| A good helmet for the price !!!... Brought it primarily for the Bluetooth capabilities and it works great for talking but and the music output is pretty decent ... Not Bose speaker !!!.. Lol ... I use helmet to navigate thru NYC Midtown traffic and for the most part it has a slightly restrictive field of view with the rubber wind guard that sticks up a little but is not to bad.... The helmet is pretty good in reducing wind and road noise but could ventilate a little better but would still recommend to others !!! |

| Seems to be a solid helmet for the price.
The sun visor is great. The speakers aren't the best and can't be heard very well at high speeds, but the bluetooth works as advertised. While I think the chin strap padding is a little annoying, the helmet is quite comfortable overall. |

| Was a nice helmet 5 mins into my first ride with the helmet a car pull out infront of me and put me in the hospital for 2 weeks. The helmet was split down the middle but I came thru with no head or neck injurys. It save my life. |

| The helmet is a good helmet. I love the built-in sun-visor and I love the modular style. It has a very comfortable fit and it offers everything I was looking for in a helmet at a very affordable price. Here are the only complaints I have:
1- There was a small scratch on the visor when I got it. There was also a very little scratch on the back of the helmet that stuck out when it was new due to the flat black finish. Now that I've used it a bit, the scratch doesn't stand out as bad.
2- The chin strap is kind of annoying because it doesn't latch very easily. I have to mess with it a lot every time I use the helmet in order for it to latch properly.
3- The built-in Bluetooth seems to go in and out a lot while I'm using it and when I'm riding over 25 mph, it is too windy for the person on the other end of the call to hear what I'm saying. I have never used any other Bluetooth device in a helmet, so I don't know how it compares to other products out there, but I mostly just use it to listen to music that's on my phone. |

| Very stylish look. The cloth chin cover gets in the way when the face is up. The visor can be difficult to open, as is the front air vent, as is the face plate button. The bluetooth works easily, although the buyer needs to install the battery, which was a little tricky (tight fit, and unclear which way the battery is supposed to face when inserted).
THE BLUETOOTH IS INAUDIBLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. Either that, or my hearing is worse than I thought, OR my motorcycle is louder than I thought. Or maybe the person who said it is useable at 75 MPH has a wind screen (this helmet allows much more wind sound in than my previous helmet). For me and the person I called, everything was fine at up to 45 MPH; she couldn't even hear that I was on a motorcycle. However, once I got into 55 MPH and over, she could still hear me (and now the wind and road, but I was still clearly audible), however I could not hear her unless she shouted, and carefully enunciated each word.
However, after all of that, I still give it 4 stars, because it's a great helmet for the price. |

| New to the modular helmet and like all the features the Hawk offer. I enjoy the Bluetooth and it is easy to use. |

| Very well put together, and super functional. I got this mostly to stream music for longer rides, and it works well for that. Don't expect this to sound like a Bose system, as you'll have some wind noise and road noise to contend with, especially at higher speeds. In terms of fit and function, it's snug, but not terribly so. All features work as advertised so far. I really like the inner sun visor, and I like modular helmets for the ability to free up my face when it's hot. Definitely worth the money here. |

| Ordered one size up. Perfect fit.
Bluetooth could be louder.
No wind noise.
No buffetting, even at speeds over 90mph. On a Harley.
Volume controls do not seem to work. |

| Good price. The bluetooth is a little tricky to figure out at first but after a little trial and error its easy to figure out and works pretty good. Speeds at 75 miles an hour and I can still hear my music from my Iphone and accept phone calls clearly. The size chart was spot on for me. Wish it had more vents for some added ventilation. |
