| I really like this helmet compared to my old full face helmet i was using. The modular design along with the quick release chin straps, make this helmet so much easier to take off and put on as i wear glasses. Also the built-in tinted visor is pretty handy, in case you forget or lose your sunglasses somewhere. The only reason i'm not giving this helmet 5 stars is because the tinted visor doesn't come down far enough to shade my eyes effectively; i have to tilt my head down and stare up through the visor. Could just be a problem for me or the fact that it's still new and hasn't worn in quite yet. So for the price it's a really convenient and versatile helmet that i would definitely recommend buying. |

| The first helmet I ordered was a little bit too small and one of the plastic latches for the flip up face piece was broken. I called customer service and they sent me a shipping label to send the helmet back and exchanged it for a larger size at no cost! I will continue to give my business to leatherup.com!
As far as fit, the helmet is a bit snug even with the correct size. I have worn it for about 6 rides now and it is starting to fit as it should. The wind noise is a little higher than I was expecting. And something that I did not even thing to look at, there is no helmet hook to latch to my bike. The quick release system is great, but I am going to have to find a way to secure it to my bike so I don't have to carry it everywhere. |

| I am extremely glad I bought this helmet. Let me start off with the colors. The overall design of the graphics isn't over the top. It's a nice subtle design that doesn't involve skulls, guns, the grim reaper, etc. Having a modular helmet is useful when talking to other people or getting your helmet fully adjusted before going for a ride. The quick release is easy to use with gloves on or off. The built in shades is the greatest addition to a helmet you could ask for. You don't have to worry about comfortably fitting a pair of sunglasses with your helmet. You just flip the switch and you have a cool fighter pilot look as you ride. You can see the looks on people's eyes as they try to figure out who that mysterious rider is. The vents give great airflow keeping your head cool in hot temps. My only issue is how easily my screen fogs up. I usually have to ride with it up one click while I ride around base to keep it from getting fogged up too much. I am sure at higher speeds, this won't be an issue. I am usually going 30 mph and there is not quite enough airflow to keep the fog down. Other than that, this helmet is great. The padding is extremely comfortable and it took no time at all to break in. |

| I bought this for my wife and although it wasn't a comfortable as my HJC this helmet saved my wife's life. We dumped my bike on a ride and both my wife and i hit head first when we crashed. Other than some broken ribs, a few bruises and three days in the hospital, we walked away... The helmet did it's job and looked good doing it...... The only reason for the four stars was the comfort level, a bit more padding and it would be five stars all the way..... |

| Great helmet, I did have to order a larger size in this helmet then I have in other Hawk helmets I have ordered. I really like the shaded lens, and I do wear glasses and never have a proble withe the inner visor hitting them. The quick relese strap is probalie my favorit feature, make me more likly to wear it on a short trip to the store becase it is soooo easy to take it on and off, and with it being a modular I don't even have to remove my glasses when taking it off or on. I am really happy with this helmet and would recomened it to anyone who wants a nice low cost modular.
Once again Leather up was fantastic to work with, I did have to send my fist helmet back because it was to small and had a small defect. They sent me a return ticket to my email quickly and I had my new larger perfact helmet with in a week!! Thanks leather up. |

| I am completely satisfied with this helmet. It looks good, seems very well made, and everything works as advertised. The internal shades are a little stiff in moving and don't want to go all the way back up with the little slide on the side of the helmet sometimes, but it's not a big problem. The vents work well to keep the helmet cool and the visor fog-free. They're small, but sufficient for the task. The lining is very well made, and the ratcheting neck strap is very convenient. Lift up on the little tab provided, and the strap releases easily even with gloves on, without the need to fuss with D rings. |

| As always Leatherup is fantastic. They get a 5 star rating. The helmet gets 4 stars. It's a great starter helmet. It is my first full face and the modular design helps a great deal, for those of us that are used to smaller helmets. Its a great looking helmet with beautiful design. The drop drown sunvisor is the greatest thing ever invented. The quality is not so great. The sealing rubber around the face shield came off after a few weeks of continued use. It fogs very easily and have to ride with the shield up a bit. The noise level is high when riding at faster speeds. It sounds like flags waving in the wind rattling around your head. But still, for the money, and for those trying out full face designs, you can't go wrong. |
