Kim Fanning Turon,  KS HJC open face helmet Very pleased. Fits snug, gives me the protection I wanted. I did find out in Rider Safety School that helmets must be replaced every 3-4 years because the styrofoam deteriorates and loses its protective qualities. I am very pleased with your service, the delivery speed, and your follow-up.

John milton,  WI Nice helmet Very satisfied with the purchase of this helmet. With the advice of my sister, I purchased this helmet as you can put on the face shield without tools.

David Killeen,  TX HJC-AC3 LOVE the FIT I'm a big guy and was concerned about the sizing and ordering this helmet online. But IT IS PERFECT. I've already put 1600 miles on it. I like its light feel and comfort on the ears. I also have an intercom system and this helmet is PERFECT for those in helmet speakers and microphone. The vent is a little weak but that is minor. I was surprised at a few paint "dings" caused by bugs and road stuff. But I’d rather it hit the helmet than my head though.

Billy Sparks Choctaw ,  OK HJC - AC-3 Helmet & Sheild I bought two, one for me and one for my wife. We both are very happy with them. The fit and comfort is good and unnoticeable when wearing them. We have not had any trouble with the units. Air vents work well and the mechanics of the vents is constructed well too. If this is your type of helmet I would recommend it.

Butch Richmond,  Northwest Wow, what a great helmet! The HJC AC-3 is not only DOT approved but also Snell approved. It is very well made, rugged and strong, but yet lightweight. The fit is snug but not too snug - I mean, not so tight that it gives you a brain cramp! The ventilation in the helmet is excellent and there is no road noise or howling or whistling either. Overall Opinion: It's a great helmet for those who do not like the fit/feel of a full face helmet. The HJC AC-3 is the cream of the crop as far as open face helmets go. I also opted fo

Butch Richmond,  New Brunsw Excellent helmet! Wow... what a great helmet! I needed a new helmet and was using an old Vega full face as a "loaner" helmet. The AC-3 helmet has such a great fit and the peripheral vision (almost 180* - maybe more!) is amazing. I decided to get the AC-3 after trying on a model in a motorcycle store (but not in the color I wanted). I opted for the clear full face visor too and that was easy to snap on and off too. There is no howling noise or fogging up, like in a full face helmet. The best part is you can br

Alex South Plainfield,  NJ AC-3 - I like it Ordered this after returning the Bell Mag-8. I really like my AC-3 (Matte). Though it looks a bit wide with just the visor (bobble head), I think it looks really good with the shield. BTW - I bought the dark tinted shield and can still ride at night with very little loss of vision in lighted areas. Paint is very good. Fit is a tiny bit tight but break-in should fix that. Very comfortable overall. Good face coverage by shield yet allows good airflow. Can wear shades with shield but I recommend th

Rob Brentwood,  TX AC-3 Helmet I measured my head and purchased accordingly. The size recommendations are small. I had this helmet on for about two minutes and the headache was too much to bear. It is well constructed, but it is quite a bubble. I felt like Jack (clown/ceo from jack in the box) or maybe George Jetson. I returned it and ordered a size up AC-2 which I love. This is a nice helmet feature-wise, but style leaves a little to be desired. If that's not an issue for you just make sure to order a little bigger the
