Shoei Multitec, first impressions.
Well been out all weekend with the Multitec, all in all i am impressed, very comfortable. Plenty of room inside for intercom etc, but not too much so that lots of wind gets in under chin (optional chin curtain supplied in box).
It is true that it is not all that quiet, but i was riding an unfaired bike at 85-90 and was not particularly bad, sorry have not been biking long so can't compare to other flip ups! In the locked down position the helmet feels secure and the vents are excellent, so good i had to close them after a few seconds (both head and chin vents are easily operated wearing winter gloved whilst riding).
One thing i have noticed which i must investigate is the fact that some wind was hitting my eyes with all vents closed and causing my eyes to water, watery eys=blurred vision!!! However, i'm sure i can tweek something to try and improve, if not will get a replacement and try that.
The helmet comes with pinlock which i think is a great product. So overall i like it, you are all i'm sure aware of the advantages and disadvantages of flip ups, so no need to go into that i don't think.
Well i hope this helps somebody, please let me know what you guys also think about it, do you get wind through top of visor?
