Started riding motorcycles again after almost 40 years away from it, and boy have I missed it! This channel will be about my journey back, the bikes I learned on, what I own now, and all the gear, parts, accessories, and rides I've tried and recommend. Still feeling kind of like a new rider, but I'm jumping in with both feet! Join me if you're new to motorcycling, or just getting back into it like me!
LS2 Carbon Advant X Helmet Update
After about 12-15 hours of wearing the new LS2 Carbon Advant X, I share my first impressions on fit and comfort. I don't get into wind noise because to me, most if not all modulars are noisy compared to fixed full face helmets.

Supershox Unboxing & Installation

After much research and deliberation, I finally decided on buying the Supershox Premium SL shocks for my 2020 RGS. I watched and read reviews on just about every brand out there... Legends, Ohlins, Wilburs, Fox, Progressive, etc. This brand hit all the right buttons for me. Great warranty, great reviews, great customer service. Best of all, when I called with a few questions, the owner actually...

Unboxing of brand new LS2 Advant X Carbon helmet
I has the same issue with a large and once I got an XL it became the most comfortable helmet I've owned.
Is it possible to remove the red details on the sunshield? I would like it to just be black.
Side thought since it looks like you own a different one. Ls2 helmets are more of an intermediate oval head shape so if your head is more round you maybe want to look at a different brand that has a more rounded headshape?
When I buy a new helmet, I wear it in the house for 45 minutes. Any helmet that hurts in that 45 minute time frame gets returned. I don't feel a helmet should ever hurt, and once you ride in them, you can't return them . And even though I measure 60 cm which is a large on most size charts, I find that most of the time it takes an XL to fit me comfortably due to my head shape and larger ears.
That's actually some great advice! Looking for my first helmet to buy, I'll do that as well. :)
Yeah it's probably because it's for people with long oval melons....you don't look like you have that shape swede
I cant choose, its this or the scorpion exo tech carbon pls help me :)
@@omarmontana1969 the Scorpion has no exit vents on the back.
@@dh2392 yes, but is that really the only thing?
@@omarmontana1969 they both only come in 2 shell sizes, so I don't personally see much difference, but I don't own either one. I want to try a large Advant X, but the helmet seems to be sold out everywhere. If the large isn't comfortable, then I would probably just return it for a refund, as I don't want to be on the smaller side of the larger shell size.
What Cardo unit do you have installed?
I'm a new subscriber. Good review. Thanks for the information. I'm kind of in the market for a new helmet. Leaning towards a modular.
I got my carbon off Amazon and ordered the slim cheek pads the next day. I wish they made a photochromic visor for them
Sounds like it should be one side larger
Long oval helmet .
Thanks for the update!
Another great video! Looking forward to the follow up to this one in a few months.
I had an LS2 valiant when i was riding. I hit a deer and flipped over the bars and never even realized i hit my head until i saw my visor broken off laying on the ground. Helmet has some scrapes as well from the wreck. Very comfortable helmet brand and will be purchasing another when i get my next bike.
They’re definitely a well-made helmet. Very popular in Europe. Not that well known here but that will change in time
Did u get ur pinlock
I did, but just forgot to show it 😅
It may rain in 2 days so I'll just stay in the garage and work on my bike.
Thats the best way to pass time on a rainy day!
I just watched a guy from Denmark unbox his with 3 black helmets on his table, his was a gorgeous gloss black carbon but the same model FF901
I think the gloss black carbon is only available overseas. Haven't found any for sale here in US
Looks to nice to hide on a bagger. Would be interested in availability for dyna and how they performed 😊😊😊
I’ll be posting a review next week
Did u ever do a review
Not yet. I’ll be posting a review in about a week
How did it fit since you went to a large from the prior model?
My concern is exactly what was said ..bobble head with the XL
How is the L.. I measure the same a xl but could maybe get away with cheek pads
I just posted a short term update. Let me know your thoughts
looks great 👍 what’s the price of the helmet?
$499 USD
Been debating ordering a set for my Ultra for about 6 months. Contacting them today :)
You'll love them! It will take a few rides to get them adjusted just right for your comfort level.
I’m going to try the Scorpion Exo Evo Tech Pro the LS2 was TO TIGHT …
Depending on the shape of a rider's head, it can definitely fit too tight. I think LS2 fits a round head fine, but you'll need to order a size up. And it takes at least 15-20 hours of use before the pads break in and conforms to the shape of your head.
Thinkin of buying one but nowhere to try this if it fits well. Is it round shape or long-oval as most LS2s are? my head prefers a more rounded ones.
I have a round head, so for me the LS2 seems to be a better fit than other brands. You'll just need to probably go up one size. Keep in mind though, it takes some time to break in the helmet pads, so it may seem a little too snug until you've worn it at least 15-20 hours. Try ordering through cyclegear.com. They have free returns for 30 days.
Great video!!!
Thank you!!
hello you! I have this helmet but I think the strap is too short, do you have this problem? I would like a little more strap
Hi Giannis! You can lengthen the right chin strap quite a bit by pulling the outer portion of the strap down. You’ll need to pull off the plastic cover on the metal clip at the end first. Keep pulling till it’s long enough for you, then reposition end clip and upper metal strap clip and it should be fine.
@@newharleyrider I'll try it tomorrow to see if I can make it longer! Thank you for your advice!!!!
I tried one on at Bike Week, and it was very comfortable while standing there. I look forward to hearing your review while ridding.
Thanks for watching! I’ll be posting a long term review in about a month
@@newharleyrider Any plans on the follow-up video?
Just posted an update on the helmet after riding with it for a couple months
How much did it cost you? And which country u r in ?
I paid $499 USD. Ordered it online at cyclegear.com. I'm in the US.
Another awesome video. Now, I want these LEDs for my bike!
Go for it!
Amazing video and coverage on this new helmet!
Thanks a lot!
