sticker to slap on it. That's all they do.. 😂
Glamster 06 "Lots of airflow going through it": Yeah and it is extremly noisy because of that. 😞
HJC V10 has exit vents on the back of the helmet
Hi Kristina, the final production version does not have the rear vents sadly. - Iza
@UrbanRiderlondon hi, that is interestig becouse i had the helmet in my hands the other day at the local motorcycle dealership
Now i'm pusled, I'll just have to check it again becouse I'm interested in this particular model
I own V60 model for 2 years and love it
Hi what the helmet most smallest? I need for custom project
No Torc T1 ?
Miss Hedon…☺️
Do you know if I can put some goggles like the 100% on the Hjc v10, I love riding with goggles on summer. I was going for the hjc v60 but I do prefere full close option like the v10 :/ any advice will be appreciated :)
Hi, I'm afraid that due to the large frame on the 100% goggles they won't fit with most of full face helmets. - Iza
@@UrbanRiderlondon okay thanks !! But I’m afraid of the noise on the v60 ..
