Great helmet for the price and the transition lens is really nice. Got a link so others can get that same great deal too?

Hyena Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 This is a year old thread so sorry for bringing it from the dead but: I have a GT-Air and they are on sale right now at Revzilla for 350. Also, Schuberth's S2 elite, which would be the closest competitor is on sale there too for 400.

Guest Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 To each his own that’s for sure when it comes to helmets. I’m personally not a fan of modular helmets anymore as the weight bothers my neck. I think it’s a function of 2 things my increasing age and I now have the time to ride more than ever so I’m on the bike for longer. My wife of 25 years started riding last year. I bought her a modular and the first thing she said is it’s too heavy. I only mention this because no matter how strong your neck is there is no point adding stress to it and excessive weight on your head cannot be good in the event of an accident. All that said I’m not suggesting anyone stop using modular helmets if that’s what they like. I have used Shoei RF for the past several years and really like them. I could not imagine changing brands until I tried on an HJC. I have the RPHA 11 and I think my wife’s is a 70. Great quality, light weight and the visor optics are unbelievably good. My wife’s has a drop down visor, I opted for the one without. I never gave HJC much consideration but I am really please with these 2 helmets.

duhs10 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I recently replaced my helmet and went with the RPHA 70 ST. Very pleased with the quality. There are a lot of different designs to choose from as well. HJC RPHA 70 ST Helmet | 10% ($41.50) Off! ... 2 '15 FJ-09 w/ lots of extras...

Premium Member fjray Posted March 6, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted March 6, 2020 I have a Klim TK1200 I think it is. Very light for a modular and yes, the non modular is even lighter. But the cherry on top is the Transition lens with a pin lock too. Only thing I don't like is putting it on and taking it off. Very tight there but fits great once on your head. All day comfortable.

With the front flipped up, try grabbing the sides and flexing the shell outwards as you put the helmet on. One of the joys of modular helmets should be the ease of putting them on.

We should see a new gt air soon iam guessing as it’s getting old now Had mine for 5 years last year, newer version out last year so bought a discounted older version same as mine, best lid I've ever used! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgy Knees Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 I got myself a shark evo one 2 as a Christmas treat. Open or shut helmet on the go, and has become helmet choice for most rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was set on the gt air and gt air II and once i put on the RPHA 70 i was amazed at the fit and weight and the quality of the optics in the drop down sun visor. the price was close to half of and arai i liked too. i never thought i would buy and HJC helmet for the street after owning a few of their snowmobile helmets....didn't like them much 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had two others that went on real easily. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
