Would love to meat up with you one day

Hahaha

Love you bro

Anyway. Hjc...good choice.

I would recommend you to consider the rpha70. It comes with a retractable sun visor/shade which is a better option than using a dark visor. And it's a much quieter helmet.
It's a better helmet for daily use and
for long distance ride.

I'm using one, my daily ride helmet. No regrets.

Forgot to ask
What type of bike are you riding?

Rpha11 aerodynamics is designed mainly for sporty riding position

Rpha70 is designed for upright riding position, touring , etc

Tnt300. Then better go get rpha70 or 90
So far I have no issues with wind push wearing my r70 when going like 130kmh++. Stable.

You have to go test fit the helmet.

Just take note of the shelf life
Just like rubber (Shoes especially), when it is left idle for a long time or will go brittle.
As for helmet you may want to see the condition of the padding.
As for the epa foam shell, it will weaken over time.

Mine came with pinlock

Rpha70 has a cut out for the intercom speakers. Mine installed the Bluetooth speakers. Fit just right.

For safety sake, it's better to use original

Don't know what's the quality of these aftermarket cheap visors.

I'm more concern of rocks or projectiles smashing into the visor when you are traveling at high speed

I had this experience where a stone/rock smack into my visor when I was riding on the highway, the impact was damn loud. Had a deep scratch on the original visor. It did it's job well.
This is why I always such to original hjc visors. Not cheap, but worth it.

yes. D ring is most secure and safe.

as for fitting, the best is to test it out. No point go online to ask for opinion.
need to wear it and food.

as for vents, just go for branded helmets. functionality is tested in R&D.

i'm using this type - multipurpose headband.
and I make sure I cover the ears as well.

most of the time no wear

Old video. But informative

What happened?
You crashed?

Thank God you are ok. And good that you wear safety gears.

Except for the ankle

You werent wearing riding shoes ?

Ouch.
Sorry to know that

The benkia riding shoes..... High cut or low cut ?

Speedy recovery.

True
Even wearing budget gears is better than none.
That's why I always advice just buy the best you can afford. Not cheap I know. But just treat it like paying for an insurance.

The X-lites are so cheap!

Those with big discounts are "left overs" . Odd sizes

If only this shop is nearby, I'll go and test the fitting.

How's the wind noise of this type of helmet?
Will the sun visor caused the helmet to be unstable when riding in highway speed?
