Hey everyone,

I’m currently riding a BMW F900 XR and I’m looking to upgrade my helmet, so I’m curious what you all are using and how happy you are with it.

I mainly do touring, but I also ride at higher speeds from time to time, and I spend a fair amount of time on the highway. Because of that, comfort and low wind noise are really important to me.

My budget is around €400 max.

Some features I’m specifically looking for:

  • Built-in sun visor
  • Pinlock compatibility
  • As quiet as possible at highway speeds
  • Space or cutouts for a Cardo communication system
  • Comfortable for longer rides

I know earplugs are recommended (and I do use them), but I’d still prefer a helmet that’s noticeably quieter than my previous one, since wind noise really started to bother me on longer rides.

I’m open to different brands and models, just looking for real-world experiences.

What are you using and would you recommend it?

Thanks!
