Simpson Mod Bandit | Plus Pinlock, Sena, Visor, & Quick Release Install

[@xliquidflames]

I had never heard of a Pinkock until I watched this. I have to get one for my helmet. What a cool invention. I hate having to flip up my visor when it fogs up. I tried an antifogging spray but it didn't seem to do anything. Thanks for another cool video.

[@ShellOnWheels]

Yep! Pinlocks are great! Definitely worth getting!

[@luvdup.]

Great choice of helmet, love mine.

[@ShellOnWheels]

Good to know! How long have you had yours? Anything you'd change about it if you could?

[@SRLuvDup]

Bought it about a year back, has a Cardo Packtalk Bold and DJI Action 3 mounted to it, I think I'd change the chin strap now I've seen what you've done to it but until then there wasn't anything I would have changed 😂

[@ShellOnWheels]

@@SRLuvDup Great! Thanks for sharing! That's good to know. Here's a link to the chinstrap buckle, if you're interested. They're super nice! www.amazon.com/dp/B08PB89Q2P?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

@@ShellOnWheels Cheers for the link. 😊

[@yankeecowboy]

what did you use to space the speakers because that's a great idea to get them closer to your ears. I have a sena and the sound isn't great but if I press the helmet to my ears its a big improvement so your idea might do the trick

[@ShellOnWheels]

I made mine from some foam & velcro I had on hand but you can buy actual pads for them from Cardo. They're about $5 so it's hardly worth the trouble of making them unless you just happen to have the stuff. It definitely helps to have the speakers close to your ears but if you wear glasses like me, you'll have to place them just right so the arms won't hurt your ears after a while.

@@ShellOnWheels thank you so much! Ride safe

@@yankeecowboy You're welcome! You, too!

What quick disconnect strap did you use

[@ShellOnWheels]

The strap is made by "The Helmet Shop" but I bought it on Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08PB89Q2P/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

could you please provide a link for where you got it from in the UK?

[@ShellOnWheels]

Sure! Here it is (I'll add it to the description, as well): www.helmetcity.co.uk/simpson-darksome-solid-gloss-white/

@@ShellOnWheels thanks a lot, especially for such a quick reply. good video btw!

[@ShellOnWheels]

@@400bret. Thanks! I hope you're able to get your new Mod! :)

[@martypikarsky3998]

Not a deal-It's 399.99 UK Currency which equals $505 US

[@ShellOnWheels]

Incorrect. I paid $225 US dollars for this helmet in July of '23 (as the description says). I haven't looked at what the current price is but when I bought it, it was indeed $225 AMERICAN dollars.

[@martypikarsky3998]

I just found and ordered one in Germany. Total US Price $300. I’m happy with that price, Thanks!

Did yours refuse to lock in the down position unless you head butted the wall ? Mines extremely hard to click wondering if it’s faulty

[@ShellOnWheels]

No, but I do have to make sure to close it with equal pressure on both sides if that makes sense? The right side tends to snap in easily whereas the left is a little fussy so I have to make sure I shut the chin bar equally.

[@joeparga1070]

@@ShellOnWheels might just be my large ass head because it closes perfectly when I’m not wearing it lol , thanks for the fast reply

[@ShellOnWheels]

@@joeparga1070 LoL! I bet you'll get the knack for it. I thought mine was funky, too but it's fine now. If yours is really wonky, it might be worth exchanging it as defective, if you can. Good luck with it! 🙂

[@Miwiz1]

So how noisy is it?

[@ShellOnWheels]

It doesn't seem any worse than my CRG helmet or my Caberg Modular. There is a very slight whistle if I hold my head in just the right position. I think it's coming from the seam where the chin bar meets the helmet when you snap it shut. I am able to hear music through my Sena fairly well but I think it'll improve once I get the speaker position dialed in.

[@dylansessions9027]

@@ShellOnWheels could you tell us the website you used for the helmet please?

[@ShellOnWheels]

@@dylansessions9027 Sure! I got it from Helmetcity.co.uk. Here's a link: www.helmetcity.co.uk/simpson-darksome-solid-gloss-white/

[@jamaicanjjason]

Thanks for the great vid. I used it today to redo my sena setup and now I’m going to order the quick disconnect because the d rings on the Simpson are a bear to deal with.

[@ShellOnWheels]

@@jamaicanjjason Awesome! I'm really happy to hear it helped! Thanks so much for letting me know. You'll love the quick disconnect! :)
