atv helmet reviews

Here are some pictures of my new ATV helmet with optional MX mask. These enduro type helmets are very nice. They give you a large front opening which is great for people who wear glasses or like me enjoy riding with a open helmet and wear sunglasses. This helmet also has the option of a sun visor and shield. The visor is great for those rides when the sun is right in front of you. No more having to lift your hand over your head to block the sun. It also helps prevent sunburn of the forehead. The shield is perfect on coming quads that bring dust or for those unexpected rain storms.

This helmet also has a very nice ventilation system both on top and at the nose. Easy to open and close while wearing it. Even the adjustable sun visor is designed with a wind tunnel to channel wind to the top vent to help keep your head cool. My head is a size is 23 ½ inches and the XL fits snug. I am sure after my first ride it will loosen some. The weight of this helmet is only about 3 ½. It also comes with a helmet bag and side cover if you wish to remove the visor or shield completely. This helmet is a nice safety option to have for the ATV trail! I know I am going to enjoy this helmet.

I like it!

I'd like to get a new helmet. I also wear glasses and find the full face helmets a real pain to ride in. Its hard to get the glasses on and off, and once they are on the helmet moves the lenses all over your face blurring the vision. So, I resort to the 3/4 shell helmets. I'd like to buy a new one. I like the new Bell RT's but with the Obama economy the way it is, it will just have to wait awhile longer. Also like a removable liner. Not 100% sure the Bell has that feature.

I just mounted my Collett communicator to the helmet. A perfect fit. There was even a place to place the speakers to sit so they are out of the way. This system is bluetooh and works with my phone. The communicator answers call automatically. I can have conversations on the trail and people have no clue I am out playing! It even has bluetooth stereo so you can listen to your favorite music. Not to mention it is a great safety feature to have with a group of riders. All my riding buddies have one.

how does the speaker get into the helmet is it a drilling thing or just runs underneath dont see the wire for the speaker anywhere

The helmet has a opening where the speakers fit into. They are connected with Velcro & the wires are under the padding. Its almost like this helmet was made to take the Collett system.
