Bobby Hayes Orlando,  FL Perfect!... almost This is a great helmet. I've removed the clear visor and use only the retractable tinted visor. I wear my prescription glasses underneath, so no need for sunglasses unless you want to double up when the sun is low. I wish the visor was tinted darker, or had other tints available. I also with it had an optional brow sunvisor one could install. Great features for the price! I have two silver ones, and one wine berry to match my wine Victory Vision!

Mark Escondido,  CA Big, Big Fan of this Helmet & HJC! My first helmet was a modular by HJC. It was a great value, and I've got tons of use out of it. I have a Fullface Arai but wanted to add an Open-face helmet to the mix. The Arai equivalent was $400+. I am super stoked on the IS-33. HJC has come a long way in the 5 years since I picked up my modular. The lining is phenomenal. Fit me perfectly and in accordance with sizing chart. The style is awesome, as well as the features. The price can't be beat. Super stoked on it! Equally stoked with HJC. Got my eye on the FS-15 as well. I love riding with the IS-33. Haven't worn anything else since I got it. Highly recommend.

Debra DeWitt Redding,  CA HJC-IS-33 Helmet I love the sun shade that you can raise and lower on the helmet. It has great visibility on the sides and so far I love this thing. The price was very good also. I would buy this again in a heartbeat!

John Hemet,  CA IS-33 Helmet I needed an open face helmet for my work as a motorcycle ref at bicycle races. This helmet works great for that application. After riding with this helmet for some time now, it has become my main helmet when commuting to work. It is comfortable and pretty quite. But what has sold me on this helmet is the amount of visibility you have when riding in traffic. You may give up some protection that a full face helmet offers, but you can see whats happening around you much better. I also like the built in sun shade. I don't need sunglasses with this helmet. Overall a great helmet for a great price.

Tom Lucas,  TX HJC-IS-33 Helmet I bought it one size larger that my other HJC helmets and it still runs small. I tried another on in a store that was 2 sizes larger and it is still a tight fit. I think they got their sizing wrong. I have 3 other HJC helmets all size large but this Extra Large IS-33 is very tight and so is the Double Extra Large.

Sheila Golder Hughesville,  PA Great Helmet This helmet is excellent, only one place for improvement really and that is the inside shade could stand to be a little darker. But as is, it is still excellent, just enough tint to tone the suns glare down. I am very happy with this helmet.

Dennis Crowe Frostburg,  MD HJC - IS -33 Helmet This is a great helmet, it fits perfectly and is super comfortable. The built in sun visor is a really handy feature. It eliminates the struggle of wearing sun glasses with your helmet. I would recommend this helmet to anyone.
