That's good on you for rocking a Full-Faced helmet! IMHO, the Biltwell Lane Splitter and your Simpson Ghost Bandit look EXCELLENT! Both lids look Classic AF! Keep up the Great work, I am now happily SUBSCRIBED! Keep up the PMA!
Thanks for the shoutout my dude 💍🙌🏻
Review both! Review both! That’s my vote 💯
I’m waiting for that gunmetal grey outlaw bandit to drop!
Great vid! Definitely more comfortable I bought the Ghost bandit now. Can’t wait to rock it when I get home!
Roman Morales Awesome dude! Let me know how it works out for you! 🗽⚡️
Punk and hardcore shows. Same bro. Same. Still love it.
Always great to meet someone with that commonality! 🗽⚡️
It was chilly. It was in the 20s when I started filming for my last video on my channel. Liked the video.
Great stuff mate, its Definitely a Way cool Helmet ! and some Great info on it! , Ride safe on those cold streets Bro !.
FatBoy740 thanks man! 🗽⚡️

Midnight Cruiser all good! Happy to help!! 🗽⚡️
Bravo!! Thank you
Thanks BK, your videos keep me riding. I love my Dyna Low Rider. It's cold up here in Massachusetts, but I'm gonna ride till the snow flies.
Jeffrey Scales right on man!! That’s the way to do it! Thanks for checking it out! 🗽⚡️

Ride safe man, cheers- SkidPig
SkidPig right on dude! Glad to have you aboard, I’ll definitely check out your channel! 🗽⚡️
FXDLS Brooklyn cheers bro!!! Keep up the good work
I'd like to see the comparison video. I'll like the Simpson but probably can only afford the lane splitter.
Thanks!
texasavage right on! Thanks for checking it out! 🗽⚡️
Grew up playing HxC shows in and around NYC. Loved the Pyramid Club, and Nikki and Sams. And Redzone in Queens. And the Italian Social Club. Never got the chance to play CBGBs. 45 today in Philadelphia and I'm just procrastinating getting on my bike for anything.
TheeGreat0ne hell yeah that's awesome man! NYHC and motorcycles all day 🗽⚡️
I ride in all kinds of weather but of cause not when it's snow or ice outside..I rode in -12 degrees a couple of times..The roads were dry but damn that was cold. I had to drop into every gasstation on the road to get some warm coffee to warm up hehe
Cruiser John yeah that’s some real painful cold, definitely need heated gear for those conditions ❄️❄️❄️
🤘
Thank you for riding when it’s 34 degrees. I️ just got done listening to another UA-camr call 70 and sunny chilly..... so sad...
FXDLS1990 Temp is really kind of subjective. I've been outside in the cold with -65 windchill and been relatively fine, but have also been outside, wet, and temp was high 60s and thought I was dying.
If you're outside let's say in the desert and it's 120 during the day and it drops to the 75-80 at night, you're going to feel like you're freezing your ass off.
FXDLS1990 yeah man just trying to get out there and ride! Always going against the elements 😹😹
I can confirm that..This helmet is super light.
Best helmet I have ever worn in 45 years of riding.
Jerry P. Yeah I actually recently got another! Great helmet!
Sup bro. I’m still riding to work at 5am everyday. Got the same gloves and my fingertips still get a little chilly even with glove liners. Thought about getting those hand guards to stop the wind on my fingertips. What’s your input? Riding in temps like that does it feel the handguards help your fingertips?
I asked him the same thing a while back when I was riding home at 3 AM and it was 33 degrees. The handguards are amazing and help a lot with blocking the wind and help to keep your fingers from getting the chilly numb feeling.
Collin Thrap thanks man. Gonna go that route then
heated gloves my brother
NFJ Bastard it definitely helps, but I'm finding it's not enough when it's below like 40. I think the combination of hand guards and heated gloves are the way to go! 🗽⚡️
Throw come latex gloves on under your moto gloves and your hands will stay much warmer... Just my 2¢
Riding in 32 degrees is just fine. Ride in monsoons with flooded streets! Ride it !!
John Holtz oh I’ve done that too. Good times 😎
What brand and model are those gloves ?
Hi FXDLS, this definitely informed be more about both helmets. I'm leaning more on the ghost bandit because I move around S.E. Asia (more venting needed), but I have more questions on the ghost bandit.
Did any water get into the rear vent of the helmet during the rain (we have some pretty nasty rain here during monsoon)? Is there an actuator to close the valve like how they have it in the front?
Lastly, I'm currently in Taiwan and we don't have any shops carrying Simpson helmets so I can't test one out. I wear a size 8 hat, what size should I order? If I get my order wrong then that's 450 bucks gone. I earn with the local currency, so that will hurt even more.
Thanks in advance!
SamDPilot hey dude! Nah I’ve never had an issue with water coming through. You can’t close the back vents unfortunately. As for sizing, I think you best bet to be sure is contact the company first and get their opinion on it before choosing a size. Hope this helps! 🗽⚡️
FXDLS Brooklyn ah okay. Thank dude! Sweet dyna BTW. Keep riding, keep recording. 🤘🤘🤘
Riding in the cold isn't bad. We get used to it. By the time temps drop down lower everyone else is shivering and we riders are already used to it.
ever borjas right on! ❄️ 🏍💯
Dude trust me, if you're planning to buy heated gloves...well just do it. It really change my life. Im ridding in North of France sometimes negative ( in celsius). It worths the money.
I've a question, do you feel that the helmet IS Moving ahead at high speed ?
Trve Giibz yeah I’ve long since upgraded to heated gear, you should check out my video on it to echo what you’re saying! As for the helmet at high speeds, I’ve never noticed that 🗽⚡️
Do you have a video showing your audio setup for the gopro?
HardassThe1 nah I’ll see if I can get something like that up though, it’s nothing to complicated just a Sony lav make and some double sided tape
Sup BK... been looking at a new seat. Either the Lucky Dave's or the Saddleman. Watched Conner's vid on the comparison and realize it's pretty close on either. My question is since you had your girl on the back, how's the 2 up feel on that for her?
Alter_ Ego hey man! With the sissy bar she’s good! There’s been no complaints and that’s with city riding and long rides included! Hope that helps! 🗽⚡️
FXDLS Brooklyn - hells jeah man! I can find all kinds of reviews on the seat from a riders perspective, but not much on passenger. Thanks for the fast reply. Bike is sick man. Got a new sub! 👍
Bro, when it's 50 degrees in GA, I'm bitching it's too cold
SailHatan_FXDLS haha yeah man! I've ridden in GA around this time of year, beautiful man! Thanks for checking it out! 🗽⚡️
What Jacket are you wearing under the vest? (The tan one)
MrJazinsky that is a Carhartt standard work jacket, size small
Do you ride with earplugs?
CLUTCH1st nah never, I feel like that would freak me out! Thanks for checking it out man, looks like you got some helmet review videos coming our way soon 💯💯
Was looking but could not find it.
what is the blueooth hardware you use? I like the sleek look of it.
So in this, it's a Sena 20S, I know longer use this though, these days I use a Lexin FT4 Pro - if you go to their website and buy one, use discount code fxdlsbrooklyn to save some money!
@@FXDLSBrooklyn this new one is better then the Sena 20s? i will for sure look into it.
How’s the overall wind noise? I’m coming from a biltwell lane splitter and it really is noisy
It’s definitely noisy - if you’re looking for noise reduction try the Shoei rf-1200
Do the comparison video! I would like to know if the Gost Bandit is worth the extra money!
John Daniels will definitely see what I can do! 🗽⚡️!
Yes do it!!!!!
Hey bro, what kind of chin mount are you using for your GoPro?
Just the stock GoPro mounting, nothing crazy
How well does it vent in the heat? I’m in northeast Florida and I want to make sure I’m not going to be cooking in there
Hunter Bunn never had any issues with heat
FXDLS Brooklyn thanks for the reply man
What kinda com system u running? Diggin this set up
jL3194 thanks man! It’s just the standard SENA 20S 🗽⚡️!
FXDLS Brooklyn what do u think of it? It seems to be the preferred choice but when I went to buy one I saw so many bad reviews on the sound quality. What do u think? I'm from Indiana there's no helmet law here, so I'm not a new rider by any means but very new to wearing a helmet 😂😂😂
jL3194 yeah it's definitely not loud enough to be annoying, I recommend it! Either go with that or the Lanesplitter
FXDLS Brooklyn nahh bro I mean the 20s sound quality! I heard such mixed reviews about the volume not being loud enough
jL3194 oh yeah dude that's for sure, it's nowhere near loud enough. Maybe they fixed that on the new model
what size head you got ? for you to get a medium?
Brett Bowers the funny thing about it is I got the helmet when I had really long hair, when I cut all my hair off there was significantly more room in the helmet 😹
Lane splitters? Isn’t it illegal in New York? When I lived in tx it was illegal I’m finally back home in Cali lane splitting is legal here. I don’t understand why certain states are against it.
non-related stupid question : what are the red gloves you guys rock we see a little in the video ?
Julien Hébert those are thrashing supply stealth gloves 🔥💯
@@FXDLSBrooklyn thx for the answer bro , appreciate.
Hi, what brand is your vest?
Greetings from Germany
Matthias Stiefel ahh I gotta check, it’s from The Hog Shop LI, probably on their site. I’ll check when I get home 🗽⚡️
Oh great many thanks in advance ✊✊✊
What jacket are you wearing under your vest?
That's just your standard Carhart nothing fancy
FXDLS Brooklyn It looks warm and badass
Half Dog yeah it’s good for like 35 degrees and up with layers 🔥
How’s the passenger like the seat
Alejandro Cariman no complaints! And we do some long rides! 🗽⚡️
Great review, what does your head measure in cm? I'm at 56cm and not sure on size. People say it runs large and then others say it's spot on
I need to do an update video on this topic - I think all this time, I should have sized down. When I run my Simpson these days, I notice that it feels noticeably loose. I would see if you can size down even if it is very snug in the beginning, and let it break in.
@@FXDLSBrooklynthanks bud, from next door in CT
k Pont right on! I go out there for East Coastin in the summer
@@FXDLSBrooklyn awesome hope to meet you then. Well I ended up getting the small. It's tight but fits, just needs to break in.
@@klat6636 I'm glad it worked out - I need to get another one some day soon in a small like you - until then, just going to rock my Simpson
Hi there bro, how about night ride with the mirror shield??
Definitely would. not recommend it. Swap to a clear if you're riding at night
@@FXDLSBrooklyn bro and between the simpson and the biltwell lane splitter which would you recomend? gracias Bro and saludos
Luis E. R. A. If we weren’t considering price, I would say the Simpson hands down - but if cost is a consideration, the lane splitter is a really great helmet for what you’re paying!
@@FXDLSBrooklyn hey Papa many thanks..!!! and size, is it true? so if Im M shoud I get M? gracias!!
@@luise.r.a.1220 Hey Luis - I'm a Medium in most helmets, but if I were to buy this helmet again, I would size down to a small and let it break in
I have a huge head. HUUUUGE head. :(
hows the mirrored visor for night?
Midnight Cruiser not so good, I usually flip it up or swap it out for clear if I’m doing a lot of night riding 🗽⚡️
gotcha..thanks alot
Is that a riding shirt or a regular shirt?
Hey dude, it's a Carhartt work jacket with a First MFG vest over it 🗽⚡️
@@FXDLSBrooklyn Thanks for the info. I am looking for a riding shirt/jacket with the pads that why I asked.
@@GruntHarley Check out the FirstMFG Cutlass or Vendetta, they have slots for pads and are great pieces. If you buy it off their site you can use my discount code:AC15
Only thing I need to know is the Simpson more quiet then the builtwell?
vetta17 I would say they’re close, but at the end of the day the Simpson is a loud helmet 🗽⚡️
Cant you take those white logos off?
I think?
That scratchy sound in the background was wack
Give me a time stamp of where you're referring to
