ILM Open Face Motorcycle Helmet DOT 726X

This is a great helmet, very comfortable and being able to remove the mask on the front is great. I’d recommend getting a size up from what you normally wear, it fits very snug

Received the helmet today. Needed something light that looks sporty, but doesn’t make me look like a bobble head character. This exceeded my expectations. Very plush padding. You can remove the sun visor and the helmet comes with 3 plugs to replace the screws that hold the sun visor in place for a cleaner look than just taking off the visor and reinserting the screws. If you use the sizing chart, the helmet won’t fit. As others have already stated, you need to order one size bigger for a perfect fit, and two sizes bigger if you intend to ride with any kind of glasses or shades on. This helmet at less than a $100 is a steal. After receiving mine and trying it on, I would pay $200 for this helmet if it were only being sold at that price. For reference, I own several motorcycle helmets from Shoei, Bell, KBC, HJC, to name a few. If you get the right size, I guarantee you will love 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.

This is a great helmet for the price. It looks so cool and yet is very comfortable and seems to fit well. I’m right in between the Medium and Large head measurements and I went with Large and it fits perfect!

I’m using this for an escooter that doesn’t go more than 50 MPH. I don’t know if I would use this helmet for a motorcycle that goes a lot faster because the chin guard piece is not DOT certified. Although it’s a hard plastic piece which is nice (unlike some other helmets where the chin guard is totally flexible like Scorpion), so it should provide some chin/jaw protection, but not as much as the rest of the helmet. For escooter or ebike purposes or even a motor scooter, this helmet should be fine.

I like how the shape of the helmet has some contours. Some other helmets are simply too round and bubble-like so you look like a mushroom or something. This helmet has a great shape to it. The chin strap with the release tab is just perfect also, no fooling around with a D-ring or anything like that.

The flip up visor is great and super convenient to open and close. I keep the top cap part on the helmet all the time as it does provide some further shielding from the sun. This piece is adjustable and removable however and they even give you some plastic plug pieces so put in the holes.

Wind noise is actually quieter than some other helmets I’ve tried, although it does start to get a bit noisy above about 45 MPH, unlike some full motorcycle helmets which can be almost totally silent at high speeds. Usually I’m not going super fast though so I barely even notice any wind noise.

You tend to look quite intimidating with the tinted visor down and people can’t see your face. When I’m walking my scooter out of my condo (or back in) I tend to flip the visor up so neighbors can see it’s me and they won’t get scared. This is also good if you want to stop and talk to someone, or you can even remove the chin guard piece as it comes totally off. It’s a bit tricky to put back on while you’re wearing the helmet though it’s possible.

In all, there probably is no such thing as a perfect helmet but for my needs, this helmet is nearly perfect, and at a great price!

After reading the other reviews about the helmet size I opted to buy an x-large. It’s the right fit but slightly tight. I think the reason why the helmets aren’t to big is because the helmet itself is pretty huge. If they made the helmets to large you’d look like a bobble head thus the sizes are this way. It feels pretty safe, the padding inside is heavy so I think if I got into some sort of crash, I do believe this helmet will protect me. It does look pretty awesome too, very happy with purchase. If I could exchange to a larger size I think I would have bought it.
