Went to bahnstormers on monday and tried a system 6 and liked it any opinions?
 
I've had mine about a year now and like it. The sun visor is great, especially on my ride to Rome last year. I bought a flip front so I can put it on without taking my glasses off. My only negative comment is that I find that if I try to ride with the visor open just a little, then the visor vibrates from side to side. So really it has to be fully open or closed when riding.
 
Been using one for a couple of years and like it but:

Changed under warranty when something came loose in the visor hinge mechanism.

Pinlock does not not always seal properly to the visor - on my third Visor now under warranty!

Drop down sun visor marks very easily.

Overall would not buy another one and will be looking at the new Shoe when they come out ;)
 
Had one but it went back after a month! Came from a Shoei Multitec and by comparison the System was badly screwed together. Really wanted to like but just couldn't find it. Other points that bothered me were the visor didn't seal properly (there's a fix for this now), it was windy around the back of the neck, but most of all, the front top vent didn't seal properly and after half an hours riding I'd have a very cold patch on my forehead that led to headaches!

Then tried a second hand C2 but it wasn't comfortable so went back to Multitec. Another satisfied customer! The new Shoei looks very interesting!
 
i had one,desperatly wanted to like it but just couldnt get on with it fit wise gave me a head ache,went back to my old system 5 which is all day comfy.
 
I have one but after my accident it seems like it hit the deck cus theres scratches down the side and visor flew off, can't get the one side to stay on now :blast
When i was wearing it i was fairly happy except the leak from the top left of visor......Gonna have to replace it but not sure what with. Flip front is great for the glasses but also fancy an Enduro type one....gonna have to do some investigating :beerjug:
