I just went from a Harley Road Glide Ultra to a Suzuki DR650 for dual sport adventure riding and motocamping. So I'm having to shop for that kind of gear now. Thank you very much for this helmet review. I was already considering this helmet and you just made my mind up. Thank you!
Hope you keep posting more videos. I binge watched all your content from the beginnng so now I’m a junky always waiting for a fix. Appreciate what you do, awesome inspirational content! Thank you for sharing your world. Keep it going!!!
At this point I am strictly into street riding, so this helmet isn’t something I would use. But a very solid, comprehensive review as usual Staci. Nice job.
I’ve had the MX-9 adventure for four years now. Can conrfirm with Staci that glasses fit under just fine for me as well and my mongo head. Lift from the visor also minimal on all of my bikes. Cardo’s JBL speakers are a little thick though and I can feel them just touching my ears a bit on longer rides. YMMV.
What a refreshing change to see a review that mentions head shape. I have a long oval head, meaning that a lot of helmets won't suit me, so this is an important consideration. Well done Staci.
I have the MIPS system in my cycling helmet. My friend and I were cycling and end up crashing both of us slammed our heads on the road. I hit the back of my head on the concrete and cracked the helmet. We were traveling between 17-20mph. I did get a minor concussion and my friend who didn’t have the helmet with the mips system was a lot more severe. My next motorcycle helmet will have the mips system. Big fan of mips
I have it with the Protint as well and it’s awesome for someone who needs to wear glasses always. 🤓 What comm is that you’re using on it? And thanks for the winter kit info. Had no idea it existed.
I've enjoyed that helmet for the last year or so. I wish I would have known about the cold weather kit 😆 The state just kicked back some tax money, though, and I've upgraded to an Arai xd4
that pro tint shield is great, after having my race flex helmet, i knew i needed a adv helmet for the panny, looked at this one but ended up with a klim krios pro, and it has a transitions shield also....very nice feature in the helmets. sláinte
@@ridetofood Bell needs to put race flex features and a magnetic chin strap in the mx-9 and add the magnetic strap in their race flex...my personal opinion and we all know what they say about opinions lol. ride safe staci!
How is wind noise on the highway? I know an ADV helmet won't be as quiet as a road helmet, but how does this stack up against other ADV helmets in your opinion?
Personally, it doesn’t bother me much. I just listen to music and I’m fine. But that’s with my height and windshield set up in mind. Everyone’s going to have a different experiences. With that being said this is the only ADV helmet I’ve worn so I don’t have a fair opinion in regards to comparison. Hope this helps!
@@ridetofood As a moto v I also love seeing many people's vlogs. I have seen many women's vlogs. On their vlog I like to see their activity, where they have been and what they have been doing. But you are the only one I see on your vlog. I don't see what you are doing on your vlog. I only see you, with eyes full of love. I like your smile a lot. But don't forget me after becoming popular.
hi, so is anyone taking about the 1698g the helmet is weighting? i have this helmet now for two years and have to admit it is nice. BUT: it is waay to heavy in my opinion, for just road riding it is ok but if you go to more offroad tracks its just too heavy! what is your opinion on the weight, and i tried to get rid of some stuff, but still heavy cheers
Depends what size your helmet is...an XS and an XL are going to weigh different amounts which is why it's not mentioned. Plus, it doesn't bother me on or off road. Everyone's different. Hope you find one that works for you! :)
not sure what you mean. It's about the same as everything else. The Arai XD-4 is 3.66lb, this one is 3.74lb. Sounds like that extra tenth of a pound has you hurting. Maybe find some dedicated motorcross helmet.
if you head to the video description you can find 3 websites that supply the MX-9 and it's accessories! just type in "mx 9 protint" and you can search their inventory!
Depends on the visor, your speed, your windshield, your hearing health…. Overall it’s a dual purpose helmet so, naturally, it’s not going to be as quiet as a road-focused helmet like the race star but overall it doesn’t bother me
Seriously, the Pro Tint face shield cannot be overstated. It is downright amazing!

Oh yeah, I’m a year behind on my travel video edits. LOTS more to come

👍
But you can wear it on the street and look bad ass. No one has to know otherwise.

That helmet is priced right for all you get . I was looking for a new helmet, so you saved me the trouble.
Great review, thank you! ordered one
Awesome! Just wore mine all day yesterday. Still love this helmet! Enjoy!!
Cool vid Staci, you should do more product reviews, you're really good at them. I tried and let's just say I should keep my day job. lol
Lol! Thank you!! Definitely a plan for the winter. 😊

Glad it was helpful! fingers crossed you find a helmet that fits you well! :)
Don't all reviews mention shape?
@bena3341 I've found that very few do.

Oh dang! Glad you’re okay now!
Great review Staci! Excellent work.
Thank you!
Great review. I’m definitely a Bell fan.
Great and comprehensive review! Thank you for sharing a female rider's perspective, it helped with my decision.
Enjoy!! Was just wearing my MX-9 Adv this past week. Still loving it!
I have it with the Protint as well and it’s awesome for someone who needs to wear glasses always. 🤓
What comm is that you’re using on it?
And thanks for the winter kit info. Had no idea it existed.

Hell yeah! look at that Dango Design chin mount!!
YEWWW! Love it!
Didn’t know about the pro tint. That’s cool. I’ll probably look into that
it's a game changer. I run it on my Race Star as well!
@@ridetofood I have a mag 9 looks like it’s not available for that. But still cool technology. Thank you for the review
Excellent review. Thanks

Very good review. Thanks! How's the photochromatic shield holding up?
I use em on all of my bells and they last for a good while. Just don’t use chemical cleaners on it! I just use water lol
Great review!
The Only Question I Had Was About Wearing Goggles & You Answered That. Thank You

With earplugs in, almost any helmet becomes quiet. Wind buffeting is still an issue with some designs.
I see the answer is not straight to the point. The noise is terrible. Overall nice helmet but you need to wear earplugs.
Its not a shcuberth helmet@allanromeo75
Very good review 👏 👍
Thank you! 😊
Staci, what do you think about a helmet with a net on the back for lady's hair. Save a person with long hair from split ends from whipping around.
I braid my hair
After a long time i can see you, my LOVE. Try to be regular
Wut

Hello where can i get the UV protect film can you share a link?

I miss the dirt
Seems like a decent helmet.
kewl vid.. l only ride open face... cheers
FIRST!!! Love this channel!
Yay! :) Thank you!
Do you have trouble getting the communicator to pair with Cardo?
I’ve never tried to be honest!
Strange question. Would you say the helmet is big on your head or slim? I had a Helmet in the right size but it looked HUGE on me.
I talk about this in the video!
@@ridetofood oh I'm sorry 😞. I was trying to watch it at work yesterday and I kept having to turn the volume down
Very good review. I thank you and your tiny head😅
🤣🤘
Did you purchase the helmet and accessories or did bell give them to you?
Read the video description!
"This video was made possible by Bell Helmets."
Hello
What’s the weight of the helmet in size S?
No idea. It doesn’t bother me 🤷🏼♀️
How's the wind noise?
Depends on the visor, your speed, your windshield, your hearing health…. Overall it’s a dual purpose helmet so, naturally, it’s not going to be as quiet as a road-focused helmet like the race star but overall it doesn’t bother me
