I just purchased mine, but it is on order as my color was not in stock. I did try the blue Apollo and was happy with the fit, though a bit snug on my ears...it does have the pump which seems to function well. I would say the helmet six=zing is on the small side. I wear a L Shoei and an XL Scorpion. In truth, I bought it for the drop down sun visor v. wearing sun glasses. I like the function so far and the visor seems to switch out much easier than my Shoei RF-1000. I got the Dark Gray Apollo...should be here in a couple of days...update later.

Did you get the helmet in yet? I have read some reviews with lots of positives, but would love to hear an unbiased 1st hand account. Curious about how well the visor works. Thanks for any info you care to share.

I had a caberg with the flip down visor and loved it, but parts were hard to get I am thinking of a exo 1000 to replace it but I have a full face and there is a couple of flip ups with the same visor systom. Mike

Has anyone commented on how it works with eyeglasses?

as an alternative anyone tried the hjc fs-10 with the internal visor?


I predict that these will become very common in the next 5 years or so.

Alchemy, - I wear glasses and tried one on, it fit as well or better than my current Arai Quantum F. Sun shade went up and down fine without interference.

I like the helmet, especially the "shade", but am concerned about all the "gizmo's". So I am leaning toward the lighter and slightly smaller 400 or 700 that I think will also be quieter.

Just bought one of these. A few comments:

Vents VERY well. I can actually feel the air hitting my head, especially from the top vents.

It's much quieter than the KBC VR1 Euro it replaced.

Sunshade could be darker.

Sunshade works as advertised, and does not contact my glasses or my large, crooked nose.

Levers to operate the sunshiel;d and outer shield lock/lift are hard to operate in winter gloves.

DB, I looked at the HJC, and the Scorpion has it beat hands down in quality. In fact, two of the displays at the store were broken.

Roadrailer what about sizing? I unfortunately do not have the luxury of trying one on before I buy it. I am normally a Medium, but am thing about a large.
