ILM Open Face Motorcycle 3/4 Half Helmet for Dirt Bike Moped ATV UTV Motocross Cruiser Scooter DOT Model 726X (Matte Black,L)

Okay so I absolutely love the look of this helmet. I almost didn’t purchase it because of the negative reviews posted. I did notice a common complaint across those reviews. Which was the size being smaller than “normal”. I was aware of that with this manufacturer as I’ve purchased helmets in this brand before. That seemed like an easy fix to me. I purchased one size bigger and it fits perfectly snug. It feels more protective to me than my previous helmets. This helmet has plenty of ventilation. You can even remove the mouth piece for additional ventilation. I’ve not had an issue with fogging with this style. The only thing that bothered me is that there isn’t any chin protection. Considering id broken my jaw on my last accident, and that was with a full helmet on. I wish that was designed better but other than that. I absolutely love this helmet. The style is fun and attention grabbing. It’s sleek and stylish. It’s also much more comfortable than what I’ve experienced in other helmets. The inside padding seems much thicker than previous experiences.I highly recommend Thai product but again, keep in mind that you need one size bigger and that there isn’t any chin protection with this helmet.

I really like this helmet. It's comfortable, stable and I have a bigger range of view with a slight blue tint that protects my eyes from the sun, but also I can see well at night. I love that you can take push the visor (not sure if that's the right word) back into the helmet rather than it being over the helmet. It helps to keep it clean. I like the look of it and it's pretty well ventilated as well as you have the option to close the little vents. The only thing that I will say negatively about it is, I had originally purchased my for my husband and it ended up being too small for him, despite it being their biggest size. Its not a terrible thing since I ended up keeping it lol. I'm assuming that's why they have alot of people returning their helmets. I'm sure that most of those people just wanted to swap out the size. I like that it's also DOT approved. It's not super heavy and I like the fact that it look cool and fits well on me. To give you an idea. I'm 5'5 woman, normal head size and a little under 175lbs. Hope that helps.

INITIAL IMPRESSIONS: Out of the box, seems pretty decent. The build feels good for a sub-$100 helmet. Instructions are vague on all of the helmets functionality. The visor flips fairly easy, but the tab to lift is on the left (clutch side) which could be a problem if stopped. Chin bar removes and installs pretty easy and can be done with the helmet on. This helmet comes with a quick release which is nice. FIT IS SNUG AND RUNS SMALL. I usually wear a Large, but an XL fits just as snug as an L from AFX or Scorpion would. BE SURE TO MEASURE YOUR HEAD! It's easy to do and will save you future headaches if you have a larger head. The foam feels solid and the liner is the softest I have ever seen offered in a helmet. Time will tell as to how it works out in regards to airflow and moisture wicking. Overall, pre ride impressions are good, I will update with a post-ride review later.POST-RIDE: So, the helmet is ok. I ride a Yamaha XSV950 Bolt, so going fast isn't a problem. The wind noise above 40mph is pretty bad, especially if you look to the side. The helmet is extremely stable at speed even with the peak visor and it isn't heavy (however I would not want to have it on for long rides). The tab to lift the visor being on the left (clutch) side and not the right (brake) side is a major nuisance which won't be a problem for those who have automatic clutches. The lens is crystal clear and has excellent visibility, and is easy to wipe off with a glove. My biggest complaint has to be that there is ZERO room for a Sena SMH10 (or other bluetooth unit). Can't put the clamp mount on, and there is no room in the ears whatsoever for a speaker; there's barely enough room for your ears. And because of this, getting glasses on is a pain.OVERALL: It is a good budget helmet and will save you a few hundred bucks over buying a Scorpion or Shark. However if open roads and speed over 40 are your game you may want to look into a quality brain bucket. 7/10

This helmet straight up saved me from some REALLY rough injuries. I ride high speed electric scooters (the kind that REALLY move, 30+ MPH) and at one point got tossed over the handlebars going very fast. I landed very nearly face first in a pile of sharp rocks. I suffered zero injuries to my head and face - the rest of me was a little banged up, but not my head.It looks cool. It's customizable (can take off the mouth guard, raise/lower the visor, etc). Easy to put on/take off and comfortable to wear. Lets a little air flow through so you're not melting inside the helmet. The visor tint and sun shield help in bright conditions. It looks cool. And, of course, as mentioned, can REALLY come in handy in crash situations.Worth the price and as far as I can tell will keep you safe.
