I own the Speed Soul and it's a great helmet. I will complain about 1 thing though...while the quilted liner may look cool, what's not cool is the nice diamond cross pattern it leaves behind on your forehead after you take the helmet off. I really wish you would make the helmet with either no pattern or make the forehead area with no pattern.
@TheSuave230 Yeah, I can't stand that but what I ended up doing which helped somewhat is I took out the thread in that area with a razor. That made it so the pattern isn't so pronounced afterward on your forehead and it goes away pretty quick. I liked the helmet too much to get rid of it and I can't stand wearing a half helmet anymore after wearing this 3/4. Just wish they would get rid of that pattern in future offerings cause I'd like to buy another and not have to "fix" it.
@PowerCobra98 Did removing the threading damge the helmet interior in any way? I know what you mean about half helmets, they move around waaaay too much to be effective in any type of crash, I only wear full face or 3/4 myself.
@TheSuave230 Not at all. I just cut 1 stitch and then another a little ways away and just pulled that part out. Took maybe 15-30 minutes. What's left over is a liner with the quilted pattern but not the stitching. When it's against your head you still get the pattern imprint a little but since there's no stitching there to press on your head it's nowhere near as pronounced. Effectively I can live with it. I also pulled out the stitching on that little 1 inch area around the rim.
What are the goggles the guy is wearing at 0:35???
