Ron-M Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Does anyone have an AGV helmet? I am wondering about the strength of the visor attachments. I like to ride with my visor open. Obviously wearing glasses. I have had helmets that have a weak mechanism, which would not allow the visor to stay open at higher speeds. I have also had helmets with a strong mechanism, my current Shoei helmet as an example, that allows the shied to stay open at any speed. I am looking at the AGV Sport Modular Dark Refractive as my next helmet, but I am curious about the visor mechanism and its strength or weakness. Thank you in advance. Link to comment
Ron-M Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 FY I- Did some research on this helmet and decided to purchase a Shoei Neotec 2 instead. 1 Link to comment
JCtx Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I've had Shoeis for decades now (used to wear Arais before), and no way I'd leave the visor fully open at highway speeds; it'd break for sure. It's NOT designed for that. Maybe with a big windscreen, but on a fully naked bike like mine, no way. You're supposed to only open it to the first 'click', to defog the screen. I wear the GT Air (have 2). And due to its sun shield, it has the same certification of the Neotec (not the top SNELL one). Link to comment
