LS2 Helmets Assault Full Face Motorcycle Helmet W/ SunShield
B**R
Swings way above its weight class!
Did tons of research looking for my first full-face helmet and ended up going with this LS2 Assault. Best combination of safety, price, style, and features out there. Includes all of my must-have's such as active chin and top vents (in other words, vents that you can open & close unlike a lot of the Simpson's,) retractable sun shade to eliminate the need for glasses when combined with the included clear visor, a pinlock ready visor, light weight, quick detach chin strap, and DOT & ECE approved. In addition to all that, it actually includes the pinlock shield! Plus, it has a unique KPA shell that is comprised of polymer mixed with aramid fibers which makes it both lightweight, flexible, and strong with penetration resistance too.Looks-wise to me it has that streetfighter style with the large flat chin and the aggressive brow vent lines similar in looks to the Simpson Outlaw & Speed Bandits. Lots of shell paint options including some wild graphics. I chose the Petra matte black/gray/graphite pattern, which just looks badazz and is different than all the plain matte blacks you see out there. This thing just oozes quality.My head is just over 60cm, which puts me just a hair over the Large size on the size chart. I'm glad I went with the XL because this thing fits my head perfectly. Yes, the cheekpads are very tight, but will loosen up after wearing it on a few rides. I am told that you definitely want to start out with tight cheek pads because they will conform to your face for a proper fit.So honestly I do not see what more you will get on a helmet costing hundreds more (Shoei, Arai, Schuberth, etc.,) because this LS2 has it all. And yes, it has the wrap around neck curtain and the flexible chin curtain, so it is about as quiet as a helmet can be with that nice seal. Lots of full-face helmet users complain about noise levels, which is just funny to me. You don't know noise unless you come from my world of no-helmet or half-helmet usage. I have found this LS2 to be a lot quieter. Anyway, good luck with your decision...

Great Helmet
This helmet is very nice, it helps quiet the noise during your ride, and is very comfortable! It is great quality as well!

Incredible helmet for a very reasonable price! Built in sunshade and includes antifog film.
This is my second LS2 helmet, the first one lasted 2 years and I got this one just to be safe as my motorcycle instructor explained that the padding in helmets that saves your brain in a collision is like styrofoam and breaks down over time/gets micro-fractures each time the helmet is dropped.What I love is the styling, built-in sunshade (not antifog, so treat it with some antifog lens cleaner), really great visor - keep it clean and the view is fantastic. Also, the option to open or close the face/top vent is really helpful. It also comes with an antifog Pinlock film custom fit for the visor (saving you $40).Complaints specific to this model: The view if I'm in a super aggressive riding stance during high wind, his speed, or rain is more for upright stance, so when I lean down it is necessary to crane my neck up just a little more than I would like to. This is fine as my bike is an adventure touring bike and I seldom ride that way, but I wish there was an inch more upward view. Could be the fit on my head too, not sure. It's also not the quietest helmet, but riding motorcycles rarely is a quiet activity.In summary, I love LS2 helmets and am very impressed with this model. The sunshade and vent levers are easy to access and if needed, I can pop the visor open a crack for really cold rainy days when even Pinlock can't keep the fog off the visor. I feel that it is very well designed and trust it for protecting my head. The visor comes off easily for cleaning and ventilation is good enough to usually keep from fogging, but also not so much that it gets too cold or hot inside.

Awesome feeling helmet but Shell is HUGE!
Loved the helmet, and at a steal of a price! Got it on sale for 50% off, but had to send it back. I wear a Medium, and the shell was HUGE! Like Spaceballs HUGE! LOL... If your head is on the larger side with a heavy set body, then this helmet is for you. I'm 6'2" 235lbs Athletic build and it still made me look like a bobblehead. Other than the shell size, the helmet padding felt amazing. I'd say it runs small though! Get one size larger than usual. Cheekpads are very TIGHT! Keep that in mind!

Quality and Comfortable
True to size fit. Absolutely love this helmet. Not too much wind noise on my '23 CB650R. Comes with anti fog lens and a drop down shaded sun visor which i didn't know. Highly recommend.

Great helmet all around
The box came beat up but no damage to helmet. It looks amazing out of the bag. I like that it came with pin lock visor and all the other nice features. It feels really good material inside. The fit is a bit smaller than my other medium but I wanted that. Took it out for a ride and was amazed how much less noise there was compared to my Z1R helmets. The vents seem to work well. Going highway speeds no buffering or bobble head so thats a big win. Overall great buy and value.

Gorgeous!!!
I tried this helmet on in a bike apparel shop and loved it, but didn’t purchase it that day. Thankfully Amazon had it and it was shipped fast. I did purchase the rainbow iridium visor for it but I love that this helmet has the built in sunglasses as well. This design is gorgeous in the sunlight!! It fits perfect and I can’t wait to wear it on my next ride!
