    I just went from a Harley Road Glide Ultra to a Suzuki DR650 for dual sport adventure riding and motocamping. So I'm having to shop for that kind of gear now. Thank you very much for this helmet review. I was already considering this helmet and you just made my mind up. Thank you!

    I have the MIPS system in my cycling helmet. My friend and I were cycling and end up crashing both of us slammed our heads on the road. I hit the back of my head on the concrete and cracked the helmet. We were traveling between 17-20mph. I did get a minor concussion and my friend who didn’t have the helmet with the mips system was a lot more severe.
    My next motorcycle helmet will have the mips system. Big fan of mips

    I’ve had the MX-9 adventure for four years now. Can conrfirm with Staci that glasses fit under just fine for me as well and my mongo head. Lift from the visor also minimal on all of my bikes. Cardo’s JBL speakers are a little thick though and I can feel them just touching my ears a bit on longer rides. YMMV.

    I wear eyeglasses and my main pair have solid arms which are not comfortable to put with the helmet, luckily I have old ones with flexible arms and they are perfect, so get one of those if you wear eyeglasses, as for sunglasses IDK but the tinted face shield is more than enough for me against the harsh sun, the helmet does squeeze a solid line on my forehead each time i wear it but overall an outstanding helmet for great price.

    Hi Stacy. Good review! Two quick questions:

    How is wind noise on the highway? I know an ADV helmet won't be as quiet as a road helmet, but how does this stack up against other ADV helmets in your opinion?

    • @ridetofood
      @ridetofood  Рік тому +1

      Personally, it doesn’t bother me much. I just listen to music and I’m fine. But that’s with my height and windshield set up in mind. Everyone’s going to have a different experiences. With that being said this is the only ADV helmet I’ve worn so I don’t have a fair opinion in regards to comparison. Hope this helps!

      With earplugs in, almost any helmet becomes quiet. Wind buffeting is still an issue with some designs.

    • @allanromeo75
      @allanromeo75 10 місяців тому +1

      I see the answer is not straight to the point. The noise is terrible. Overall nice helmet but you need to wear earplugs.

    hi, so is anyone taking about the 1698g the helmet is weighting? i have this helmet now for two years and have to admit it is nice. BUT: it is waay to heavy in my opinion, for just road riding it is ok but if you go to more offroad tracks its just too heavy!
    what is your opinion on the weight, and i tried to get rid of some stuff, but still heavy
    cheers

    • @ridetofood
      @ridetofood  Рік тому

      Depends what size your helmet is...an XS and an XL are going to weigh different amounts which is why it's not mentioned. Plus, it doesn't bother me on or off road. Everyone's different. Hope you find one that works for you! :)

    • @DaddySizeIt

      not sure what you mean. It's about the same as everything else. The Arai XD-4 is 3.66lb, this one is 3.74lb. Sounds like that extra tenth of a pound has you hurting. Maybe find some dedicated motorcross helmet.
