Hi all!
Looking for suggestions from you all about a helmet to fit a friend who is looking to get into riding with me.
We've gone to the shop to try a few on, and he seems to have a round shaped head and needs a XXXL (which reduces his choices somewhat). He'd like a flip-up full face with integrated sunvisor. He wears glasses, so any visor needs to be friendly with them.
He's gravitating towards an HJC IS-Max BT. However reading some online reviews suggest that it's kinda noisy.
I've also researched a Scorpion EXO-500 (they also make a XXXL). Haven't been able to find one for him to try so if any of you use this helmet, some comments would be most appreciated.
Also, anyone who wears a full face (preferably flip), and has a integrated sunvisor other than the two I mentioned please speak up.
We're going to be attempting some day trips and when he builds his skills and confidence - some moderate weekend touring. We'll be using a bluetooth intercom system (most likely a SENA SMH10).
Thanks!
