had a close look at the new givi m35.0 scudo line.

pretty high quality for the price.
look like it has better quality than their previous open face helmets.

but inner padding is light colored grey.

I dunno mang.
Never met in real life. Superbike also say she's a girl.

Not heavy meh?

I find they are well built but really really heavy.....
*
It's supposed to be around 1.6kg
Holding it side by side I think it's similar weight to Arai tour x4, shoei hornet and every other adventure helmet with a peak.

I really dig the removable chin bar. And the removable peak, can turn to full face hnghhhh

It finally happened guys, maybe this is god's way of telling me to get new helmet 😂
*
Get well soon bro.

QUOTE(jaycee1 @ Nov 6 2022, 05:53 PM)
Yep. Was pleasantly surprised as well.

My old MT Atom modular is also P/J .

But after testing the Zeus, you might be better off with a better helmet. The wind noise on the Zeus is very bad. But I suppose short trips to the Taman shops are ok, which is what I bought it for.  Anything over 80 is almost unbearable.

They just brought in the scorpion ADX2 just days after getting the Zeus.  Wtf. Looks like will be adding another to my helmet collection. Was holding off on the ADX1 because it was only P homologated. (New ADX2 is 22.06 P/J)
*
I've tried the adx1 few times.
Quite uncomfortable for me.

Have yet to try the adx2. Any other place that carries them other than motorworld?

Durian Bikeris having quite a significant sale today.
user posted image

cheap nolan and x-lite.
can take a look if you're looking for a new helmet.
the sale price is much cheaper than any local store that i've seen. even cheaper than what fc-moto could offer (after +shipping +tax).

that sale price can apply another 10% rebate voucher on top of that sale price.

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

not really. some models still have M,L,XL sizes available.
those nolans esp n70-gt have quite a lot of size.

QUOTE(jaycee1 @ Nov 11 2022, 09:17 PM)
But the X lite 403GT carbon has S,M,L, XL available. 1.3k after discount vouchers....damn good price for a carbon lid.

I'm wondering if it's really really old stock.....

should still have full warranty. durian is an authorized vendor for nolan & xlite.
nolan have 5 years warranty, dunno bout xlite. maybe also 5?

QUOTE(skyblu3 @ Nov 11 2022, 09:34 PM)
If only this shop is nearby, I'll go and test the fitting.
*
yeah the only reason i skip the x403gt cos i have never tried fitting any xlite before.
certainly not the x403gt. never seen anyone carry those and have them for display.

if doesn't fit nicely i'm not gonna wear them.

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?

review say this is one of the quieter adventure helmet on the market.
but never had the chance to take it on the road yet since it's raining cats and dogs everyday.
so i start the truck and use that to langgar them potholes biggrin.gif

the peak on my LS2 does tilt the helmet upwards at speed tho (130km)
hopefully the nolan is better.

I found the Peak for the 613 on shopee if you are interested. Then it can match your nolan. hahaha.
How did you find the 613? Noisy?

Ironically, I found it a little quieter WITHOUT the chin bar installed. Thats some weird aero for you... hahaha.

its really noisy

Hahaha. Yeah it is. Didn't read my review? Just curious why still get it.

That day took a pillion 1 HR ride. She used this helmet ..refused ear plugs. Maybe she partially deaf Liao...  Had to keep speeds below 120. But maybe not as bad as pillion as windblast is blocked by me.

Itchy hands.
I was hoping maybe it's not that bad.

It's been raining all day yesterday.
Can't ride, can't go to the farm can't go tend the field so spent the day installing maxto speaker and mic to the n70

Just like WH4CockcooBird I had to do some mod to the foam to fit the speakers in.

user posted image
But rather than using heat I scraped the foam using a dremel and some tungsten carbide burr bits. I find it easier to get a clean finish this way.
Then clean off any jagged edge using sanding bit.

user posted image
Ngam ngam fit, flush with the foam.

Had to solder and extend the mic wire since n70 the had the mic slot on the right side.

MHR helmet is legit lah.
it's a local brand helmet made in penang. they also make hevo brand which i find really good quality for the asking price.

sure got JPJ sticker since local brand.
there's also a few other local brand like xdot which is also locally certified.
i rate these locally made helmet higher than china no-name brands.
