That is an awesome looking helmet. I always wonder about the visor catching air and how it would do on long rides.

Allen when you get it stop over I want to try it on.  I read the whole ADV review. Looks like a bargain.  I wear glasses so offroad goggles arent a comfortable option and I like the visor. I read that its relatively light . I am also concerned about visor catching wind.

According to everything I've read, the visor on this one catches less wind than the big buck Shoei & Arai...guess I'll find out soon enough!

Sure, if you want...but I'm sure it's way to big for yer melon (XXL)!  ;D I have a freakishly large head, and I'm not even sure if this one will fit 'til I get it.
