Matthew Kraft Normal,  IL Solid compromise I wear prescription glasses and full-face helmet is a pain in the back-side to put on and take off with glasses, so I always rode with a 3/4 helmet. Then I saw the flip up lids. Nice compromise. I can leave my glasses on when puttin' the lid on and off. Visor is bigger than my old full-face so I have better peripheral vision too.

John Roberts West Memphis,  AR HJC - CL - Max Helmet Very happy with the helmet. Fit is very good and the modular style suits me. You do not have to remove your glasses to put on the helmet which is good. It is somewhat hot during the heat of the summer.

hank mountain view,  CA so far so good This is my first helmet, so I really don’t have much to compare it to, other than the helmets from MSF. I like this helmet much more than those from MSF. For one thing, it was cleaner. Another thing is, the helmets from MSF felt like they were crushing my head... quite a tight squeeze. Anyway, my experience with this helmet has been good so far. The fit is comfortable. I don't really notice the wind too much... when I ride, I expect it to be noisy. Haven’t had the helmet too long, so I can't say much about durability. The visor does get fogged up, but it’s primarily when the bike is going really slow.

Zoran Whelan Tydall AFB,  CA Great Helmet The helmet fit a little tight around the cheeks when I first tried it on, but within one day of riding, it is one of the most comfortable helmets I've worn. I especially like to be able to flip the face up when I need to talk or when I've stopped for a minute to cool off.

Ron Keeth Aurora,  CA CL-Max Helmet I have found this helmet to be everything I wanted. The fit (helmet size chart is accurate), style, performance and appearance are excellent. The helmet shell is larger than I expected but I believe the helmet meets and exceeds all of my expectations.

R6 Rider Tallahassee,  CA HJC Modular Helmet Good price, comfy and doesn't weigh a lot on the head. Good things. So here are some of the things I don't like… After some use now the flip up squeaks a little bit and it wants to drop down. When I'm crouched in super tuck mode on my sport bike you can see the top of the helmet and it obstructs my view partially, and the visor fogs up bad at night especially - in colder weather.

Jesse Chicago,  CA HJC CL Max helmet So far, this is working out to be an excellent helmet for the money—as have all the HJC helmets I’ve owned. It’s really comfortable, and the flip up front opens easily, which I love. I’m not as crazy about the ratchet on the visor, which is so stiff it feels (and sounds) like you’re going to break the thing off whenever you try to open it all the way. It does seem to be freeing up with use, though, as it’s already better than when it was brand new. Note: I needed one size larger on this model th

Kathy Havre de Grace,  AR HJC-Max Helmet Nice helmet. I too wear glasses, and the flip up is much more compatible with eyeglass wear. The shield is a little difficult to open by itself, but the flip up makes up for it. Nice fit, comfortable & nice field of vision. My only complaint was that there were some scratches on the face shield when I got it. They were under the protective film, so it obviously came from the factory that way, and I didn't have time to return or exchange it.

Dustin Merritt Island,  MD Worth the price and more. I bought this helmet because I wear glasses, and I'm here to tell all of us 4 eyed riders that this is the helmet for us. It's extremely comfortable, and the flip up allows me to keep my glasses on all the time. I ride on I-95 a lot, and this lid is no more or less noisy than my Icon Mainframe. (Also a good buy) It has a wider field of vision, and it keeps my head cool in the Florida heat. Good buy.
