The best 5 BUDGET flip-up motorcycle helmets - Sportsbikeshop

[@melfzs]

I've just bought a new HJC C91n gloss multi colour white/grey and black, £135 here in the UK, mine didn't come with a pin lock visor insert , I had to buy that separately at £30 . I like the quality and comfort of the HJC helmets, I've had my last one a (full face) for eight years ! 😅 I washed the lining regularly and it's still comfortable, but yes it's high time I had a new one!

[@ScotsmanDougal]

I bought a Duke II purely on the SHARP rating. Fit came second. It was very, very comfy, not noisy and looked good. I would definitely buy a Caberg again.

[@Fredryk27]

just bought the grex, its seems well built and good quality for the price.

I have the Ls2 Valient much better than the strobe. Did a review on mine as well. I like the LS2 for the helmet semi oval shape. Great line up here.

[@heritagehillsecurity8778]

Excellent selection. .Thank you, from Irvine California.

[@edgybikercop]

HJC c91 is very nice.

[@pommiegranite464]

Replacement visors are impossible to find. Is there a Nolan visor that fits this?

[@sportsbikeshop]

I think a visor from an N91/N90-2 should fit, as the Grex is essentially that helmet. As we don't have any N91/N90-2 visors in stock I can't check compatibility for you. Cheers, Tony

[@pommiegranite464]

@@sportsbikeshop Thanks for getting back to me, Tony. Much appreciated.

[@bernardmt7090]

This for the reviews. 👍

[@BelfastBiker]

This instigated me to buy the HJC i90, 2XL. Only criticism is a little tightness on my fat (for now) face - can I puy thinner cheekpads in?

[@sportsbikeshop]

HJC's importer doesn't list spare cheekpads for the i90, apologies. Thanks for getting in touch. Cheers, Tony

[@KSRGUYW]

Very informative, thanks. Did you try the Viper RS V171?

[@sportsbikeshop]

Viper is one of the few brands we don't sell, so we don't have any customer review info to go off and I'm not in a position to try one. Thanks for getting in touch. Cheers, Tony

Great review

[@stephenwright6969]

Grest teview, I've also watched your top of the range modular helmet review what about a review for the best mid range modular helmets ?

[@sportsbikeshop]

Thanks for the suggestion, Stephen. We'll take a look at that idea and see if it's workable. Cheers, Tony

[@jagathprasanna3760]

How much...and how , if imports

[@DOOM891]

will the i90 fit the radio for CBT?

[@sportsbikeshop]

I couldn't say for sure as I don't have a radio for CBT, but I would expect those radios to fit inside anything and can't see why it wouldn't fit in an i90. Cheers, Tony

I have a z1r solaris

[@CosmicSeeker69]

Is anyone bothered whether their flip is approved 2 ways when you want to let more air in on a hot day?!

[@sportsbikeshop]

Probably not, no. They might, however, be bothered when the raised chinbar slips down a bit and they can no longer see where they're going. Cheers, Tony

[@CosmicSeeker69]

@@sportsbikeshop Great to see that you're on the ball with old vids Tony! Good review - I watched it through three times - but I've got on suggestion that I think would help: You mentioned a few time who many ppl said this or that out of....I Know that it would take more time but if you used percentages I think that would be far far easier for ppl to grasp 'on the fly' - Not going to argue about the chin bar moving as my point was homologation - not if it had a retaining mech ;) Good company and great work

[@propeticurge]

They're called modular helmets

[@ianlowcock6913]

HJC 90 is not a quality build - it is inherently flawed in that the slider for the sunshield will break. It is very poorly designed. 20 out of 20 broke after period of use. HJC in Australia gave the response of so what.

[@sportsbikeshop]

We have had customers experience issues with sun visors, but it works out at 0.0327% of the i90s we have sold - and that's all sun visor issues, not just problems with the switch breaking. Thanks for your feedback. Cheers, Tony

[@markbaker7273]

Bought an mt helmet from these guys of ebay useless company

[@GhettoSuguru]

What's the Duke 2s successor ? Duke Evo or Duke x

[@sportsbikeshop]

Hi, the Duke X is slightly altered to meet ECE 22.06 safety regulations while the Evo has more widespread revisions. Reviews of both are in the pipeline. Cheers, Tony

[@ColinStewart-i5z]

Great review
