Have any of you purchased this helmet? If so what do you think? I believe it is the same helmet as the HJC IS-33.

I looked at it just today. One thing I noticed is that when you push the button to raise the sun shield it is spring loaded and flies back and slams in the up position. When it does it makes one hell of a racket. Didn't try it wearing but I do believe that it will be louder when it does.
Have the Harley version and got it in January. I find the wind noise extremely loud with the clear shield all the way down. Also, those two little doors at the top of the helmet to let in air are totally useless. They rattle in the closed position. I will put clear tape over them when I ride in colder weather to keep the air out and shut down the noise.
They could make a really neat helmet if they took the clear shield off and put on a visor and then use clear on the drop down shade. I always wear sunglasses and the clear would be perfect at night. JMHO.
I just looked at the same 98210-10VM helmet at a dealer this past weekend. I currently wear an HD half helmet but if I were looking to buy a 3/4, this is the one I would choose.
Thanks for the replies, I guess I will have to go look at one in person. I guess if I want my helmet to say "Harley Davidson" I got to pay $35.00 more since a regular IS-33 is around $125.00.
