I have been riding with an HJC
Symax lid for about 3 years and to say that I am under-whelmed is an understatement.
This helmet has done okay for me, but just okay. The inside of the chin bar
eventually fell apart and recently the plastic flip hinges broke. The wind noise
has been horrific at times and talk about cold in the winter!
I have recently tried several helmets on for size and settled on the Caberg
Justissimo, made in Italy. I am in love with the flip down sun visor and
all European bike mags love it, complementing the helmet for it’s wind noise deflection.
I am running the risk of mail ordering a helmet as there are no dealers for this brand
in Boise, Idaho. Duh. When I actually get the helmet I will review it fully.
