    After 2 hours of trying on helmets... this helmet fit the best for my big head.

    That's one of the things I love about HJC, they always have thoughtful improvements like that adjustment for the sun shield, my i90 Syrex doesn't have that feature but I love the i90, especially the colour it matches my HJC MX2 Creed. I got the i90 on Boxing day sale only paid $ 203ca all in, wicked helmet!

    I was looking for a decent modular! This one hits all the nails on the head. Great review!

    i appreciate the honesty in some of its drawbacks as i'm looking for a modular helmet. thanks

    I’ve been running this helmet (USA version) for 5 months now, and pretty darned happy with it.
    Like you mentioned, I’d be happier if the visor had some more positive detents, but it has so much going for it, I don’t mind, and got used to it in a few short days.
    I had the local dealer “Helmet Guru” measure me up for it, and it’s the best fitting helmet I’ve ever worn.
    Noise level is very acceptable, and no complaints.

    Just bought the UK version of this today (27 Feb) & there are definite differences between the reviewed version & mine. The chin strap is micro metric, not double d ring. & the visor isn't floppy it has positive 😮 hold it in place. Small differences, but they make the helmet better, i think. The other thing which you didn't mention is the other dedicated intercom, the 11b. That only connects with one other unit, but otherwise is the same spec as the 21b. It's also a fair bit cheaper & will do what I want, so I got that, too. The total cost for helmet & intercom was £290 ($368 approx) with the intercom fitted by the shop.

    • @SpeedAddictsTV

      Yes, there are differences between the Euro version and the US versions of this helmet. We only review the US versions of helmets. Thanks for watching!

      Did you already use the helmet? How is the noise Level? Thanks!

    • @k1200ltse
      @k1200ltse Před 4 měsíci +2

      @Petrolhead1251 I have. The noise level seems to be quite low compared to my other helmet, a Grex G9.1 Evolve, though I've only ridden about 100 miles in it. It's a very comfy & the integrated intercom is excellent - I've got the basic version, the 11b - for listening to music. So far I'm very happy with it.

    • @rogermatthews182

      The NZ/Australian version is like (or is) the European version. Stable visor and quick release ratchet strap.

    • @No1male
      @No1male Před měsícem

      Hi, I cannot find much info on the 11b, how are you getting on with it? I am a completely new rider and I going to buy the i91 as my first helmet so want to get the comms unit with the helmet if possible. Just need to find a local helmet shop in the midlands ion order to see what size I need :)

  • @ko4gpa
    @ko4gpa Před 7 měsíci +5

    I upgraded from the old i90 to the rpha91. It’s so much nicer in every way. Also I have the Cardo freecom 4 and you can mount it directly onto the plate on the side. I was worried it might be loose but it’s staying solid.

    • @RicardoAlexandre173
      @RicardoAlexandre173 Před 4 měsíci +1

      Hi, I have the freecom cardo 4+, it fits well?

    • @SpeedAddictsTV
      @SpeedAddictsTV  Před 3 měsíci +2

      That comm unit works well on this helmet.

    • @F-Ryd3r
      @F-Ryd3r Před 3 měsíci +1

      Same. I used double sided gorilla tape. Cut it into a couple of pieces to level out the ridges on my RPHA 31 plate. Worked perfectly. It's not coming off.

  • @sgtshak2806
    @sgtshak2806 Před 2 měsíci

    Is there a different in fit between the i91 and the RHPA? I recently bought a RPHA 11pro and I love it. Looking at a modular and really do not want to spend the $$$ on the Neotech 2. I had a much older RPHA modular, and it didn't quite fit right. That helmet was when HJC first introduced the RPHA line.

    • @SpeedAddictsTV
      @SpeedAddictsTV  Před 2 měsíci

      The RPHA 91 has better shell, and is DOT, ECE 22.06, and P and J certified.

  • @michaelerwin3271
    @michaelerwin3271 Před 5 měsíci

    Reached out to SpeedAddicts about sizing for those of us with a larger noggen, since the i90 was available up to a 5XL. Doesnt appear HJC is going to produce the larger sizes anymore. Bummer. I want a new i91, but no joy.

    • @SpeedAddictsTV
      @SpeedAddictsTV  Před 4 měsíci +1

      We wish HJC would have made those larger sizes.

  • @ItsaJap
    @ItsaJap Před 2 měsíci

    I have an HJC i90 5XL, I take it this version wouldn't fit then. Doesn't seem like there are many that will fit, I'd like to try and find something with more air flow. Modular seems to fit easier.
    I've got between 25 - 26" circumference.

  • @aBluegrassPicker
    @aBluegrassPicker Před 4 měsíci

    Loose detent on shield would be a deal breaker for me - that's why I got rid of my Schuberth. My I90 has great detent functionality - I'll stick with that.

    • @SpeedAddictsTV
      @SpeedAddictsTV  Před 4 měsíci

      We definitely prefer the stronger detents as well. Thanks for watching!

  • @bartasview2148
    @bartasview2148 Před 6 měsíci

    Could you tell me if the sizing is the same like in i90 or is it a bit different? Thanks!

    • @SpeedAddictsTV
      @SpeedAddictsTV  Před 3 měsíci

      Sizing is the same, since we found both helmets to run true to size.

  • @StopDeportingVeterans
    @StopDeportingVeterans Před 5 měsíci

    Would you choose this i91 helmet or the LS2 Advant/Advant X?

    • @andreadevincenzo826
      @andreadevincenzo826 Před 5 měsíci +1

      i 91💪

    • @SpeedAddictsTV
      @SpeedAddictsTV  Před 4 měsíci

      The new I91 is great, but if you want the 180 option, then the Advant X is an excellent choice.

    • @StopDeportingVeterans
      @StopDeportingVeterans Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you. I threw caution to the wind and got a rpha 90s. I ended up getting it brand new for less than the i91 and LS2 adv X. Patience and research time paid off.

    What is the difference between this one and the C91?

    • @SpeedAddictsTV
      @SpeedAddictsTV  Před 4 měsíci

      These helmets are pretty comparable. Though the i91 is compatible with the newer HJC Smart 21B and 50B units.

      They are pretty comparable, but the i91 is compatible with the 2nd gen HJC smart comm units.

      @crumbcake11 Před 3 měsíci

      What I'm trying to say is if shell size 1 is x-small thru large, and my head size is small, I am effectively wearing a large with fat cheek pads. This is why it's useful to know what the span of each shell size is

  • @user-ed2gs4db3r

    bro why the strap of the helmet is classic and not modern !

  • @haikaldanial2709
    @haikaldanial2709 Před 7 měsíci +1

    Seriously, i dont understand why people buy helmet like this? The flip chin side will resist wind while riding motorcycles. Just buy either fullface or 180-degree flip up modular helmet.

    • @JesseFaught
      @JesseFaught Před 7 měsíci +19

      I didn't like any of the 180 degree flip modulars in this price range. I don't plan to ride with the chin flipped up. I want a modular so I can have brief conversations and drink water without taking my helmet off. It also makes it easier to don and remove.

    • @BTeamHooligan
      @BTeamHooligan Před 7 měsíci +13

      Some have to wear glasses and this makes it easier to put them on/off than a full face.

    • @michaeloud6044
      @michaeloud6044 Před 5 měsíci +4

      Do you think anyone is racing with their helmet flipped up? 😂

    • @StopDeportingVeterans
      @StopDeportingVeterans Před 5 měsíci +2

      The i100 180° flip bar has the integrated Bluetooth setup for the Sena 10b or 20b, and both are being discontinued. So the one 180° that HJC offers is basically obsolete.
      Although this i91 does not have the 180°, if I want a standard 3/4 helmet, I will throw on my HJC IS-33. The Modular aspect of this helmet is not to ride with it in the open position for extended periods of time.

    • @SynicalBeats
      @SynicalBeats Před 5 měsíci +1

      Because I wear glasses and it makes life a lot easier. It's a lot easier to pull over and have a drink. Wtf
