Neo tec 2 great write up, doesn’t fit me; it is uncomfortable.
Number 2 neo tec 2 med was too large for me
second one. Well I like the colour not the fit. Online forum recomended to change the cheek pads? at another expense. Nope still to tight squeezing my cheeks hurting my jaw and the clasp presses into my large adams apple.
Quite I will say quiter not really quite.
an Expense lesson bought online no help.
Would I recommend not for everyone need to try it before purchasing or the creek is long without a paddle

Owned an Arai (the DS version) and thought it was the worst helmet I ever owned. Almost glad I crashed in it and had to replace it. I’ve had four Sharks and am on my second Evoline. It is the best helmet I’ve ever owned with the previous Evoline being in second place. Now the venting works to keep the visor clear of fog. The rotating chin bar, the sunvisor, the fit, the ease of removing the clear visor…everything is top notch. And you don’t have to pay Shoei/Arai/Shuberth prices.

Some people need two editors, the second to correct the first …

Ooops – strike out the second “not”. It’s “not really supposed to be raised when you’re riding.” Thanks for catching. Everyone needs an editor!

If you have the whole front of the helmet flipped up while you ride, it gets blown about in the wind.

The Shark helmet is designed to rotate the whole chinbar assembly to the back of the helmet.

Huh ?
