      I’m going to get the identical helmet, but in blue, as soon as my favorite store receives the helmets they ordered.
      Apparently there is a supply problem caused by Shoei in Japan due to COVID-19.
      That was my store’s excuse for not having an adequate stock of Shoei helmets.

Easy to snack and drink water while fueling up, blow your nose, etc. It is comfortable and quiet (when my comm is off). Best part is the quick release! Thanks for the video! Keep on keeping safe!

    I've had this helmet for about a year now. I love it. I was getting a pressure point on my forehead for a little while when it was newer but now it seems fine. I can wear it for hours and never get tired of it. Sometimes I'll ride with the visor up and the sunglasses down. Sound suppression is great also.

    Like mine have a G Max ! They said not to do this but I painted the bottom 1 !/4 of clear shield so when riding into sun can pull clear shield down and block sun at horizon, pull all the way down and see just fine, be sure your not blocking your peripheral view on sides when doing this! Tape off first and scuff up inch to be painted use plastic spray paint! Use tinted inside shield for sunglasses and ride into sun without discomfort, love it! Use bottom painted part to raise and lower with no finger prints!

    First bro let me say that I can tell the effect that your time off has had, absolutely great to see how happy you seem to be through the screen lately.
    Second I can’t agree more with the different helmets for different purposes argument, yes the full face is for track but cruising and teaching, modular cannot be beat. FortNine did a great video of best modular helmets in 2018, may have updated it by now but the principle remains the same. Utility, safety, comfort, and like you I can tell the different between 3 lbs 5 ounces and 3 lbs 15 but I don’t notice the difference once it’s on my melon. Cheers

    There’s a good reason why modular helmets aren’t allowed on racetracks. Safety! They are comfortable and convenient but may fail during a hard impact. Just ask my cousin. He hit the pavement so hard that it popped open during the crash. His face and bank account will never be the same. And yes, he was wearing one of the “high end” Shoei modular helmets last year when he almost lost his life. Let’s not forget the MAIN REASON why we wear a helmet. Comfort and convenience will always be important, but living to ride another day should always be at the top of everyone’s list. Take care and be safe.

We’re each wearing close to $3,000 worth of gear every time we get on our motorcycles and it’s still dangerous.

Ready to test it out thoroughly. My old hlemet was a size too small and really hurt my head after even a short ride. This will improve my comfort as well as extreme road noise. I have struggled with wind noise when I do videos on my bike and I'm hoping this will vastly reduce that aspect.

First a BMW System 1, then Nolan N100 then Schuberth C-3 Pro and E1. I still wear sunglasses and additionaly use the internal sun visor when riding into the sun. Works quite well.

    Greg our SSNB courses are comprised of a Thursday night classroom with old videos from MSF. Friday night on the pavement, get the students into first gear. Saturday all day and Sunday morning are lessons. Sunday afternoon is practice then we do the riding tests. Once a student passes the tests, he or she goes and does the written and eye tests for a Graduated license with four restrictions. A year later they can do a road test for a full license. Courses every weekend from end of April to early October. I teach about five courses a season.

    I just got a new helmet. The old one was open face.
    I like the modular. Plus I got white one because it's July in FL so it looks a little like a Stormtrooper.
    Also it's easier to be seen, especially at night, and everyone has black helmets so it's unique.

      I have a Shark modular helmet which flips all the way to the back & It's legal to ride with it open, but ones like in this video are illegal to ride with it open & the wind resistance would be dreadful. The downside with mine is it's noisy & I'm not comfortable with ear plugs.

    Another nice thing about shoei is you can get thicker liners for about $100. I too have the medium neotec2 and after a year or so padding compressed a bit. I ordered thicker new liner and it made a difference. I too have a full face for the track but it is a size smaller. I find helmet needs to be extra snug on the track. Thanks for video Greg.

    I see that your helmet leans forward and down over your right eyebrow. Is it noticable to you? I have a Sena Outrush that does the same thing as soon as I sweat (30 seconds in FL) and its extremely irritating. Would like to know if that Shoei padding stays dryer in humid weather.

      That's the risk...but this one seems pretty solid. We all have risks to take. For me, it’s worth the risk. For others maybe it’s not. However those people, many of them who talk all day about safety, don’t even take more courses or practice anything...so it seems hypocritical to me.

    Welcome to the world of modular helmets! I understand for some people having 3 different types, plus 3 different types of gear can be expensive. I’ve also got and had the 3 different types for nearly 30 years and they are all great and “fit for purpose”. However, if you’re not planning on dirt bikes or track days then the convenience of a modular is great. Is it as safe as a complete full face? No. They never will be. However, if you are just casually riding on the street and getting on and off your bike then they are great. I also don’t use the transition drop down sunglass replacement for the same reasons as mentioned in this. Great work. 👍😎🇦🇺

  • @eyesonly4451
    @eyesonly4451 Рік тому

    I wear a Neotec II when driving the Wing. I much prefer it over my original HJC full face. It's a bit heavier, but the fact that I can (legally) ride open face in slow traffic, or with the shield up and sun visor down, etc. gives me lots of options on a any combination of a hot/cold, wet/dry, bright/overcast day.
    Initially, I installed the integrated Sena SRL2, with less than happy results. Wind noise seemed too high and I had to be pretty aggressive on volume to hear anything. A CarPlay phone call at 60 MPH was not happening. When Sena came out with the newer SRL-MESH, I immediately swapped it and wow! What a difference. The SRL-MESH has Harman Kardon speakers and better active noise control. Also, the HK speakers are 3mm thicker than the originals. So they sit a bit closer to the ears, filling that swirling air cavity just outside my ears. This also contributes to better overall wind noise reduction.

    Modular helmets are extremely convenient when crossing the border or after being pulled over by law enforcement. They always ask you to remove your helmet. Not so with modular helmets in my experience. For me, it's just the convenience factor.
