My Cardo PackTalk Edge sticky mount fits perfectly on the side of the helmet where the HJC Sena unit is supposed to mount.



I just picked up an I91 modular last week to wear on road trips and winter. Been road testing it and so far I really like it. Been wearing a 1/2 helmet forever so this is a real adjustment for me.

That's great. Mine was a little tight around the top of my head, but after a few hours it has formed well to my head shape. I'm very happy with it. It also has a wider viewing area side-to-side than previous HJC helmets. The way the internal visor closes ALL the way down to the chin bar, cutting off ALL outside light, is huge.

I don’t like sporty power Ranger styles with a Harley. Sorta prefer a vintage look. All DOD approved. The full face are also additionally CEC rated.

I hate the bobble head deal.. so I’m picky and have been through a lot to find the ones I have. I will say it gets weird if your wife come home and finds you wearing a helmet inside the house… a bit awkward explaining why you have it on. This day was when it was delivered.. I put it one and did a selfy trying to see if it was ginormous on my head. You don’t want your wife seeing that.

I’m 6’ 5” have a semi oval shaped head. In Bell I wear a large and in Daytona I wear an XL

I tried one of these last weekend, It fit well and I was impressed. I may get one later on this year.

I had mine on after installing my new Cardo unit and thought I'd call my brother to see how well taking phone calls might work. He happened to be out on his bike and we ended up chatting for a few minutes since we were impressed at how well the noise cancelling worked. Wife definitely looked at me strange seeing me with my feet kicked up "talking to myself" with a helmet on!

Wow, your helmets are all Department of Defense approved.....??

At one time I had a DOE (Dept. of Energy) security clearance, but never for any of my helmets...

So, what you're saying is you'd rather look like Speed Racer?
