HJC IS-MAX II

Well it says Harley on it but they didn't make it. Like it for the price but it has lots of wind noise etc.

Will upgrade in a year of so.

BTW right now I have a Bell vortex. It's 5 years old. Cost a lot when I got it, but it's ****. Super noisy.

Interesting discussion. Seems like a big trend towards full face helmets.

Bell Qualifier with the transition lens, great airflow and the lens was worth the price of admission

Great thread. I'm looking into a Shoei Rf-1200 myself.

I really like my Bell Star Carbon, and I'm on my second one. I usually only buy solid black helmets, but after crashing in my first one (it did everything it was supposed to), I looked for ways to avoid spending another $650... While I never buy RSD stuff, this RSD graphic had been discontinued and the helmet was on closeout for $369... Look for discontinued graphics! The helmet itself was still current when I got it, and the graphic has actually grown on me since... The new Bell Star line actually includes two designs: One with an eyeport aimed at a "tucked" position, and one aimed at an upright "cruiser" position. Bonus with most Bell helmets: Transitions SolFX faceshields are made for them, and work really well. No messing around with different shields, sunglasses, internal shades, etc. And it's the absolute easiest shield removal mechanism I've ever used.
