I live in Texas and have been looking for a good open face helmet. I wear a full face in the winter, but it's just too darn hot here the rest of the time. I've tried a few half and open face helmets but most want to depart from my head over 60 MPH. I just bought an AGV Blade, which looks a little odd but it's turned out to be my new favorite open helmet. I guess the odd shape is for aerodynamics (almost looks like an alien head). Airflow over the helmet is smooth. You can configure the helmet with a shield/no shield, and they sell long and short peaks as well. Same as the new Blade helmet HD is selling now, but mine doesn't have the $80 logo.

Anyway, if you're looking for a good open face helmet check it out. Here's a link to the manufacturers site.

I think the helmet looks cool.

I'd bet it would look nice with a tinted lens.

It says to look at allthe pics for different setups, but I didn't find them.

Do you have any pics with the visor?

I usually wear a half helmet but I work Midnight shift and sometimes the cold and the bugs are just too much to take...maybe looking to get a helmet like this.

 

I have a Blade helmet size L for sale if anyone is interested, too big for my melon. Wore it 5 times. Very cool looking helmet. PM if interested

 

does the visor flip up do you wear glasses with it and is it difficult to
put glasses on after you put on helmet

 

Sharp looking helmet! If I did not already have my Scorpion, I would sure check into that one. Similar to mine. Here is mine.

 

Dragon model owner here...love it and AGV helmets...

 

How noisy is it? I have an AGV X vent full face and an Arai full face, been thinking about an open face helmet.

 

Replacement shields are $33.00 each. Pretty steep for the item most likely to be replaced frequently. Helmet look pretty good, though.
