Shark Speed-R Sauer Helmet SHARK is proud to present a new philosophy. Utilizing all SHARKs expertise in safety, innovation and function the SPEED -R is a helmet specifically designed to meet the passionate demands of un-faired motorcycle riders. Double blade air spoiler positioned at the rear of the Speed-R, it allows the air to flow above and below the blade, hence the dual venturi effect to extract warm air from the helmet. Spoiler/stabilizer at its rear base trim the Speed-R has a spoiler, which stabilizes the helmet ans the cancels the buffering effect. The immediate benefit is no air turbulence running inside the helmet and greater stability at a steady speed. Features Latest generation composite long fibre construction Integrated, drop down sun visor Extensive wind-tunnel testing to perfect aerodynamics and ventilation system for use with naked road bikes Faceshield varies in thickness and is optically correct, scratch resistant and anti-fog coated Completely remove and washable COOLMAX lining Shark Easy Fit glasses system offers wearers a comfort lining which has a pre-tted system to accommodate all types of glasses ECE 2205 and DOT approved Two shell sizes Approximate weight size M 1450 g (+/ 50 g)

I've been riding this for about a month now and like it more now than I did initially. I have a big head and ordered the XL. It fits my head great, but the cheek pads were pretty tight. They have loosened up some and are now more comfortable. It seems like a very well made, safe helmet and is pretty quiet, at least compared to my AFX FX 90, which I still like. Airflow could be better, but is acceptable. Likewise, I would like a little wider shield for more side vision, but it's perfectly acceptable. The built in sun visor is outstanding and is one of the main things that attracted me to this helmet in the first place. Very easy to deploy or retract when needed, even while riding. Plus, the design and look of the helmet is gorgeous. Overall, I'm very satisfied and would buy another.
On a side note, Revzilla is simply outstanding ... the best! The selection is incredible, the web site is easy to navigate, and customer service can't be beat. Plus, Anthony's videos are amazing ... so thorough and informative. These guys obviously care about what they do, are experts and are first-rate all around. The prices are even good. Why buy anywhere else?
Yes, I recommend this product.

Icon Hooligan 2 Mesh Overpants Mesh overpant - the idea seems a bit odd at first - until you try them. The Fighter Mesh chassis provides excellent abrasion resistance while allowing complete freedom of movement and incredible ventilation. Integrated mechanical flex zones further increase the mobility and comfort of the pants. Worn over a set of normal pants this outfit provides a great riding experience in warmer weather climates while providing enhanced protection. Features Icon loose overpant fit pattern Removable knee impact protectors Durable breathable fighter mesh nylon chassis Adjustable waist straps Perforated panels for venting Ribbed flex panels on knees Zippered side pockets for secure storage Ratchet waist closure
 

Hip protection?

Can you add hip pads to the Hooligan pant?

Thanks!
