  Comments about HJC IS-2 HelmetI ordered a large, which is my size but is a little too small...resulting in getting headaches when wearing it for too long. The visor touches my nose when pulled down all the way, hard to breathe and slightly uncomfortable. Also, a buddy of mine bought the exact same model but a Harley Davidson, paid it 70$ more. I would recommend this item only if you are sure that the fit is right.

  Comments about HJC IS-2 HelmetThis was a great purchase and I haven't regretted it yet. I haven't used my full face helmet since I got this one about a month ago. I've worn it on short trips and relatively long trips. It does get a bit noisy at highway speeds and on really long trips might get annoying, but I haven't been bothered enough to switch helmets yet. Another thing that will be common knowledge to experienced riders is how much wind you catch with the open face. Fortunately HJC included what is probably the best feature of this helmet, a retractable visor. The visor really is what makes this helmet great in my eyes. It has great coverage and the movement is very smooth. It has a little tab on each side to make pulling with either the left or right hand a breeze. I do have one negative though. There are two clips/sliders that actually hold the visor on. One of them, for whatever reason, wouldn't lock into place so instead of sending it back I simply put a couple drops of superglue on it. If it wasn't for that I would have rated it a 5/5.

  Comments about HJC IS-2 HelmetComfortable helmet, it reacts a little at higher speeds, but when you pull down the visor, it is great. The built in visor is an amazing addition, making this helmet great on the highway or when there is rain, dust, or a lot of bugs. I rode it in hot weather, and did not find it too hot. Definitely recommended.

  Comments about HJC IS-2 HelmetI very much like the helmet. Fits well and feels comfortable. One gripe, though. The face shield needs a darker tinting.

  Comments about HJC IS-2 HelmetAlthough this helmet fits true to its size and comfortable weight, I find the helmet sits too high on my head and there is no Leather padding around the back of the helmet or on the nap of the neck. I think this may cause some concern w neck support/protection or possible whip lash. No vents either for air flow. But over all drop down lense and fit are very nice.
