I think one of the things I would appreciate knowing more about is how safe these lids are and how much we are risking by not buying more expensive helmets. The calculus is a bit complex. Some help is needed here, like a "hammer test" or a "crash-test simulation" or something of the sort that would help us beyond the comfort features. Of course, these are also important, but the Bell Qualifier goes for 120$, whereas I can also spend over a 1000$ on a helmet - how much of that is comfort and how much is safety? If you already have a document or a video on this topic, thanks for referring me/us.

Comment on the HJC FG-17--I bought it for that Snell Rating about 4-5 years ago and also because it fit so well. It's very light and I got in a wreck about a year ago with no head trauma sustained whatsoever. I still wear it to this day, though I know I shouldn't. Highly recommend it.

hopefully you did get the FG-17.i too got this helmet about 1 or 2 years ago, mainly because it was snell approved and ive also have had no issues with this helmet.it could be a little noisy tho but cheap earplugs fix that issue. also this helmet could fit a gopro in the front as opposed to side or top of helmet(i dont really like that look).

Bell and Icon helmets shown failed Sharp side impact testing miserably. The HJC and AGV did much better. I get that Sharp isn't the final word on motorcycle helmet testing but I'd definitely feel much safer knowing my helmet can help keep me safe in a side impact. The Bell and Icons will not...the HJC and AGV will. The Airmada also didn't do so hot on the frontal test. Guessing perhaps that brow vent is a weak point on it. Side note-I was also surprised to see the HJC RPHA-11, a so-called higher tier helmet, also failed its side impact tests. Also...to be fair, many much more expensive Shoei and Arai helmets also did poorly in side impact testing.

Also replacement visors are a bit expensive, however it is a very comfortable helmet, has very good airflow, and I love how the hinges for the visor have plates over them that continue the design of the helmet onto them to hide the hinges

Ferrinflame any of these helmets will be fine for an upright riding position. I have the airmada and my first bike was a 2007 ninja 250, riding position was very upright and the helmet was perfect.
