M2R GP-1 Helmet
I couldn't be more pleased with this helmet. Prior reviews indicated that it ran smaller than indicated by size, but my opinion is that it's right on with measurement. Has to be snug or it won't be safe. I got it on clearance, so I couldn't beat the price ($350 helmet for $99). Prior reviews also said the matte finish scratches easily. I'm not sure on this yet as I'm very careful with it and always put it back in the helmet sleeve when I'm done wearing it.This is a very cool helmet.

Best I've had
I've owned many helmets. Nava, Arai, Bell plus more, and I feel the M2R is the best quality and price of anything I’ve owned. Some complain about the fit being too tight, but I prefer it that way.

Excellent helmet with excellent features. Purchased as close out. I know my size and it fit perfectly. I love the color and design. I was hoping for a little more air flow, but, I ride in central Florida in the summer. I am not sure that any full face helmet could ventilate that much!, and still provide any protection. This is not my only purchase from the motorcycle superstore. Everything that I have received has been exactly what I expected and shipped quickly. Thanks!

Awesome
Let's face it, I was looking for a $100 helmet and was very surprised with this helmet, especially because it is tough to buy a helmet online. However, I measured my head at 23 inches and the fit guide suggested Large. I was concerned after reading some of the reviews about the general small fit of the helmet, but mine fit snug but well. After speaking to a friend who has been riding for nearly all his life, many people get freaked out when a helmet is snug, however, that is what you want. I have to admit once I first put it on it was snug, but after a few hours of riding the foam expands to allow for a nice comfortable fit.

My mew helmet is a far cry better than the cheapy I bought on short notice just so I'd have one to ride with when I bought my bike. I Love it and might just buy another just like it when it wears out!

Best bang for your Buck!!!
I love the air flow kept my head cool on more than one occasion better I think than those high priced helmets out on the market, the fit is spot on the size runs a little small so you'll want to get the next higher size or you'll definitely get a headache when you take it off. The graphics are awesome and my lid stands up well to the bugs that hit the shield, If you go to the M2R web site you will be directed to vendors in your area so getting that smoke visor is possible you just have to look for them.

M2R, GP1 helmet
This is a great helmet though I recommend ordering 1 size up from your hat size. I did and it fits excellent. Its light, visibility is excellent, air flow could be better but is still good (leaving face shield slightly open helps a lot. I'm very impressed for the price point. The helmet feels like part of my head, very secure and a pleasure to wear. I also like the additional features, an excellent buy.

everything but
Everything is good except a very slight touch and the top left air flow is cracked and it scratches very easy. Going to use it for the drag strip because of the price.

M2R good helmet bad helmet
1. Helmet looks good
2. Shell easy to scratch
3. Inlets are plentiful, and easy to reach
4. Shield is not fog resistant at all!
5. Padding is sufficient, but scratchy!
When I receive the helmet, the plastic holding the padding was torn away from the inside of the helmet, I needed to superglue it back together. Other then that, the helmet is ok, less noisy then my HJC. .

Nice Helmet
Order maybe a couple sizes larger. I ordered this one size larger than I currently had, but it was still too way too small.

Great Helmet
The fit of this helmet is very snug and secure. It feels nice and light while riding. It is a very quiet helmet also. I think this helmet rates with much more expensive brands.

Great helmet, however accessories, such a tinted windscreens, are hard to find.

Great price for a Snell 2005 certified helment
Double check your hat size before ordering and save yourself the trouble of having to exchange for the correct size. The plastic tabs that hold the liner in above the view port slipped out when I put it on the first time. I super-glued the tabs back in the place and the helmet is in perfect shape now. I'm comforted knowing my noggin is well-protected.

This is a very nice helmet. It fits very well. It runs a little on the small size so you may want to go a size larger that most helmets. The only real problem that I have had is finding visor replacements and upgraded visors. Otherwise, this was a good purchase for me. Also, I have gotten many compliments on it.

Worth the sale price
This is a nice looking helmet. Its light weight, and quieter then the Bell I was using.
But after ordering it, I have found the shields are almost impossible to find, and if you can find them they will cost you almost a third of what you paid for the helmet. The flat color finish looks good, but shows the slightest rub marks. Even a fingernail will leave a large scuff mark on it. All in all, it’s a good buy, but check on parts before you order.

Face shield
Lock switch would not remain locked and face shield flew off in heavy traffic.

Sizing
This web site had by far the lowest price for this helmet, which is why I purchased it.
As far as the fit is concerned it's horrible for me. When I received the helmet I immediately tried it on and found it overly tight and it left the tip of my chin exposed, thus partly nullifying wearing a helmet. According to M2R sizing chart I should wear an XL but in reality a XXL would have fit a lot better. I don’t know if there would be better coverage on my chin but again it may have been the shape of my head. I'll probably stick with SHOEI in the future. Ride Safe!

M2R Helmet
This helmet is a very comfy helmet. Other helmet is a HJC CL-15 and feels like my head is in a clamp. This helmet feels very comfortable. Has posts for tear offs. Also finding replacements shields is not easy. Looking, but still haven’t found them. I rated all 5’s on this helmet, too bad finding accessories for it are next to impossible.
