This mention might be a little late for some of us but when I purchased the secret(black/white),I also got the blue iridium tinted visor that didn't close easy as it should.
I figured out the problem. There is a screw on the lip of the visor that holds D clasp. I simply loosened the screw and moved the clasp closer to the edge of the lip before tighten back. In other words I matched it up like it was placed on the clear visor.
It closes and locks after all that.
Never too late my guy. Pinning this one on the top :D
Oh my god, thank you! 🙏 I really thought I had a faulty visor.

Did that work?
Just bought this for $350 and I’m stoked!
respects for showing the glasses my man
Of course! Trying to get out as much content and info during these crazy times :)
Thank you, needed to know about the eye glasses situation and you addressed it!
I wore my glasses to ride a little today and I forget how easy it is to put on and off.
Non glasses people won't understand how hard it is so find helmets that can put glasses on and off easily.

You don’t think the rest of us wear sunglasses?
Thanks for the owners update. Appreciate it.
I just got the K6, my head is 59 centimeters, I got the large helmet, it seems like it fits perfectly but I’m reading I should have got the medium large, is it safe to go one size up ? Just seems like it fits me perfect I’m scared to send it back and get a size smaller and it be to tight even though I’m 59 centimeters…
As long as your helmet does not shift. If you can rotate your helmet that is a bad indicator it does not fit. Now your helmet can move WITH your skin, that should be fine as long as it's not shifting and moving freely
Exactly the same for me. When I was in store i found out size ML suited me better.. what did you do?
Hey mate, thanks so much for the glasses part! Was wondering if it is true to size? I saw someone say it runs a size small and I'm ordering one at the end of this month so i was wondering if i should order my normal size or size up?
If you go on the website, you can see what circumference fits your head. I always recommend trying helmets on in person, but of course you might not have a store nearby.
If you're switching brands, definitely remeasure your helmet size before purchasing and referencing the size chart.
I would say the helmet sizing is accurate but again, remeasure and compare with the sizing chart.
Also buy from a reputable dealer and/or the agv website.
I had an agv helmet. Worked pretty well for me and I loved it. Unfortunately my head is a bit wide so it caused pressure on the side of my head. Just something for people to consider if they are purchasing it!
what helmet do you wear now bro? I currently use an RF-1200, got the same bighead issues lol
I know what you mean, I had the K3 Misano and it messed up my ear bc it was tugging and pulling it. The agv K6 is perfect though, I think a true intermediate oval. AGV is known for their sharp narrow helmets though
This NARDO K6 looks fantastic, but it hasnt a sun visor like the k5 S and I’m wondering which one to choose...
Patryk M. Honestly, I didn’t like the sun visor. It didn’t work for me and it fogged up. I rather have a tinted visor! But it’s really preference. I didn’t use the sun visor at all with the k3 sv misano
I love my k5 S because it breathes a little better but the k6 is much lighter.
Hello Joel!
First of all thank you for the review!
Second-hand, what exactly was wrong with your latch on the AGV K6?
On my personal K6, sometimes, if I press the button a bit sideways, it does not come back to the original position. Did you have the same poblem? If so, the dealer recomended to replace the helmet?
Thank you in advance for your response!
There are two screws that hold the front piece from the inside. One stripped off and fell which made the piece holding the latch defective. I would check if you’re missing a screw on the inside. If not, there’s a screw on your visor that you can loosen and adjust
Good review buddy ! Cheers, Eddie
Thanks :D
Yo is it normal for new k6 to get some pressure on forehead will it break in in time?Got 58-58.5cm head got a MS k6
Thanks
Some pressure yes, but if it’s uncomfortable the helmet might be too small. But you can try tilting your helmet up to see if it helps
Great review mate 👍
Thank you! I'm learning as I go but I hope I put out useful information :)
I just got mine K6 and have same issue my chin touching helmet. :/
Just gotta make sure you set the helmet right and get the strap comfortably on your chin! I haven't had a noticeable issue since
Nice infos!! The only source of proper information/review/update available so far is only from you lol.
6 dislikes for this vid, why :(
I really appreciate this! I think I'm getting attacked by a dislike bot because all my recent videos are getting disliked :\
Thank you for stopping by!
if you buy a new helmet do you prefer Agv k6? Would you turn to other products?(Sorry my Engligs not good)
No worries on the English man. That means you speak more than one language :D
I have yet to try out other brands but so far the AGV K6 works for me!
I was ready to pull the trigger on a RF-1200...you changed my mind. Best place to buy?
If you have a local Dainese store, that would be a great place to start. I would also go in and try it on first before purchasing!
If purchasing online make sure you buy from a US dealer so it is a DOT approved helmet.
do you actually notice the lightness of the helmet? I hear its only 2.7 pounds.
I actually weighed it myself and the Medium-Small was about 2.9 pounds. If you don't put a gopro on it, it is incredibly light!
good review I have a K6 coming this week as a demo to see if I want to get it. I know a lot of people think you cant hear your comms with ear plugs, not true.
You're gonna love it!
And I can hear my comms a lot better with earplugs on.. especially on the highway as well
Hi! I have the same k6 with Sena 30k... Joe do You install it? With presure clamp or 3m tape? The clamp is very hard ti install it between the helmet! How do You do it!? Thanks!
Pressure clamp for me. You need to add more rubber adhesive/spacers for it to have a successful clamp surface.
Any idea when will the s version will be out?
I need that sv.
I am not sure if they are making an SV of this helmet!
Awesome review! May I know what is your head size in cm ? And what is the size of your helmet? Thanks!
Helmet is MS and should be 57cm
@@joeltnguyen Thanks! How is it when you wear a glasses?
You do have to adjust your glasses and helmet pre ride to make sure there’s no pressure point. I don’t wear glasses when I ride now, I just put contacts on 😂
Hey thanks for the details. I'm thinking between this and HJC Rpha 90s, what's your suggestion. I know its not an exact comparison as HJC is a modular.
So I would ask yourself this. What kind of riding are you doing? Touring? City/sport bike?
I would personally never get a modular helmet unless I was going on a touring ride. I mainly ride a sport bike around the city so I went with the AGV k6. I'm a little biased since I have been wearing the K6 but honestly have no complaints so far!
Modular is better for touring (constant stopping and going, drinking water, eating, etc without having to take your helmet off all the time)
K6 for your enthusiast rider whether touring, city riding, etc. If you don't need a modular helmet I wouldn't get one!
Thanks for the the review on the AGV K6 helmet. Yes, everyone should wear an earplug when riding, unless you don't want to hear later in life. 🤣
Does the chin curtain come with the helmet or has to be bought separately?
It comes with it. There’s a new version of this helmet. K6 s, revised spoiler and fix the chin issue
@@joeltnguyen Yes. I saw that new version. I am guessing the visor of K6 and K6S is the same though. I have been a long term K3SV user and now after 5 years need to have an update.
Would you say it's a good helmet for sport bikes riding, i currently have hjc rpha 11 and its bad for the neck
Hey sorry for the late reply. I don’t get any notifications for some reason.
Ngl this helmet fits all riders from touring to super sport! Vertical vision is insane so definitely good for sport bikes since I ride a cbr600rr
How about sizing?
Sizing is good, there should be a new k6s coming soon
@@joeltnguyen in your opinion is the sizing chart accurate?
Nice job joel. Thanks
Thank you
very helpful, thanks!
You're welcome!
Thats Cool Helmet I wanna buy too
What's your favourite helmet now
Still just rocking the K6, no need to buy stuff I don't need haha
What is the size of the speaker cut outs
It should be the normal size speakers. 40mm I believe
I heard the ventilation isn’t great?
Haven’t had an issue! I like to have my visor in the City riding position so it’s a click up!
Is it suitable for round oval head?
Yes, these are actually a quite nicer fit than their previous line
What size is ur helmet?
It is a size Medium Small. Make sure to use the sizing guide on AGV.com. I believe revzilla and cycle gear uses the wrong one.
@@joeltnguyen thanks Joel
@@joeltnguyen what size do you wear in a rpha 11 pro or shoei 1200
How much better is this helmet than the k1?
$100 vs $500
K1 is a very entry level helmet. Fit isn’t great but affordable.
K6 you get a better fit and light weight helmet with improved vertical vision. Overall nicer helmet.
@@joeltnguyen have you tried the scorpion r1 air by chance? I don’t have any stores near me so I have to nag people online for info lol. Thanks in advance
@@charliej8104 unfortunately I have not. Hopefully you can’t find some better info! Have you tried searching Reddit?
@@joeltnguyen i looked on Reddit and they prefer the r1 air, but with only 3 shell sizes, a scorpion in XL is gonna look like a bobble head on me.
What's a Sana??
Sena bluetooth device
amazing context thank you. ı wanna buy this helmet with same color. Do you suggest blue iridium visor or black visor. .which one does look good Thank you.
The iridium visor is technically a race only visor which is only "legal" on the track. BUT I do own it myself and love it for the day time rides. Let me warn you though that it is extremely dark at night and under no circumstance should you have it on at night. This applies to the tinted visor as well but maybe not as dark.
If I had to choose based on looks, I would go with the Iridium Blue visor. However price wise, the tinted black visor is more affordable :)
@@joeltnguyen thank you for damn sufficent response. ı think I'll go with iridium visor.
Please help me, Agv k5 s / Agv k6?
AGV k6 forsure! But I would always recommend trying in person to see which one you would prefer.
@@joeltnguyen thank you man 🙏
@@joeltnguyen bro, Hjc rpha 70 vs Agv k6?
@@fit_ahmet Will definitely be honest and say I do not have enough opinion on HJC to give a solid answer.
Been using the AGV k6 for a year and still like it!
@@joeltnguyen thanks bro 😎
