There are many, by the way, who believe that the C4 was intended as a replacement for the C3; that it was an upgraded model, but that was never the original thinking behind the C4. The C4 was originally conceived as a ‘sports’ flip-lid that would be better suited to those who leant a bit more forward over the bars. FIT - MaxFit Construction: This completely redesigned V-shaped ear pad construction immediately ensures a perfectly snug and comfortable instant fit.

If you’re born after 1975, visors are now mandatory. All players under 18 are also required to wear complete face protection in the form of either a full-face shield or a cage. Noise from the lid was a little higher than normal when I wore it on my Fazer, but was pretty average when riding the Triumph. If you don’t have any type of clamps, you can just try to improvise using a heavy object that could get in that pressuring position and stay there for that amount of time. Is it Legal to Mount a GoPro on a Motorcycle Helmet? An open-face, or ‘jet’ helmet is great in the summer, and the favourite of many custom, cruiser and even trail-bike riders, but it has no protection on the front so your face is vulnerable to stones and bugs (you’d be surprised how much a bee can hurt at 70mph). You do also need to be aware that in a crash, an open-face lid is far less protective than the other options. The bluetooth headset is generally basic but well liked and most users find INC great though some others are a bit meh about it. Momentum Evo BluetoothFirst up is a 12m video from J&P Cycles looking over the Momentum Inc Pro, followed by a 4m video of how one guy got on with his Momentum Evo after a couple of months.

Both helmets have easy-to-operate chin vents that do a good job of keeping the front of the face cooler and reducing fogging, but remember that if your bike has a screen it’s going to have a big impact on the amount of air reaching the vents. So far, all helmets meet DOT certification. The Momentum, Momentum Lite and Momentum Evo are also made in ECE spec too (don’t know if they’re indentical helmets or not tho).Shoei Glamster | The Glamster combines modern tech with a distinctly slim, retro style. Ventilation is limited, and the visor proved a little clunky, but if the looks appeal, it could be a good choice. And finally, the Shoei X-SPR Pro is made in four shell sizes. That’s a good number and it means you’re not going to be wearing a helmet shell that’s miles too big or too small and means the helmet you buy will be optimised for you in terms of fit, comfort and safety. The INC feature cancels out low end frequencies that you’ll find in wind rush to try and quieten the helmet down, while Ambient mode amplifies external sounds so you can chat to people without removing your helmet. I guess most buyers are gonna buy a Sena helmet because they’re looking for that seamless bluetooth integration without all the fiddling we usually have adding bluetooth kits and getting them to work properly. Both the Shoei Neotec II and the Schuberth C4 Pro have fully-removable linings that are easy to wash. The C4 Pro has an upgraded, more plush lining than the previous C4, but between the Shoei and the Schuberth there’s no discernible difference when they’re on the head; both are excellent.
