Key figures

  • ECE 22.06 approved.
  • Around 1,250 g according to HJC.
  • Polycarbonate shell in two sizes.
  • Pinlock-ready visor and micro-ratchet strap.

Our verdict

For commuting and scooters it is one of the most sensible buys. Like any open-face, it does not protect your jaw: for road riding, a full-face or flip-front protects far more.

In short

The good and the not so good

Pros

  • Internal sun visor
  • Light: around 1,250 g
  • Speaker pockets for an intercom
  • Great value for money
