I like this helmet. Great peripheral vision, I would imagine. Daft peak.

I thought the bell looked a bit more originally retro but when tried on it was too narrow, while with the shoei the pressure was more dispersed (a good thing). On the bright side you end up with free internal visor with the Shoei.

I can vouch for how well the 100% Barstow Legend goggles work with this helmet having taken an unexpected test ride on an MT10.

I wear and XL & find the Barstows catch on the bottom left corners. So for me & my head/face shape they don’t fit well. I have a pair of Accuri which fit fine

Very good and detailed review ! First of all thank you for that ! I just have one question as I want to order this exact model. The only thing I want to know is if the internal visor can be removed and replaced quickly? I wanted to get a smoked and a clear visor so I can install the tinted/smoked one in sunny weather conditions and replace it with the clear one for night rides. Thanks in advance for your answer ! :-)

Great cool helmet. Love it 👍🏽

Does the chin bar form part of the protection as it does with their more normal full face helmets of is it weaker and more for styling?

Great video, great helmet - Shoei have some superb lids at the moment. I used to be an Arai man through and through but their refusal (I believe) to do things like modular helmets, drop down visors, retro styled helmets is losing them market share - me included. Nice one guys.

Hey Andrew. 1. seems the shell size look a lot smaller than Hedon full face helmets is it really in real life? 2. my head is about 55.5cm - 56cm and I wear heron full face size M perfectly fit. Should I go for M as well? 3. same helmets that are selling from a few Asian websites are having the asian fit version of this model, would that affect of choosing size between ordering from the american or european stores?

Back in the day(1970s) Arai(新井) was the only game in town and cheap to boot, open face Arai was the one everyone was wearing.. Shoei(昭栄?) didn't even exist(or in its infancy as a company). Nowadays all top racers wear Arai(or Shoei) and the prices are prohibitive . Time flies.

Do you know if Shoei will have different thickness cheek pads for this helmet as they do with their other models? Wouldn't mind a retro helmet when riding my old Vespa. I've had a Shoei NXR with their thickest cheek pads for the last couple years/20,000 miles - the fit perfect and I couldn't go back to not having thicker cheek pads for the perfect fit. I must have a skinny face.

Yes, I've used it for a week. It's essentially open faced so loudness is like any other MC styled helmet. It's perhaps slightly quieter than the Bell Moto 3 but a lot of the time, noise levels are so subjective in relation to fit, type of bike, etc.

Dan O I think if it’s a ultra face helmet with tons on inner vents for a athlete who’s going all out for 30 minutes that helmet would flow More air and often be louder but ear plugs will tame that sound... Often these more open face helmets flow allot of air but if there are no vents inside it will or could be a sweat fest as they expect you to be moving enough to ram air next to your face and around the bottom with no inner vents... The question is are there inner vents and right now he mentioned nothing and we easily see no obvious vents. Also the visor would dry your eyes out POSSIBLY as air circles up and under with light volume over a hour on freeway... for example your eyes would eventually get very dry. Googles seam the must or tight eye glasses in those 1 Hour+ type Rides imo. Hope this helps.
