My Girlfriend wanted a lipstick red helmet, while I wanted her to have a modular helmet with internal sunshade as we commute mostly during dawn and dusk hours. This helmet fit the bill perfectly.
Only con's.... very round so know your head type and be sure to measure before you order a size. I would have liked to see metal hooks and posts for the modular attachments like my Bell Revolver Evo, but they seem well made.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I ride a Can-Am Spyder RS-S and have struggled finding the perfect helmet for my type of riding. I sit more upright than a traditional street bike, but crouched more than a cruiser or dual sport. Finding the right helmet to prevent updraft and maximum ventilation can be a challenge. I have used HJC in the past with decent results, they are good entry helmets but nothing to really brag about. The Evo is a great mix between reasonable pricing and expensive features. The internal sunshield fits my face perfectly, the modular design is a welcome addition to when I want to stop, converse, or grab something to drink. Not having to remove my helmet every time is a nice feature to a modular, but when riding my face is still fully protected from road trash and the elements. The helmet vents really well with large adjustable vents in the front and large vents in the back to pull the heat out from within the helmet. I went with the Rally design as I loved the modern look with the old school theme, a modern day version of what my grandfather would have worn. Some complain about the noise level, but I have aftermarket exhaust and have put a bluetooth speaker system in the helmet for music so I find it as quiet if not slightly more so then the HJC's I'm use too. Over all though in the $200 price point the Bell Revolver Evo is hard to pass up compared to others at the same price. Love that it uses the same face shields as the Star line, I will be adding the transition shield before spring riding season.
Yes, I recommend this product.

What shade is the stock internal sun shade?

I noticed they offer different shades and colors to the internal sun shade... Is the stock shade the light smoke or dark smoke option.
