Brent Saco,  ME Lots of wind noise for $$$$ As a first time rider I really have no comparison. But it seems like a lot of wind noise for such an expensive helmet. Maybe it's because it's modular I don't know but that is the biggest complaint. Other than that I love the build in sun visor.

Jeff honolulu,  HI Better than Nolan Bought this after returning the Nolan Outlaw. Unlike the Nolan helmet, the quality of the lining is very good. The soft micro-fleeced fabric makes it comfortable. The size chart is on the money. A little snug at first but breaks in well. The sun visor can stay down while the face shield is open, also while the chin bar is flipped up. All the stickers come off easily, if you like your helmet clean like me. The sun visor could be darker, and the chin strap pad could be longer. Other than those two minor points it's a very good helmet. I would buy it again.

David Ganung Lake Stevens,  WA HJC-Sy-MaxII Modular Helmet It was a very tight fit to begin with; both ears would get soar if I wore the helmet for over 2 hours straight. Air flow could be better. Here in Washington we get fogged up visors to over heated heads when going from the west side to the east side of the state. I had to lift the face shield to either clear the fog from my breath or cool my head in the heat. Very good looking helmet, I really like the dark internal face shield for riding in the sunny weather. It easily retracts when the sun goes down or a cloud covers it. I would recommend this helmet to anyone who wants a full face helmet. IT IS GREAT, once it gets broke in.

Adam Rockford,  IL Noisy but nice Great helmet size is advertised. Weight hasn't been a issue for me, I have heard some complaints but find it comfortable. Features are great, easy to operate with gloves. This helmet is a modular so there is noise as with all modulars. It actually amplifies when closed, as all of them do. The visor is rock solid open, and the chin in the up position is rock solid works great.

DANNY SANTAQUIN,  UT HJC-SY-MAX II HELMET THIS HELMET IS FANTASTIC. IT FITS LOW ON THE HEAD AND IS VERY COMFORTABLE, THE EAR POCKETS ARE A FANTASTIC FOR SPEAKERS. THE SUN SHADE IS EXCELLENT FOR DAY RIDING AND NOT HAVING TO CHANGE FACE SHEILDS WHEN IT GETS DARK IS A BONUS. I AM BUYING THIS HELMET AGAIN FOR MY WIFE, AND IF I NEED TO I WELL DEFINATELY PURCHASE THIS HELMET AGAIN FOR MYSELF.

Jim Schneider DeSoto,  IA cheek squeezer I’ve had the helmet for only three weeks and like it very much. The sun visor is effective but not as much as a previous retractable visor helmet I have owned, but also cost is now over $600. The only other problem is the too fat/thick cheek pads squeeze my cheeks too much but with constant compression overnight it seems to be getting better or I am just getting used to it. I think it is well worth the money!

John Parsons Moose Jaw,  SK Sy-Max II The XL fits my 7 1/2 inch head perfectly. Ventilation is adequate, but cooling vents could be better. The shield is good, but stiff to open, resulting in using the entire chin-bar most of the time. There are better helmets, but not anywhere close to this price.

Gene Millsboro,  DE Nicely designed helmet I recently purchased a new motorcycle and had not been on two wheels in years, so this was my first helmet purchase in a long time. I decided I wanted to try the modular design, and I'm glad I did. It comes in handy all the time when I need to hear a little better, or talk to someone but don't want to have to take the helmet off. Everything is nicely designed.
