WOW.
That about sum's it up. This is the lowest priced helmet I ever purchased. My last lid was a 300 KBC race helmet. Apparently you don't always get what you pay for. The best bang for your buck helmet I've ever seen.
Wicked styling (yes, I bought this for the "halo" like design, which i'm sure that's the reason you guys are looking at this, if yer rocking a bmw you probably are spending a bit more on a helmet)
11 Vents total (Insane amount of airflow, I normally ride with shield open, but I don't need to anymore)
Ratchet chin strap (faster than D ring, and I wear my helmet, not ride with it on side of bike)
Functional padding... (would have lost points here if this were a more expensive helmet)
Decent finish for the price(I got the flat black, no blemishes)
Shield...(umm its clear? good visibility though)
Dunno where you guys are at, but around here I've yet to see anyone with a helmet like this. I like my gear "unique" just like my bike. Kawasaki Z1000 :)
This is a definite buy, even if it wont be your primary lid, its just so badass looking.
Rides: 2006 Kawasaki Z1000
Yes, I recommend this product.

How does the AFX-39 work for riders with glasses?
How hard is it to put glasses on and off with helmet on? I generally wear a modular or flip-up helmet but really want to try one of these AFX helmets.
I dont wear regular glasses, but I can tell you cheap sunglasses with thick plastic frames kind of hurt when putting on, but I would think thin metal frames would be fine. Then again Im still breaking in the thing so it should be ok soon.
