Great review, you point out many important aspects of the helmet use and features. Thanks. I still have my simpson from I think the 80s the features are just like the outlaw as well as the flaws when riding. But the outlaw seems more like a car helmet than a motorcycle helmet.
Ghost bandit is really really loud. Reminds me of wearing a beanie helmet with the straps cutting the wind. Wear earplugs unless you want to lose your hearing.
I love these helmets. I had a biltwel lanesplitter then tried to buy one of these. The medium fit well, but the chin part was resting on my chin, so wouldn’t work, and the next size up was too big and a little loose. Unfortunate.
I just got the Outlaw Bandit recently. I plan to eventually switch to the Ghost Bandit or maybe the Mod Bandit to have a modular. Not sure yet. Also looking at LS2 Modulars potentially. Great comparison.
Great review of both. Was thinking of getting a outlaw street I got dumped with my ghost. Think I’m gonna go with another ghost. Just mad that my FTW ghost Bandit isn’t made anymore
Thank you for the video, it's really helpful... I just bought the Ghost one After your review, but I realized that the Outlaw is Snell approved and this Ghost not. Cloud you please confirm that, cuz that's my main feature to have for this helmet.
Outlaw bandit has the cooler style to me but unfortunately looks like it’s cheaper made by a long shot . Also more expensive so that’s messed up on many levels
@@Ishootfilm412 it doesn’t have a modular version , it doesn’t have a drop down tinted internal visor , it leaks when it rains . But it’s snell and it looks cool
@@jacobroberts2976 a drop-down visor makes a helmet, less safe that’s why you don’t have a snell approval. It’s Mort to impact your head if you crash. Just wear sunglasses or tinted visor. A modular version in most crashes open up and you’re smashing your whole face anyways . It was designed that way intentionally to not have all those luxury fancy white girl features.
I wish Simpson would start using Fidlock system & Transition visors ... I owned a Mod Ghost & Outlaw Out of the 3 I loved my Ghost best... but compared to my Klim Krios Pro... my Klim has way better features... only down fall on my Klim the visor Detents suxs !! Other than than... if Simpson would add the fidlock & Transition pin lock visor ...on their helmets I would consider Simpson Ghost again...
So you got a Large size for the Ghost Bandit and an XL for the Outlaw? I love the look of the Outlaw but here in Europe they're almost impossible to find. I had a test-fit of the Ghost Bandit and the size Medium was perfect for me... this means I should order a Large for the Outlaw? I should get it from the USA, so getting the wrong size would be a disaster :-(
Great video. You've made some excellent points comparing and contrasting the two helmets. Going to have to check the Ghost out!
Wow great review. I really prefer the styling of the outlaw but man the ghost has all the features I actually want :-|

Owner of both and agree with everything you said. My only issue with my new helmet (ghost) is I look like an ol timey diver. It’s huge 😝
Agree, I wear a Ghost and def feel and look like a Bobblehead!
Great video man. I started looking for an upgrade from my Outlaw because of that damn visor position that you mentioned. Shit drives me nuts.
Thanks bud
Honestly couldn't go wrong with either of them and if you got coin buy both of them
Love my ghost bandit!

Thanks for watching! MP
are you sure the ghost is a grade below the outlaw seems like it’s just a all around better helmet
Awesome video just what I’ve been waiting for 👍🏻

I just bought the Ghost Bandit Tanto. Was at 415 and got it at 250.. Always wanted a Simpson helmet... Now I need an outlaw motorcycle haha

Nice review. Appreciate you!
Best review so far! My ghost bandit has a lot of wind noise coming in going down the road do you have any idea why?
Yes - it Vents like crazy .. making the 👻 a hot 🥵 weather winner 🏁
#EarPlugs are always an option

It’s snell approved which imo is better.

@@Ishootfilm412 it should be cheaper in price without all those things , not more expensive $$$
The only reason the ghost isn’t snell approved is due to the flip down visor. Snell will not approve any flip down visor
you read my mind on this video was literally debating on the 2 the last week... went with the 👻

Nice, thank you, you you think the size chart is accurate? I tend to want to go bigger
So you got a Large size for the Ghost Bandit and an XL for the Outlaw? I love the look of the Outlaw but here in Europe they're almost impossible to find. I had a test-fit of the Ghost Bandit and the size Medium was perfect for me... this means I should order a Large for the Outlaw?

Do they both fit the same? You have the same size in both?
Just ordered one. For $150!
Good video. Thanks!
How are they with wearing glasses?
Good considering I do
"I've never felt any airflow in helmets anyway" -you in other video
Does the internal sun visor interfere if you are wearing your glasses?
Not at all. I wear glasses every ride
Great video thank you
Your an awesome son , I’m back 9 mos. Later finally ordered my outlaw will be here in a few days , ghost bandit will be next “
Right On “
It it worth having the ghost on a sports bike?
Sure, if that's your style.
Where are these helmets made?
Communist China!
China
What size Simpson do you wear?
I have to wear a XL in the outlaw bandit. Lg in the ghost. I'm normally large
Worst helmet ever in the ghost, it pulls your head all over the place with even a slight look to your side, whistles with the visor up and is noisy AF
