This helmet looks great but DOES NOT fit the "average" head well. There is VERY LITTLE PADDING in the back of the helmet and has shallow cheek pads. I ended up paying $60 just to return the one I bought.
Don't think the key for the visor and top vent is a good idea. What if you forgot where it is right before you're getting ready to ride and wants to modify the helmet?
Thanks - you make a good point and that's one of the drawbacks of this type of helmet with the removable parts. We've reviewed a few like this, including the Zeus ZS-3000, Airoh TR1, etc. and the problem is storing the parts so they don't get lost.
Not sure the Givi or the Nolan N43 Air (Euro version) would look right on a 'Busa rider! How about a GMax GM68S? See our review and video, nice helmet, inexpensive and has excellent air flow.
Thanks, much appreciated... I think they have different colors in the U.S. model vs. the European model. Most flip-ups have pretty lame (i.e., boring) colors for some reason.
Check our review of both helmets (and 120+ more) on webBikeWorld. The idea of these videos is to illustrate the reviews and hope to snag some people into visiting webBikeWorld to learn more!
You probably could, as long as the boom mic fits under the bottom of the helmet shell and reaches your mouth. When the chin bar is removed, however, the wind noise would probably overwhelm the microphone.
It depends somewhat on how the manufacturer spreads their shell sizes across the helmet internal size range.
A large shell on a size XXL helmet may look normal, while a large shell on a size M helmet may look huge.
But for the most part, I think the manufacturers are doing a better job at making and matching shells to head sizes (plus the materials today may have become thinner with better technology).
Well if the Europeans think its ok, it probably is. We will probably see more designs like this from U.S. companies if Europe dosn't get their butts over here!
It's currently sold only in Europe. As far as I know, Givi helmets are not distributed in the U.S.A. Selling a new helmet line in the North American helmet market is extremely difficult, with distribution issues, parts, service and liability insurance all problematic.
By the way, we get visitors from all over the world and we review many products; some of the products may not be available in any one particular country.
Shame. I've recently found all these cool helmets that are not available in the US: Caberg, Airoh, and now Givi. And you have one on WebBikeWorld - that Schuberth with the skinny chin guard. Looks awesome. Are there any overseas web sites where these helmets can be ordered for shipment overseas. I know some of the Caberg and Airoh helmets can be purchase thru Ebay.

Make a fixed helmet with the same type of design. It would sell like hotcakes on a winter day.

IMO The visor/top-vent key is a bad idea. What if you're ready to ride and then need to change the helmet but forgot where you put it?
