Airoh helmets, any good?

Like the look of the force and it's got a built in visor.

Not heard of them before now, sharp results look good for full face helmets but don't know if I should trust that as my condor is 2 star!

Noisey, I got rid of mine, although the internal sun visor was great.

Mine was the flip front model which might explain why it was so noisey

Ah, I was looking at this one

So hopefully it wouldn't be too noisy, I'd like to try one on before I buy but I don't think there are any dealers around me

Doesn't Toseland wear Airoh now?

The force will strong with you,

The simple answer is the one I say over and over again - a £100 helmet that fits you properly is better than a £500 one that doesn't.

It is not a case of just thinking, "I like that helmet, what is my size?". Accept the fact that some models of helmet just won't have a size that fits you - there are two many variables in the internal shape.

Go find an Airoh dealer, try one on, leave it on for 15 mins or so. Do not be rushed, any reputable dealer will take some time with you to make sure that the helmet fits correctly.

Most importantly never compromise on getting a good fit just because you like the design of a helmet.

That's what happened previously. Really liked the look of the AGV helmets but they fit me terribly, the front was pressed right up against my face. Arai Condor fit perfectly but wouldn't be my choice on style.

Problem is I can't find an Airoh dealer

I'm loving mine. Came to it after my Caberg flip front was totaled after my accident. By comparison, it's loads lighter, better vision, quieter (although the vents whistle but earplugs have sorted that) and appears to be much more solid. My only complaint is that it fogs quickly when stopping in rain, and if you open the visor a notch the rain runs down the inside and makes it worse. I've got an anti-fog insert that I bought for the Caberg and didn't get round to fitting, so hopefully that should sort that. At £135 delivered I'm very happy.

Dont know where you are located but this site might help

I'm disappointed with mine. I get a lot of wind coming under the chin of the helmet and blowing in my face. And the vents whistle even when they are closed, and I can hear them even with ear plugs in.

I wouldn't recommend it
