    I've used an LS2 Carbon Explorer for two years riding a TW200.
    This year I bought a BELL SRT after testing six helmets (from Amazon). Only place I know of you can return a worn helmet. Make sure to get that in writing before you buy. Not all vendors will agree to that policy.
    The Bell is just OUTSTANDING! I paired that with a Cardo freecom 2x. Best system I've ever used.
    My only complaint is I have one heck of a time getting streakless, perfectly clean visors. I have 5 visors, and have that problem with all of them. Don't have that issue with the LS2.
    I also fitted the Bell with an old Nolan quick release chin lock. Works great!

  • @icrobicrob2718
    @icrobicrob2718 5 месяцев назад +1

    Two things to consider when buying this great helmet. 1. The Carbon Fiber weighs the same as the standard version. 2. The correct size helmet will be very snug around your cheeks as it will break in fairly quickly and fit not so snug. I thought the Large was to snug and switched to an Extra Large. After a two week ride the XL felt like it was wiggling slightly loose on my head. I went back to the large which was actually the correct size after a few rides. Great helmet! I installed the external Cardo on mine.

  • @300shields

    I own a few Bell helmets and a couple of the ls 2 helmets. Both are good quality helmets. I like the bell modular better just because the Advent x is too wide on the sides. Looks and feels awkward to me. Also modular helmets are not meant to be worn at high speeds. The new Rpha 91 by HJC is rated to be worn on the open position, due to the chin bar having not having g a bigger gap. The Scorpion 930 modular actually has a chin bar that comes off for a true 3/4 helmet. Also ECE rated. I really enjoy your videos! Keep up the great work. Thanks. Also Modular is the best for me, it let's me smoke cigars while riding!😊

    I have the LS2 and absolutely love it! I still use my Shoei 1400, but more often than not I reach for LS2. Comes with dark smoke and clear shields too and the price is actually less than I thought. Only problem right now is it’s hard to get an extra pin loc cause it’s new to market. I went with the dark shield and use the Shoei at night until the pin lock comes available. You will not be disappointed if you choose this helmet!

    I have that same white bell modular. There is a lot of wind noise. The LS2 is over $700 and most people have a hard time coming up with that cash. I have a tall windshield on my fjr1300 so the noise is basically on the top of my head but I would love to try that LS2! Thanks for the video Sandy!

  • @roderickxuan4573
    @roderickxuan4573 20 дней назад

    For the past 20+ yrs, I have exclusively used Roof, from France. I have three Roof Desmos, now discontinued. With the Roof Desmo, I have ridden at highway speed with the chin bar fully rotated to the rear. No aerodynamics issues. But usually, in town, I ride with the chin bar fully rotated back, then before getting on the highway, I move the chin bar to full face.
    Roof does not sell in the US because of safety certification issues. But with the 'beany' type of helmet popular with the HD riders that are 'certified' by DOT/Snell, I do not think my Desmos are any worse. I do not believe the Euros are any less caring than Americans about their heads.

    Great video Sandy! Question... what size helmet do you normally where, and is the LS2 true to size? I'm reading some conflicting reports that it tends to run a little small, and since it looks like the only way to get one of these is to order it online I need to figure out what size to get. Thanks brother!!

    On most helmets I wear a extra small my head size is 21 inches , but on the ls2 modular s I had to get a size large and its pretty tight . Make sure you try one on before you buy it . The head sizes are way off . I went through a small ,medium and then the large . Thats 3 sizes bigger just to fit my small head size .

  • @sharkdog111

    Great review. I work overnights, and ride to work at night, it's dark, then ride home in the morning with sun glasses. Do they have an inner sunshade that is clear, or yellow? The only reason I'm hanging on to my 2018 Shoei Neotec 2 is because it had the option of a yellow inner sunshade. I never ride with the outer screen down. I need the airflow. I haven't seen anyone offer a clear inner "sun shade". For me the inner sun shade is just about eye protection, not wanting to put eye protection on, witch hurts my head, temples, and getting that free air in my helmet. Your thoughts.

    • @HOLYSHIFT
      @HOLYSHIFT  5 месяцев назад +1

      I don’t know about that option but just FYI - John was riding most of the time with clear outer visor on only and was getting a lot of ventilation

    In my opinion it makes no sense to ride with the chinbar raised. If you need more wind in your face open the shield. In the event of a crash you won’t have time to lower the chinbar.

  • @MegaNayton
    @MegaNayton 4 месяца назад

    In the UK the bell helmet isn't rated for riding with it open so a few reviews in the UK have stated its actually illegal to ride with the front flipped up. i will ask out of the 2 helmets how did you find wind noise as i have a modular ls2 currently (scope) the wind noise is unbearable and in the rain i get water coming in side pass the visor for a person such as my self who wears glasses that's a big no no due to the fact if water gets on them i cant wipe them off and visibility is then really badly affected

  • @Robert8455

  • @RonInNapa

    I don't know about the Bell, but I believe that most modular helmets are NOT safety-rated with the chin bar up. They are not designed to be riden as a 3/4 helmet and companies warn the owner in the reading materials. The LS2 Advant series IS safety-rated as a 3/4 helmet with the chin bar up.

  • @junebugsampson360
    @junebugsampson360 Месяц назад

    I like your video. My only complaint and this is my opinion is when you described what a modular helmet is. You probably should have did that before you started talking about either one of the helmets, so everyone already knew you wait until you're 5 minutes into the video to describe what a modular helmet is. After you already talked about, the Bell helmet made no sense. You should describe what it is and what's so special about what you're talking about before you start on any part of the review

  • @whtt001

  • @kerrymcclure7503
    @kerrymcclure7503 5 месяцев назад

    I've never seen a traditional modular helmet that did not have the warning that you are not to ride with the chin bar up.
    If you Were to go down And in a slide with the chin bar up, it can catch on something and break your neck.
    So all that catching of the air does not matter because you are doing something the helmet was not designed to do.
    The LS2 helmet, was designed to do that.
    Be careful, ride safe.
