Icon Airfram Ghost Carbon helmet
Hey everyone, looking to buy a full face helmet this year and was wondering if anyone has tried the Icon Airframe Ghost Carbon helmet. Looks wise I think this one is the best out of any ive saw. Looked at SHOEI and Arai. From what I have heard people say Arai fit the best. Just looking for some opinions and even more options but mostly about the Icon.
Thanks

I have no experience with that helmet, or any Icon helmet. However, in my experience, different helmets, like different heads, are shaped differently. Thus, different people will find different helmets more or less comfortable.

I used to have an icon mainframe when i rode sport bikes..it was a really comfy helmet, fairly light weight and not too noisy. Im thinking about the airframe also, when i get a new bike. Overall, i think they make some great products!

Like JMB said diffrent brands fit differently. I had an Icon Airframe Carbon (not the new one the first carbon one) and it gave me unbearable headaches after an hour or so when I would pull it off I could see in the center of my forehead where it was putting pressure, thats because it was more rounded round. I sold it and bought a Shoei X-Twelve and it fits damn good its longer front to back. Best thing to do is try some on at a shop, but its still a jump in the dark because like i said that icon would only do it after an hour or so.
The X-Twelve is more of a racing helmet and I dont wear it on my WG more of a sportbike look and feel as the way it fits when tucked in

I have the Icon Alliance with the dark shield and love it. Icon has awesome gear (have their gloves and vest).

Love my Shoei Qwest. Got it from Revzilla. Their customer service is amazing and size chart is dead on.

I have an icon airframe manic version that is fiberglass. The quality is amazing. Shields are great, it never fogs, breathes when its hot, and is lightweight.
The removable liners are great because you can remove it, wash, and then throw back in.
