Those are really nice looking helmets. I always liked carbon fiber. I'll take one helmet but will skip the silk scarf....lol.

Agree. Doesn't matter how much you pay for one...the first meeting with the pavement ends the relationship. To each their own....at least you want to wear one....

Ride safe

What am I missing guys ? I'm from the old school and those just look like a Bell helmet to me. Buy them anywhere at a local Harley shop.

Yes, to me the price kind of match the quality, not meaning I'm getting one. If you look closely the leather linin is only in the edges inside is a different material.

I agree that they're way too expensive (for me). If you're in SoCal, you can go see them and try them on at Glory in Hollywood.

Fit and finish is excellent in person. Interesting that they're a French company, but the helmets are manufactured in China (or Taiwan, can't remember).

You must have a Biltwell knock-off..or do you actually own one? Because my 2 Biltwell's stay snug as a rug with no movement at any speed...My $185.00 ACC/HeadCRAP helmet collects dust. Because all i wear now are my GREAT fitting Biltwell's.

To the OP about those hemets...they remind me of the DAVIDA helmets...looks killer but to pricey
