Thanks for watching please subscribe and leave a thumbs up. Ride safe 👍 czcams.com/users/HelmetHead
I’ve had this helmet for a year and totally agree with your comments - particularly the negatives. Having said that it’s a fantastic helmet for the price and I’d happily buy another. High safety ratings too!
Congratulations for this amazing review, really honest with all the essential points. Nice job 👏👏
Thank you 😁👍
FYI, there are speaker cutouts in the helmet, the are not round but they are there! 👍, if you remove the lining you will see them, which makes it super easy to install any intercom, so that makes it an even better helmet, caberg helmets are just brilliant!! Good review BTW 👌
Firstly there is no issue at all opening the front with thick winter gloves, ive had this helmet for 3 years and commute with it 365 days of the year. Also there is cut outs recessed inside for the comms speakers.
For the price it's been a brilliant lid
Thanks for the review, i'll have to consider it. I already have an open face caberg. I have an agv compact quiet heavy, its alright in the open position, but just catches my chin when closed. Not comfortable for longer distance trips.
Totally agree with the negatives, I have a Caberg Tourmax (that is the same model as the Duke) and it have the same "issues"
HI thanks for this great review. You do not mention it, but this helmet has a top notch shock absorption rating (both at the Sharp UK website and also tested independently by the German Motorrad magazine, where it scored a record low HIC value of 858)! An amazing achievement for such an affordable lid!
Thanks for the comment 👍 your spot on 5 🌟 rating 😉
I've just taken delivery of my third Duke 2. I didn't even bother to shop for or check out any other helmets I just saw the Duke 2 on offer and bought another. This time the 3rd one has come with the Pinlock fog-resistant lens whereas my first two had the laminate insert. I use my bike every day in all weathers for work and I've found the Duke 2 to be more than up to the rigours of a daily commuter. I'd have a guess that I've used the last one for well over 15000 miles. It's still in good condition but is starting to look a little tatty.
Top review 👍 It's on sale at the moment at superbike factory. So I've ordered one and thanks your advice.
Nice one 👏 I'm happy I've been able to help 👍 enjoy your new Helmet mate 😉
Just had mine delivered, nice fit and great value. Some helmets that cost more than twice the price don't score five star on the sharp test.
I have the Duke 1 for years only negative is I get a lot of wind noise,
But in every other way I love it
What type of camera are you using ? I got the same helmet and I want to install one.
i find caberg helmets really great! have the rhino and duke for years now, over 5 years infact with the duke as the newer one. i fitted the rhino with a BT and with a little tweaking inside, all the mechanisms of the BT works really well. one downside of the rhino is actually the venting - in a hot tropical country like ours, it could be quite hot amidst riding in the hot sun (and traffic!). the duke runs a bit cooler but i guess these models are not really designed for tropical climates - not critical at all. i just love the chin cover on the duke and it lessens the wind noise substantially. it is just unfortunate that nobody carries these brands anymore in my part of the world.
Hey! I'm from the Philippines too! Check Team Graphitee, they have a branch in QC and Navotas. They sell Caberg, Ride safe!
Great review! Thanks
Thank you 😁👍🏍️
Which Advice is this Talk/Radio Modular? Is there a camera included?
I was wondering what you think about the helmet after your recent Adventure. Nice review 👍
It's a great lid for the money 👍
Me gustó el vídeo.
Does it make a lot of noise when riding at 120-130 km/h?
Great review. Does this helmet have plenty of room for glasses or a even a glasses groove to accomodate glasses. Thanks
Hello yes I wear glasses and have never had a problem with the fit. Here is my long term review czcams.com/video/MocF0jzOAzQ/video.html
@@HelmetHead Thanks.
Just ordered this in the "smart black" colour scheme as bikes black, also got a Sena 20s evo to go on it, do you think this will be a good combination? Great honest review 👍👍
Hello yes definitely a good combination 👍 I'm running mine with the Sena 10c pro and it's working well for me. Thanks for the comment 😁
@@HelmetHead well that's a relief to get a thumbs up from you or that could have been a costly mistake lol, must admit not looking forward to setting the Sena up! Many thanks for reply, safe riding 👍👍
Good review 👍
Thanks 👍
One of the great review
Keep it up dear bro ❤️👍
I want to buy caberg duke II
Can you help me
Hello here is a link for the Helmet www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01MTNGCUP/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=B01MTNGCUP&linkCode=as2&tag=helmethead-21&linkId=0e6d01506fe3d42f304aea29fc4ec0f6
How would you rate its air flow? I ride mainly in warm weather conditions, being from India, so air flow with the lid closed becomes important.
I like the fact that the sun visor comes down quite a bit. It's an issue that I face with my Airoh Exec.. Flip off helmet, where you can remove the chin bar completely. It's light but this is 5 Star Sharp rated.
Hello the airflow works really well with the lid down. I'd recommend buying a white one as it won't hold the heat as much. For the price of it I'd say it's the best on the market at the moment. Hope this helps 👍
@@HelmetHead ...thanks for the input. Was a bit confused with the nomenclature - Duke 2 - Impact, Legend and Superlegend but I think they're about the colours and graphics.
Can i fit the ebay £30 bluetooth system on this helmet ? any inner channels for the cables ?
I've got the Sena 10c Evo on mine but no cut outs for speakers etc but it fits OK.
Hi, would you recommend this one over the hjc i90? Right now theI can buy the Caberg at 150€, whereas the hjc is at 200€ (both of them with sales prices). Thank you so much
Hi yes I would the HJC is suffering from more wind noise at this price point 😉
Thanks for the review, I see it does not have a rear exhaust, does it cause any issue while riding in the sun?
I find the white helmet seems to stay cool so I don't have any problems.
@@HelmetHead thanks for the answer, I am gonna order the same from FC-MOTO to India.
I’m used to wearing a full face and thinking of changing to a flip face. Are they designed to fit more snug against the chin so you can’t pull them off in the closed position?
Hello I've done a more recent review that is a lot better and my answer somw more of your questions czcams.com/video/MocF0jzOAzQ/video.html
I have a cardo freecom 4+ with jbl speakers. I run them in my scorpion helmet but i can’t hear any music or navigation from the speakers. So how is the volume of the speakers in the Duke?
I run a sena and I can here it fine at speeds of around 70mph.
It all depends on wind noise. I ride a 2011 GS and have a Cardo Freecom JBL mounted in a LS2 Valiant 2 helmet. Sound is loud enough. Maybe you'll have to reposition the speakers.
Nice review
Thanks 👍
Closing it using the one hand to hold the rear idea while slamming it down with the other, a better way is to bring the front down to the almost closed position and using both hands at either side with thumbs under the bottom and fingers on the top pull down the final bit to click into position, much easier on the clip mounts
When the chin strap is done up you only need one hand to close the flip front, no need to slam it just lower it into place. Have used a Duke 2 for around 4 or 5 years now. Also never had any problems with the front open button with winter gloves. Only complaint is the sun visor doesn't go all the way up and stays in view at the top.
Is one of the only helmet that is fitting me well. What other helmets did you used?
Hi I also find the Shark carbon is a great fit. 👍
@@HelmetHead What is the model because there are a bunch of carbon helmets from Shark
@@LucianCioranu It was the Shark Spartan Carbon here is link to an old unboxing video I did. czcams.com/video/k_yDMBITenY/video.html
I have one of these trying to buy a pinlock.. order wrong one twice..where can I buy one thanks
Link for you - amzn.to/3MhnoVH
what is the brand of that camera?
It's a Sena 10c pro
This looks the same as the tour X model. Without the peek
I know you bought it for the camera bit, but personally I don't want to sacrifice the protection I get from a solid full face for anything.
I can understand that. It's not for everyone.
What is that on the side
It is a Sena 10c Pro.
I want to buy this helmet
Can u help me brother
Great review. I have two of these helmets with a third on the way. you´ve got to colour coordinate. No kidding aside, it´s the total between the missus and I.
One aspect you left out, is the safety aspect. The Duke II has a 5 star Sharp test rating (highest possible) with the visor staying in place 90% of the time, which is rather good for a flip helmet.
Keep up the good work!
Link to the SHARP website for reference: sharp.dft.gov.uk/helmets/caberg-duke-ii/
Thanks for the comment 👍
but isit safe ??
One of the best on the market with a 5* sharp rating.
