I purchased the RST Gold shield for my red etched variant helmet. The shield looks awesome and provides enough protection from the sun while not impairing your vision too much at night. The only complaint that I have is that it doesn't fit the helmet as nicely as the stock clear shield that comes with the helmet. It also seems more flexible than the clear shield which is noticable when raising and lowering it. It doesn't positively lock into each detent position. I hope that Icon addresses this issue and makes the needed improvements. After all, they are charging us $45 for a shield that has their name on it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Icon Variant Helmet - Solid Survival is a matter of enhanced situational awareness - an unforgiving maze of gravel strewn corners and malevolent steel. Comfort, vision, protection. Introducing the Variant helmet from Icon. A wind tunnel refined shape, executed in a Fiberglass/ Dyneema/Carbon matrix, along with an dual-density EPS core provide critical impact energy management. Extensive venting and a removable Hydradry wicking liner provide increase comfort by reducing rider fatigue. The anti-lift visor directs and channels airflow as it reduces the glare from an unyielding UV assault. While the extended eyeport and zero distortion optics provide unrivaled field of view. If the streets are your area of operation - equip yourself for the fight. All world standard, meets or exceeds the following dot fmvss 218 (US), ECE 22-05 (Europe), SAI AS1698 (Australia) and SG (Japan) safety and testing standards. Does not ship with SAI or SG certification stickers. Fiberglass / Dyneema / Carbon Fiber Shell Industry leading multi-inlet ventilation system Wind tunnel tested and refined Antilife visor Integrated chin EPS Air Channels reduce shield fogging Distortion free precision optics Anti-fog shield Removable Hydra-Dry moisture wicking liner Removable chin curtain
 

How well does the icon variant accept bluetooth communication devices and speakers?
