Review of the Icon Airflite

[@joetrosclair8434]

I’ve been riding since ‘92. I’ve never had a helmet fit better. I absolutely love my Airflite

[@PepperTreeVilla]

You're absolutely right about it all. It's a great looking helmet, and yet it's practical and wears well for the most part. The integrated sun visor is a great feature too. Thanks for a very helpful review.

[@Expedition43]

Absolutely! Thank you for the feedback!

[@akeemjackman9582]

He did the damn thing!

[@corbinroberts949]

You sold me, color combo looks amazing too

[@Expedition43]

Corbin Roberts glad to hear it! And thank you for the kind words!

[@pedrosantos2319]

Dude, awesome review. I literally ordered the Helmet and RST Silver shield before I watched your video and was about to cancel my order because I was afraid to commit to it. The way you explained it was so straight forward it allowed me to rest easy and jump in. Now I'm really excited. You got a subscriber.

[@Expedition43]

Pedro Santos thank you so much! I’m glad I could help! Check out our build series on the channel we are currently building a 2006 CBR1000RR and we have some great content coming up!

How was it two years in

[@bigal7561]

I've been a rider since the 70's. A few helmets and had to do with whatever fit my long oval head. Lot's of hotspots. Also, I was raised when you didn't wear a helmet except for the weather and those were the old bubbles. Long story even longer, as I got older and making significant rides to Sturgis, Daytona etc., I got more concerned about long rides and helmets. Would never expect then how much they have advanced over the years. 66 now and just have a hobby of restoring vintage honda's (finally got over the Harley Hype...Ha). LIke I said, I've been through some expensive helmets and some cheap helmets and they all had one thing in common. They didn't fit. This one does and I' completely trust it. Well built and I'm very happy. It was a mid level/upper low level cost (250) but money well spent. Good venting and love the shield. Added blue tooth/matching color vizor and air foil. VERY COOL

[@laodealmuqarrabun656]

Thank you! I really appreciate your review. I've been in dilemma for the last few months whether to get this helmet or not :D After watching this real review, I think I know I want it :D

[@Expedition43]

Laode Al Muqarrabun sweet! I’m glad I could help!

[@spartan8185]

Excellent review!! Just bought the Rubatone Peacekeeper in matte white. Love the aggressive look of this line of helmets. Thanks!!

[@SilentShadow07]

I get ODST vibes from yours in particular. The colour and the visor colour. Nice. 🔥

[@Expedition43]

I can see that. But the Variant looks a lot more Halo in my opinion

[@ivohage]

Nice review! How about wind noise at higher speeds?

[@grey_tracer5283]

Pair the green Blockchain helmet with a golden visor and Master Chief says hi.

[@NinjaKoalaAUTW]

very good review, the new one is coming out MIPS stealth, I have per-ordered mine

[@superfed11]

just got the helmet and love it. excellent review, thank you.

[@rob22r]

I'm surprised no said anything about g.i. Joe. Commander Cobra helmet and sticker. Nice helmet and great review. When I get a chance I'm picking up two of them.

[@Expedition43]

Thanks man! My riding gear is all black and leather too so i really do look like cobra commander

[@HARDAC01]

First thing I noticed. COBRA!!! Nice helmet.

[@gantin100]

will say to those looking at this in 2023, good luck finding cheek pads if you need them. Almost every retailer that carries this helmet is out of cheek pads.

[@brettboaz9051]

I just got mine yesterday and all I can say is it is soooooo comfy. Headshape is good for most heads. It can be a struggle to take it off sometimes tho but I gotta break it in

[@erinlorca1240]

It folds my ears over when I put it on .Kinda have to fidget with it to unfold them but once on it fits great. No complaints.

[@taylan-2170]

Man this is a great review. Seriously, you're built for this.

[@Expedition43]

Taylan - thank you so much! I really appreciate the support!

[@Butterfly07949]

Great review and especially with the heat issue most utubers leave out. I live in the UK and it can get really hot here to. I absolutely love the look of this helmet in the camo and will look the biz along with my customised army bike.

[@mechveteran01]

Great review man! I have the exact same helmet set up the exact same way. My main complaint with the helmet was air flow, never even realized it had settings until seeing your review and I've been wearing it for about a year lol. Ive got it opened all the way up now so maybe that complaint will go away!

[@mechveteran01]

Well, went riding today after adjusting the air flow and its definitely better. Thanks again man!

[@jfkid777]

Excellent review bro. I like how you hit the pros and cons and that you have actually worn it for a while before reviewing. So you’re reviewing from experience which is excellent.

[@aeror115]

I love the look, gonna test it this season too

[@iconacy]

My biggest concern with a helmet is safety that helmet I would never purchase because it’s only dot approved because of that drop down visor. if your going fast on freeways this helmet is not going to protect at a high speed impact. Looks of a helmet are not what’s important.

[@liveyourlife318]

I just got it...$299..BLUE silver gold helmet...LOVE IT..🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲..ty for video

[@broosewee]

How big of a pain is it to cut the liner for the Sena to fit? I'm disappointed this helmet isn't compatible out of the box, but the style is so wicked.

[@Expedition43]

Thach Ho it’s not too bad, just a small notch in the snap clip rim. No foam has to be cut. I run the 30k so it may be different for other Sena models

[@evanspascuale3589]

Great vid, Ihave one of this Icon in green and white. I think you missed one of the most important features IMHO, very aerodinamic, you almost do not feel the pressure of the air when you turn your head over your shoulders at high speed, also the very quiet, not need tonuse ear plugs. What I do not like is a pain when you take off your head, I have to change to one size plus because the narrow design of the bottom by the neck , I feel this helmet hate my ears. Anyways the look is a killer and a lot of premium features for this price. Thank you

[@chrisgraham887]

how was the sizing? I have heard you need to go up 1-2 sizes up from the manufacturer's recommended fitting?

[@cameronwong384]

Great video. I found it very informative as I am also trying to find gear once I start riding. I was wondering what you thought about the REV'IT Shift H2O Jacket as a 4 seasonal jacket?

[@Expedition43]

Cameron Wong I’ll look into that jacket and see if I can’t get one to do a honest review of it. Glad you liked the review, I appreciate it!

[@LlamaSpeeed]

I want a helmet that looks like this, but is also made with much higher quality materials

[@edwardortiz5516]

Great review! I ordered mine yesterday. Is the chrome / silver see through? Also can you drive at night with the visor or do you need to change it out? Thanks!

[@Expedition43]

I don’t have an issue with the chrome visor but I’m sure the darker smoke visors are not a good idea at night

[@akeemjackman9582]

Great review! You have a new subscriber. Keep posting. Do you have multiple helmets? Is it necessary to have more than one helmet?

[@electropsychosis]

Thank you for a great review. 😎

[@luiscoronel1524]

I have own shoie rf 1200 (3) but when this came out I got the spitfire and I have loved this helmet ever since because it's so unique and I get a lot of looks which I like. I am actually getting another helmet the doodle airflite and buying a blue visor for it. I have a x3 insta360 on the way and I want to stand out and everything u said about the helmet is right it looks cool but it has terrible wind noise when on the freeway compared to most mid level helmets

[@jesusdelarosa3278]

I have the grey smoked visor and it's to dark for riding at night in the country in town it's fine though

[@Expedition43]

I’ve got a few buddies with the dark smoke shield and it’s substantially darker than any of the iridium shields

[@toofastnobrakes]

Loooove they style of this helmet, it’s comfortable, and I can see good. But my god it’s the loudest helmet I’ve ever worn

[@joygain2487]

Can you tell me what's your head size? And what is your airflite helmet size?

[@potatochobit]

you know you can mount that model packtalk without the clip so you can put it higher on the helmet is fine

[@1pandamonium818]

Great review, but how is the wind noise level? I use a Sena in several helmets and cannot hear anything in a couple of them. I love the look of the Airflite, but would like to know if I can hear my music or phone calls before I buy it. I subbed because you gave a detailed honest review. Keep up the good work. Ride safe 🏍💨✌🐼

[@grey_tracer5283]

Since I'm a beginner rider and had no other helmet before - no comparison - I can't really comment on wether It's good or bad. For me, the wind noise isn't bad and totally bearable. I used a Sena last time to comunicate with my driving instructor, no problems of understanding.

[@Armand.illustrations]

Just watched this video😁 ...Tnx for the great tips ...Now I know what to get if im gonna buy a bike in the feuter ❤

[@frazierboi77]

Love the shield

[@loneknight3357]

Why am I watching this I don't even have a motorcycle yet 😆 but hopefully when I get one I'm definitely going to consider this helmet awesome review bro

[@Bthast62]

Do you have any comments on the sizing? I tried a XL on the other day and couldn't even clear the top of my head 🙄 I currently wear a large Shoei and it slips on nicely. The opening of this helmet seems really narrow, or maybe I need a 2xl, or a head reduction surgery lol!

[@Expedition43]

Mine was fairly tight brand new but for the most part it’s a pretty standard fit

[@dnyce2083]

Sweet helmet, who did you get it from?

[@andycarter3782]

What size if your Helmet just curious?

[@robertgoffjr2450]

Nice review, I’ve been checking them out and the reviews, so far they’ve all been good ones, try to do a review on the GMAX line helmets. Because that’s what I have but to me it’s a good helmet but kind of loud.

[@edernoel1027]

So my head is right under 60cm, I got a large like I always do but it’s hard to take off. Should I size up or does it adjust over use? Is it just not meant for my round head lol?

[@ybk6858]

i think its gonna adjust. You shouldnt size up

[@allahdadseheshmend-fuzhan5180]

Tell me how happy are you to see that Storm Shadow had a Icon Airflite in fhe new Snake Eyes movie? I Know I was stoked!!

[@sunnycloudy1337]

is it legal riding with that iridium visor at night? Did the cops ever stop you?

[@eucsvoboda]

Best review ever

[@InkwellFoto]

What bluetooth are you using?

[@iluvbiggirlz420]

I never wore a helmet and my question is how the breathing inside the helmit. Does some helmits constrict breathing more than others, or none at all.

[@grey_tracer5283]

Airflow is quite good, breathing problems shouldn't occur.

[@iluvbiggirlz420]

[@studiojason8049]

what about sizing? Are the charts true to size?

From my experience yes

What size is it? my head is 58 but the M (57-58) is impossible to wear

Buy an L i have 58/59 but i bought L and it is awsome

[@charlesbrown9531]

Dude. How loud is it, you know number 4? Great video with honest review and great forewarning(s)

[@Expedition43]

It’s not loud but it’s not quite it’s very middle of the road but for the price it’s really solid from a road noise standpoint

[@rubensierra1542]

Is it a loud helmet??

[@eusebiumitoi8902]

Hey man, fresh owner of the Icon Airflite Stim here. I have a question for you: I ordered the helmet online and, even though the fit is very comfortable, I'm having real difficulties when putting it on. The hole is quite tight for my head and I have to squeeze it really hard. But, as I said, the fit is very comfortable. Did you had this problem with yours ?

[@marklarkins582]

Eusebiu Mitoi you can size down your cheek pads and see if it fits better

[@marklarkins582]

You can size down your cheek pads

[@eusebiumitoi8902]

@@marklarkins582 sizing them down how ? replace them with slimmer ones or is there another way ? thanks for the help.

[@marklarkins582]

@@eusebiumitoi8902 you can order slimmer cheek pads and see if that helps you with the squeeze that is what I did and it worked out well.

[@Expedition43]

Mine was the same way when I first bought it but over time it loosens up a tiny bit. Still fits snug to the face but getting it on is much better

[@Zinnshady]

I think of it as the rubatone showing off how much you ride

[@dave32228]

what about night riding ?

[@beanerflowers09]

I’d like to see pants Such as leather or nah Styles from expensive to cheap Thank you

[@israelcampos996]

How much are they

[@Expedition43]

Mine was around the $350 range if I remember correctly

[@israelcampos996]

Would you recommend the icon Airflite for a harley davidson street glide driver

[@Expedition43]

I don’t see why not, a good helmet is a good helmet no matter the bike.

[@israelcampos996]

Hell yeah bro thanks that's whats up I'm getting one thanks

[@kamran8698]

I bought mine for 226

[@andycarter3782]

You didn’t tell us about wind noise?

[@donnylem8818]

It’s horrible

[@giorgisikharulidze1336]

It is a good helmet with great visibility untill 100km/h, at 140- 180 km/h it is very very noisy for me.

[@mustangguns7230]

Is this the rubatone one?

[@Expedition43]

Mustang Guns yes it is. As cool as it looks though the trouble of cleaning it makes me recommend the gloss black instead of the Rubatone

[@mustangguns7230]

Do you sale this helmet in gloss? Can you tell me how much will be with the dark visor.

[@mustangguns7230]

Also I just sent you a friend request in facebook so we can make the deal

[@Expedition43]

Mustang Guns oh I’m not a dealer I just do reviews I’m sorry

[@kamran8698]

Yeees

[@depter8165]

I use it i will always use it

[@ivia7vgo]

To keep it clean you should have bought a gloss version

[@Expedition43]

IVI a 7V g O buying a gloss version doesn’t solve the issue of the rubitone version clean, but I appreciate the input!

What color visor?
