Not bad a round town, drags a LOT at speed

-Quiet enough for a budget lid
-Comfortable
-Decent quality finis
-4 star SHARP
-Steams up badly, VisorClear sorted the problem, but need to treat the visor once-twice weekly.
-I've got a GSR750 (naked), at anything above 65-70mph the lid feels like a parachute. In comparison with my new Nexx XR1R, it's heavy and drags.
It's an OK lid if you don't travel far/at speed, otherwise there are plenty of sub-£150 composit/carbon alternatives with better venting outh there these days: Marushin, HJC, Nexx, AGV (S-4, not SV), etc.

What a great helmet and not only that its cheap!

This helmet is the entry level but curtainly doesnt feel like it. Its very comfortable and fits well all round. The wind noise is kept to an absolute minimum even at high speeds and it's great on long rides. The vents are very user friendly and offer a good flow around the whole helmet. The strap is the ratchet type and also easier to use than the d ring type. The only upgrade needed is a tinted visor at £44.99 and it's perfect.
There are very few cons at all but if I had to say one it would be that the visor does fog up a little at low speeds in hot weather. This is easily rectified by opening the visor slightly as most of us do anyway when going under 20mph for any length of time. The other alternative is one of the many anti fog sprays available on the market. I have tried a Wurth spray and this works very well.
Overall I love this helmet. I purchased mine when I was doing my lessons and tests a while ago and couldn't believe how much better it was than the high end helmet I had borrowed from the instructor. It really is quiet and well vented and as I have said I really wouldn't say anything bad about it at all. I paid £109 for mine and have just purchased a second one for my wife. The price is very good for a top quality helmet. the visors are extremely easy to take on and off for cleaning etc. I would recomend this helmet to anyone and everyone.
