In this video I unbox and do an initial review on Bell's Race Star Tracer helmet. Below is the link to where I bought it. Bell Race Star Tracer Helmet www.revzilla.c...
I can't decide between the gloss/ white or matte/ grey! I've ordered both and will decide then. Having an xs head I've gotten these at a crazy price of $180!, although in 2020, they're obviously old stock
Nice!! That is a great price. Yeah, I would check the SNELL and Dot certification to see what happens when they expire. I know most helmets have those expiration dates. You can't go wrong with either color. They both look great.
I would have gone for a Scorpion EXO-R420 and save a ton of money! But then again I'm a cheap bastard. I just don't believe the hype with helmets, it's more of a 'statement' then anything.......and I own Shoei and Arai helmets too. Funny thing is I usually go for my awesome LEGENDARY 'Bilt' helmet when riding though. :) I don't know, it just fits well on me..... maybe I just have a cheap head. *shrugs* Nice helmet you got there though, I dig it.
I hear ya. I'm pretty cheap myself. My previous two helmets are bilt helmets. I finally said the hell with it and bought me some higher end gear. I have to say that there is an obvious quality difference. I have yet to crash with this helmet but I'm guessing that it is much safer than my $100 bilt helmet. I have heard that Scorpion helmets are pretty awesome though and not nearly as expensive. But thanks, I'm happy with it so far.
@@MotoBeto82 Nah my Scorpion is fine, I got it for £120 and its a good helmet for the money, but its not very comfortable, its noisy, and the visor won't sit flush above the true locking position (which I like sometimes when its warmer and im driving through cities at slower speeds). This Bell Race Star is leagues ahead. I actually bought the Race star in grey last week and the three air vents, fit, and general visbility is leagues ahead. Not knocking Scorpion, they are good for the money, but you do often get what you pay for. I think this whole 'statement' thing really isn't true. Sometimes you can pay over the odds for sure, but if you look around you can get a Bell race star for £300 , half price. a few dealers on ebay are selling them on sale, happens quite often. I have had SHOEI most of my life and I love them, but my skull is 2XL and getting a good fit can be tricky
I agree. Based on my previous two helmets, this Race Star is much better than both. The quality difference and feel of the helmets are worlds apart. For me, it was worth paying the extra cash for it.
You sound so enthusiastic about this lid its inspirng
the helmet is that good the table at the start is shaking from the sheer awesomeness of it being on top!

Hi Bro.! I have same helmet exactly same. How did you install the pinlock? Mine is look like too big for visor. Thx
Hey man, what's up. The visor with pinlocks came with the helmet, I didn't have to install them.
