Default Thumbs up for Bell Pit Boss helmet.

I purchased a Bell Pit Boss helmet. Such better made helmet than my previous HD helmet. The flip down eye protection works great I used to use Wilex glasses but the Bell sunglass flip down is so much more comfortable. As far as the helmet is lighter than my previous helmet. So if anyone is looking for a half helment take a look at the Bell Pit Boss.

Love mine as well. I swapped out the tinted lens for a clear one so I can simply pull off my sunglasses as it gets dark. I just wish the liner was removable.

How bad does the visor catch the wind ?

Not bad at all I don't were my sunglass anymore. I went on a 300 mile trip and I had no problems. It was diffently less wind buffeting than the last half helmet I bought from HD.

Out of the 5 helmets I have it is the only one I'll wear when I wear one.

Best helmet I've ever owned. Had all kinds of full face types, including the Nolan flip-up, but the Bell Pit Boss wins out. I wear prescription glasses and love the tinted flip-up visor in the Pit Boss...critical here in Sin City sunshine :-)

Best helmet I have purchased in years. I liked it so much the wife ordered one and she is usually hard to please helmet wise but she really likes it.

The flip down shield has really helped in both direct sunlight and in rain.

I forgot that I have some pictures now with the Pit Boss. We rode out to see our grandson last month and he wants one to!
