New Bell Star Helmet
Im a long time Suomy guy, but decided to try a different bucket.
After looked @ all the new Suomy's and Arai's and nothing really doing for it me I found this Bell. I was skeptical. I wore Bell's as a kid riding quads and dirt bikes, then they kinda just disappeared. Then I did my homework. Several reviews and comments later I bought one. Helmet Harbor and Sportbike track gear claim its nearly the best helmet on the market. Scoring better on webbikeworld than an arai corsair v. I searched for the best price, finding it @ riders discount. no one else was even on the same page. I couldnt believe what they sold me this helmet for. I cannot ride yet because I live in this shithole state of NY and the weather sux. Just from feel and initial impressions this helmet is slick. I also ordered a transitions shield, exclusive to Bell right now as far as I know. No more changing shields when I want to ride @ night. Which was a real pain the ass w/ the Suomy. It also has a magnet to keep the extra strap from flapping. My suomy had a snap system which was ok. the magnet system will be faster and less fumbling around when im in a hurry. Helmet comes w/ a real helmet bag and a spare shield cover that velcros inside the helmet bag. 5 year warranty and I believe crash replacement. So far, I think this is the best helmet Ive ever owned.
