Wil Atlanta,  GA Decent Helmet for the price. Tight fit. Like others have noted, the helmet is way too snug in the cheek area. Not for the jolly, round-faced type. I had to alter the cheek pads to fit my face. I was beginning to develop a Zoolander face after 10 seconds! Get a size bigger.

Ted Ames,  IA great value Fit is kind of tight around my cheeks, tighter when the flip-up is closed. I ordered an XL helmet but I guess I have a fat head. There were a couple Velcro straps (around the eyes, coming from the sides), and I couldn't figure out what the purpose of those straps are. The instruction manual lacked reference of those straps. Ground shipping took a long time to get through the western US, but I had online tracking, which was very helpful. Cost benefit deserves a 10.0/5.0, considering that this helmet saved me at least $150 over the local motorcycle shops (most of which are geared towards Harley-Davidson gear).

Daniel Hampton,  VT good helmet Cool design, color matches my bike. Flip up design is cool, but switching out visors is a tad cumbersome.

paul remick kingston,  NY great value I’m always skeptical buying items online but I have to say that I was very satisfied with this helmet. Great value, it was about $50 cheaper then helmets at my nearest motorcycle dealer. Looks good too. Free delivery, can’t go wrong with this helmet. Buy it.

Maria Toronto,  ON Great Value This is the second AFX I bought because I loved the first one (in pink). Just got a light blue one and love the look and value of this helmet. I have to say that this one doesn't open and close as well as the first one, but still love it.

Dina Philadelphia,  PA Completely Satisfied!!! Let me just tell you how I first ordered the helmet in blue but decided that because my favorite color is actually red, that I should have ordered the red, so I did! I just want to let everyone know that I am completely satisfied with this helmet. Not only was the cost efficient, but the fit is perfect. Great choice if you decide! Thanks.

Jonathan Lopez benton,  LA good buy It’s a good helmet for the price. My bottom vent broke after a few weeks but nothing else. Fits great! It looks awesome, pads could be softer but it’s overall a great helmet!

Andy Williams Blair,  NE Review This was a pretty inexpensive helmet. I love the look of the helmet, however like with other gloves I bought on this site, I followed their scale on the website and it’s a little too small but it works. It fits well enough to wear and will make a good helmet for my passengers. For its price, I love the helmet. The padding inside of it could be a little softer but it’s not bad.

Alex Humphries Corner Brook,  NL AFX - FX - 97 This helmet is awesome. Perfect snug fitting design makes it so comfortable, it's amazing. I love it. Ten times better than the one I got from Yamaha which cost twice as much.
