“This is a nice helmet, Shoei quality, well refined, comfortable, super light, good look. Despite bad reviews about the visor, I have no issues with it, there is not point of driving with a visor half open IMO. The real problem though, is the wind noise, it's extremely loud above 30-35 mph, the good point is that it push you to wear earplugs, which is always a good idea. But keep this in mind before buying a retro helmet.”

“great helmet, fits perfect (61cm XL), looks amazing, great visibility, super light. the only downside i have found is the visor can only be up or down and it has a tendency to fog up a little and the ability to crack open the visor slightly would fix a common problem we all know. being a retro style helmet you sacrifice some functionatlity overall great quality helmet. happy with it”

“Great service and great helmet. I'd recommend your usual fit, mine being L. I would agree with others and does need a notch for slightly open but the pinlock is a lovely addition. I ordered the Dark Smoke Visor to compliment the look.”

“I own a Bell Moto-3 and a DMD 75 and was looking for a light full face helmet for winter. I ended buying a Glamster but it now sits on a shelf waiting to be sold. The quality and weight are good but the functionality not so much. Two things stop me from keeping this helmet, firstly the visor can only be up or down, anything in between and it will close above 25mph (if you're lucky). Secondly the pinlock insert is very reflective and slightly tinted which makes is unusable at night (any way to upgrade this?) I tried removing the insert but that makes the helmet fog up. That alone wouldn't a huge issue if I could keep the helmet slightly open but as mentioned above that's not possible, also I use the helmet in the rain. Is it a good helmet? It is, if you don't mind always keeping the visor down and you don't ride at night. Unfortunately it didn't meet my expectations.”
