MotoX helemt choices: HJC or Suomy?

[Warthog]

To any one who know off-roading: I want to buy a MX helmet for road use as I am going to start wearing a pollution mask on my commute to london (the colour of my collar speaks volumes about what I'm breathing as I scream and rant at other road users for daring to use the road at the same time as me!) and these will only fit under MX helmets.

So... I have narrowed down my search to either a HJC CL-X4 or a Suomy Cross-venom and I'm interested in any feedback on either of these models: good or bad.

So folks, any tales to tell?...

Whichever one you get,make sure it has a removeable and washable lining.
The amount of traffic grime that builds up on the material is frightening.

I regularly use an MX helmet on the road....a Bell Moto 6.

I've had

an HJC mx style helmet for a year or so now and find it very good for the price. Not quite Tour X quality but a 1/3 of the price.
