What is the best full face helmet?

[coyotekid]

With the end of our 3 weeks or so of summer fast approaching, I'm really starting to get the itch for snowmobile season to be here. One thing I'd like to upgrade this year is my helmet. I've been wearing an AGV/Blizzard/Lazer modular for the last few years and overall have been happy with it. I do have two complaints, however. It's pretty heavy and in any kind of a cross wind, I get nailed right in the temple with an icy blast. I'd like to find something that's relatively light, and has a tight seal. What does the collective wisdom of TY think? What helmets are you wearing and what do you think of those helmets?

I use a Klim F4, super light, comfy, comes with a nice bag and pads for summer and winter plus two visors. Its a bit cold (just like any other MX style) but with a good balaclava I would never go back to a closed face.

HJC in any of the Moto style. I have had 3, liked them all. 2 are retired due to damage I inflicted striking my noggin on the ground LOL. Reasonably priced, with good or no graphics. Use a Klim balaclave and the breath box they supply, with Scott goggles. Ridden in -25 with it as well as +50. My current one is a flat black model, no graphics. You can KINDA' see it in my signature pic.

I like modular helmets myself, just my preference. I also think Ski Doo make the best modular helmets (IMO). I use a BRP Mod II . It is very comfy and very warm. It looks good too. It also has an integrated pair of sunglasses, which work really slick. I am the envy of my friends of really sunny days.

I don't use Moto helmets because I've found they can be freezing on cold days (IMO!) and they have no better or wider field of vision than my Mod II. It never fogs up either.

But someday I do want to try that Klim F4 helmet........

I will 2nd the above post by mntvipermn. I feel the Mod II is the best helmet I have ever had.

I really like my BV2 S from Ski-doo- warm and doesn't fog- I will never go back to a heated shield- they are a pain.

I had the mod 2 from BRP, and it worked out good for me. I switched this year to a BV2S model with a blue sun visor, and heated shield. Looking to get more of a open viewing area we will see what happens

 

[coyotekid]

Has anyone tried the HJC IS-Max? It seems that lots of people like the Mod II. How do they run for size, are they pretty true? Thanks for the input.

BV2S all the way, you'll wonder how you ever rode without one.

BV2S Here also, they are sweet helmets.
