Great helmet: Motorcycle & Powersports

Great helmet. Everything I had hoped for. Like the MX9 but with City Guard. Ventilation is good but gets hot in hot weather. Looks great with a tinted screen, sold separately.

Pros
  • This is awesome
Cons
  • Fits

Cheek pads are larger than expected

Definitely looks like a good helmet. My only issue is that the cheek pads compress my face too much and after checking the Bell website the XL helmets come with a 35mm cheek pad and the one I converted comes with a 40mm -Cheek pads. So I had to pay a bit more to get proper cheek pads.

Pros
  • Lots of good vibes
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Fur, regular helmet for $, nothing special.

Regular helmet for the money. Catches the wind like a damn sail when you turn your head. And while several reviewers claim they fit the glasses well, the cushions are so thick they crack the frames on the sides of your head.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Good but not great

Good helmet - just didn't fit me

Helmet looks good. Not super lightweight, but probably one of the lightest in this price range. The only issue I had was the cheek pads excessively pressing my cheeks against my teeth, but that's an issue I've experienced with most helmets of this type. I'll probably have to switch to a modular helmet to get the fit I want.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Appearance

Perfect adventure bike helmet

I have had several Bell helmets over the years and switched to a different (more expensive) helmet when I started riding sport bikes where the likelihood of actually needing it increased. Now I'm older and I mostly drive to work or in the country on the weekends. Prices on other helmets skyrocketed, so I went back to Bell. I can't say enough about how well made, feels and performs. The screen is easy to swap out (I bought a darker screen). I'm in Arizona and the sun is cruel. I ride a Honda…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Reliability

Preferably? no But very good.

After riding in cool and hot weather I can say this helmet is worth the money. i really dig it I had to order thinner plaid pads to be a little more comfortable but I have a round face. It's not a silent helmet and it doesn't have super high airflow. It flows just enough to keep you comfortable in hot weather, but not enough to chill you when it's busy outside. I added a nice tinted visor and now I look like a Master Chief when I ride :) The sun visor/seat protector blocks the wind a bit at…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great Price
