Done dirt cheap! That’s a nice helmet there buddy ! I’ve heard tons of good things about this helmet. Thanks for the review man!! 27 hours talk time is huge !
Serious range too ! Thanks for sharing !
I've got the new boom no2 with the Rockford Fosgate speakers and it's awesome... I just installed the whim on my street glide and at 80+ mph I can talk very easily on cellphone calls... it's kinda expensive but when you look at it the price of a new lid and then adding com system your gonna be around 600 bucks so it's a great buy
I agree
Thanks for the video. Had no idea about the savings going to Sena. I ordered Sena version. Will post a comment once helmets are received. Ordered one for myself and my wife.
Hey mpesho3, you’re going to live them. The first song I listened to with the helmet on was run to the hills by Iron Maiden. Couldn’t believe it. Let me know how it goes.
hi! did you end up getting the Sena helmets for you and your wife? loved them?? thanx
Yeah man love the background music, almost like they wrote it for you! Great review, very thorough great job!
Thanks, making some tweaks after a few rounds of similar vids.
Love the video.
Love all the info.
Very helpful. Thanks.
You sold me,..which color, I wish they had the matte blk with the Harley emblem, then the Harley Davidson on opposite side..
Really great review, I’m going to look into this helmet. Thank you for all the info
I love this helmet. Go try one on, well worth it
Not a “Harley “ fan don’t like the way they have branded themselves, it has worked so well just cause H-D is on it they can overcharge. The plus side of that is the stuff they put their name on is usually top quality. Nice review
Mr. McStache for the exact same product I’d recommend going the Sena Momentum Route. Since I bought this one overseas in Australia I was able to claim back all the tax when I came back to the US. That plus the good exchange rate made this a bargain.
I have recently used my sena 20 and an app called AudioMemos to record off my sena. Picks up wife and I almost too well. Working on mic distance but works flawless less noise in record than I hear in sena
Very good review as well as info! This video alone makes me want to buy this helmet for my Harley! ⛑🏍
Go for it!
Deez
Great job Andy just bought me a Shoei for my anniversary gift but wish I saw your video first
Hi Bell. Shoei is a good one. I’ll keep an eye out for it in vids/ IG
Hit subscribe, leave a comment and theeeeen check out the playlists. Review of the Sena Momentum/ Harley Davidson NO2 Helmet. Really good comfort, some wind noise. Has a built in Sena with calls, music, directions, communication system, radio.
Just got this helmet and I love it. Really needs a new face shield though. Is it the “Momentum” or “Momentum EVO”? This review is what solidified the purchase. Thanks
That was one kick azz video brother excellent review, I want you to know up front brother I'm not real happy with Sena right now and I've been dealing with Sena for about two months now and I ended up telling them that I wouldn't buy anything with the name Sena on it ever again, I bought my wife and I the Sena Momentum Pro inc helmets$1200 for both,the helmets are great for fit and comfort and the intercom of talking to other riders is nice, but the audio is down right junk, like I said brother nothing against you and I hope you know that, I mean what I say and I'm an honest man, but if I do a review of mine, it's not going to be very nice,if I could talk to you over the phone I could tell you what exactly I've been going through with Sena, love ya brother 💯, mean that to ✌️😎
Sounds like a bad deal for you man. What’s up with the audio?
@@DirtyDeez I don't know man, I've tried adjusting the settings several different ways and it just sounds like crap,go look at my last video and see how it sounds, I've contacted Sena support and they are really no help at all,
@@OZARKSHDRIDERS watched the last video of yours buddy. Which Sena helmet are you using? For my audio I use a Purple Panda mic connected to my GoPro.
@@DirtyDeez hey brother, I'm using the Sena Momentum Pro inc helmets, the audio was freaking horrible wasn't it, I hated to put the video up, but the only reason I did was to let people know how bad it really is, thanks brother I appreciate you 💯
OZARKS H-D RIDER'S audio (audio recorded from the mic specifically) is atrocious. I wound up having to purchase a complete $600.00A/V set up for my $800 smart A/V helmet. The helmet also shipped brand new with a giant scratch on the lens. I to did a ride review of the momentum helmet but have yet to publish it because it wound up being a pretty negative review and that was just a rabbit hole I chose not to go down on my channel.
I just bought this Helmet from Harley and after some research on the WHIM module if you dont have a Harley stamped Sena headset you will only get Mono sound when its connected to your Harley. Thats Harley Tax for ya.
Pretty good review, but left off the most important thing to start off with, what shape is your head and what shape head is the helmet made for? I have a long oval head so I have to get a aria or a icon. Makes all the diff in the world.
Charles, thanks for the 2 cents but I give my audience credit. If they try on the helmet and it doesn't fit, they're smart enough not to buy it. Really don't think I need to mention it LOL
Mine shows up wed. (Sena Impulse) ...$549.00 I back ordered it in Feb....
Hard call for me. I actually need another helmet but I'm at the crossroads of my personal preference. Part of me wants to get another 3/4 helmet. I like open face.. most of the time. And I really like that people can see me when I'm vlogging. On the other hand, a 3/4 helmet is a bear in cold and/or wet. And my audio should sound even better in a closed helmet.
I ride with other people less and less so the intercommunication is moving further into the back seat. Sometimes. But not often.
One thing I really liked about the 20 is the ambient sound option. When people try to talk to me on the bike, I just give up. _"I can't hear you. I'll never hear you. No matter how loud you scream, I don't hear it."_ That has led to a unique form of sign language which extensively uses the middle finger.
Music is a big deal for me. Even with my old Sena, I wore earbuds coming out of the Sena instead of using the speakers. Open-faced helmet. Lots of noise. When my old Sena died... fat battery syndrome.. I got used to wearing earbuds coming out of the phone. It sounds better and my battery lasts longer. But I have no way to talk back to my phone at this point. Not while the engine's running and CERTAINLY not at speed. Admittedly, isn't wasn't a LOT better with my Sena. Open-faced helmet. I'm guessing I could still plug the earbuds directly to the phone and use the BT to talk to Siri.
And.. with a full helmet, it opens up camera mounting options like everyone else has. Okay... even vlogging aside.. I think you sold a helmet. You have a trustworthy face.. like Jimmy Stewart but different. But it's probably going to be 2 or 3 months so, if you change our mind... let me know. ;-)
Awesome post Chris. You bring up a whole lot of good points. This one does also have the ambient sound option with a small external mic.
So many other features, I just gave a few because I want to build those particulars into a whole different video. That video will serve more as a cheat sheet for me to tell you the truth.
For earphones have you ever tried Plugfones? Check them out, very comfortable but supposedly good for hearing protection at the same time.
@@DirtyDeez I have a pair of Beats that I love.. and the cups I use seal pretty well.
Nice review Tom. If only GoPro and others would allow Bluetooth mic connection this would make this helmet top of the league!
That would be awesome. I’ll show how I have all the camera and mic stuff set up. I try to stick with the concept - the fewer pieces, the less that can go wrong.
Great review , good content brother...thanks 4 sharing👍✌
Thanks for the helpful review mate
Glad you liked it
I have the Sena Momentum Pro camera helmet and I love it... I did a review of it on my channel... got all my gadgets made into the helmet and for me it’s perfect !!
Nice I’ll go scope out your vid Ricky. Got mine when I was out of town and got a loaner bike. It’s a winner.
I ordered mine from Cycle Gear when they first came out and the only bad thing was The release date got pushed back from March to May to July but when I finally got it I’ve been well pleased!!
Great review mate 🤘
Rock on Skid
Do you still need to wear plugs. I'm
I'll be buying my first helmet and I didn't know that ppl wore earplugs and I don't think I'll like plugs in the helmets
Yeah I usually do bro. I already have some tinitus from a long ride and now I just try to do as little damage to my ears as possible. It's irreversable and you don't want it.
@@DirtyDeez I already have it lol,from serving in Iraq, that's why I'm asking. I trying to find a helmet to get so I don't have to wear earplugs, but I guess I'm out of luck. Thanks for replying.
Great video man. I have been wondering about that helmet. Super Info on this helmet.
Thanks Frosty, this content had the potential to get really nerdy with stats but I think all the major points got covered.
Great video. Thanks for the info and the explanations
Jason, glad you liked it
Breaking wind I see DD? 💨💨🤪🤪 I saw chase on two wheels do a review on this helmet months ago, I wanted to buy one, but with 27k down on the Indian already, my range was limited. Cool review mate...keep the farts coming!
Those farts were hard earned and well deserved 😆
Just got mine today. Where did you buy the tinted visor? and great review man thanks!
Hey Glen, I had to go to the Harley dealership and they ordered it for me. Took about 2 weeks and glad I did. Let me know if you pick one up. They call this helmet the “Boom NO2” at Harley.
Dirty Deez just got it to today and i tell ya. I’m loving it. Told my wife to call me and i took my bike for a quick ride. I asked her if she could hear the wind and she told me no. Love it! And thanks for responding man. Safe riding brother.
Absolutely, I tell you what - this is the first helmet that I actually enjoy wearing. There is a way to boost the audio through the app too in case you have loud pipes or just want more volume. With every penny. Safe riding brother. 👍
Dirty Deez damn I didn’t even know there’s an app for this lol I thought you just connect it on your Bluetooth 😅
@@kgermita great review! what’s the name of the APP?
Hi ,I'd like to know is the helmet rain proof ,will the Bluetooth system not get damaged if you ride on a rainy day?
Absolutely rain proof.
Nice helmet with some really nice features. Glad it’s working good for you. Nice review.
Thanks Bruce I’m pretty much settled on this model or new versions of it from here on out.
Great review
Techn' Moto thanks for that I know you’ve done a good share of them.
I’m tempted! I love my 3/4 helmet. I would want to take it with me at all my stops though instead of leaving it on the bike.
Absolutely! I have a small lock on my handle bars that I use every time I leave the helmet behind. Also pocket my GoPro when I do that. Have to protect those investments.
Great review, thanks! No buffeting? Is this with or without a 20” windshield on a Harley-Davidson touring model?
Excellent question Superdog, this is with no windshield and no faring on a 2007 Fatboy
Dirty Deez I don’t use a windshield on my ‘08 Road King during the summer unless it’s threatening rain. Winter months yes.
Super review and YOU have me sold. Can’t find it any cheaper than the Sena website so might as well buy from them along with the tinted shield.
Thank you!!!
I just bought the helmet the other day are there two speakers or just the one on the right side? Cause I was under the impression it was surround sound
It’s both speakers. If both are not working take it back
How to fit a gopro in chin direction for vlogging ? I dont see it can be very proper for gopro
Hello Akung. If you message me on Instagram (Dirty.Deez) I’ll send you a picture of how I set up the GoPro for this helmet.
@@DirtyDeez give me the Instagram link
@@DirtyDeez Please send the pictures how the install the gopro with the new gopro case inveild gopro adapter .
Nice review, thanks :)
Thanks for watching Alihan
I can't part with my helmet...lol. The only thing is I can't find any replacement visors....so I may have to make my own. hahahahaha Cheers, man !!
I only got this one because I was out of town and needed one. Then I have my Sedici which is even lighter than this one but not as comfortable. Then there’s my lucky helmet that I don’t use because I was in a wreck with it.
I purchased this helmet where did you get your visor?
If you buy the Sena Momentum do you still can connect it with the Harley Davidson Boom Audio system, like the HD NO2?
Would you step up from it to the Sena 30K with the built in camera. I've watched Adam Sandoval wear it, and it always sounded a little muffled as compared to his regular vlogging helmet. I do like all of the convenience of the helmet having all you need in it. 😎😎
Personally I wouldn’t only because I film with my GoPro off the bike sometimes. I also need to be able to see through my visor to the back screen of the GoPro to be assured that it’s filming.
Dirty Deez That makes sense. You must have your GoPro set up high on your chin to see your screen as I can see mine on my HJC modular 😎😎
good price . Do they have the one with the camera out now ?
They do are you thinking about getting one?
@@DirtyDeez I am not sure if you can adjust the camera angle very well ??
How do I turn it on and off
I might need to fit test this bad boy!!
It’s worth trying on. Everyone has a different shaped head so it could be a perfect fit or you could say “Deez is full of it”
Where did you get the tinted face shield?
Had to go to the HD store and have them order it for me. Ford the HD and Sena version of this helmet
Does it let you record audio then?
Not sure - any audio I record is through a direct line to my GoPro. I wouldn’t trust recording audio or video any other way unless I can see confirmation that it’s on.
Anyone advise what it's like in the rain, visor leak, wind noise.
It’s great in the rain and comes with a PO lock so it won’t fog up inside. Not the quietest helmet but I wear ear plugs
Hope is the air flow on this helmet compared to your previous Sena helmet?
Hey Rambler, my previous helmet is a Sedici carbon fiber. To tell you the truth it gets so hot here in TX that I can never tell the difference in ventilation. I can tell you that this helmet is worth the money.
Dirty Deez - I had the previous Sena Momentum INC, and the air flow was quite bad. The Momentum Evo (and the HD version you have), is supposed to have better air flow, but there’s hardly any reviews out there. So I’m trying to find out how the air flow compares to the previous version.
Ok Rambler, wish I could give you a better answer. I will say that the comfort of this helmet is second to none.
Where do you get your visor?
Not a bad set up. You've got my thinking that I need to save the cash for it now. Was thinking about updating all of motovlogging equipment anyway
Mystery Macaroni if you’re in the market for a helmet and a Bluetooth system it’s not a bad deal.
So does this like.... plug into the wall to charge?
Yes it does. Crazy right - have to plug in my dang helmet but such a great piece of tech
What the link for the tinted face shield
I had to go to the Harley Dealership and have them order me one. Tell them you need the tinted shield for the Harley Davidson Boom NO2 helmet.
I thought that helmet came with the 20S, or am I mistaken? When did they put the 30K in the Momentum?
The Sena Momentum is 8-way Bluetooth (like the 20S). The Harley N02 is the same as the Sena Momentum Evo (Mesh like the 30K). Hope that helps. -Alyssa
Hi how can i connect it with my phone? And how to reset the helmet?
The helmet pairs to the phone by bluetooth. All the reset stuff is in the manual but you can do a hard reset with a pin.
Do you think it would be worth it to get the INC version ? For longer rides. Thanks !
Hello Napoleon, what do you mean INC?
Dirty Deez sena makes another version called the Momentum INC which stands for intelligent noise control. It basically works like Bose noise cancelling headphones. I’ve seen mixed reviews on it. They also have a version with a camera.
How about air circulation on a hot day
Where’d you find the tinted shield?
Went to the HD dealership and ordered it through them. It arrived in a few days
Dirty Deez thanks man. Can’t seem to locate one anywhere online
Purchased this Helmet, got every thing working ok but wanted to sync the helmet through the app to by pass the audio max volume as the sound was not loud enough. Tried to do so by following instruction, doesn’t work. Contacted Harley Davidson here in Australia as well as Sena( Sena did not wont to know about it because its a Harley helmet) Harley Australia do not know what they are talking about and tried to be helpfull but had no idea what to do about it. Very disappointed given the cost. Even the HD or Sena apps do not work and are not for the correct helmet, they do not connect to the helmet. I want to access the settings to make adjust,ents as on page 44 of the PDF. Extremely disappointed.
Where did you get the helmet tinted shield?
Had to go to the Harley dealership and have them order it for me. Tell them you want the tinted shield for HD Boom Audio helmet
Were did you get the visor from?
Hello.,, how long is the battery life?
About 5 hrs
Where did you get the visor?
Had to go to the Harley dealership and have them order one. Same one fits the Harley Davidson Boom NO2 and the Sena Momentum. Let me know if you pick one up, I think it was about $30
Can you use the helmet while charging at the same time to maintain battery life?
Unfortunately not
only 3 hrs of music that ruined it for me. im glad i finally got my answer before spending 2-3 hundred bucks to listen to music. ill stick to 20$ earbuds
Cool. For earbuds try Plugfones
Nice review, thank you. I wish it had a sun visor that flipped up into the helmet.
So do I
Check out the Sena Stryker helmet
Thanks
No problem
Nice helmet, better review!
Thanks Don, more to come.
Gotta start pinchin them pennies lol!
$50 a month for 6 months boom
I sure is a helmet with lots of features. With the amount of bad drivers we have here, I only buy Snell approved helmets lol.
This is one of 3 helmets, it’s good to rotate
Far more protection then my old half shell that I still wear most of the time. Oddly in my neighborhood nobody wears full face helmets that ride cruisers or more specifically Harley Davidson‘s. I am slowly coming around but it is a massive adjustment.
Wind Reaper it is an adjusted, but for the good bro.
Sena Sucks.... just kidding man, I just watched the podcast with DanDantheFireman. hehe. Hope your day is going well.
Sean Inness LOL! Thanks for coming by to check it out 👍
@@DirtyDeez Just watching the review which is the second video I'm watching, just plucking books off the shelf, so to speak. I'm enjoying the breakdown on this helmet. Lots of good detals. Good stuff.
1.7 kg for the entire world other than our backwards nation... Also Sena (senna). That is how they pronounce their name, not an opinion. Otherwise thanks for a good review.
Thanks. I say Seena because I can't bothered
beautiful,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,nice,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Right on
Infidel? Hell yeah
Absolutely and you should see the back of the shirt. It has a US trooper holding up the bloody head of bin looser
@@DirtyDeez Subscribed after seeing the T shirt and yeah your vids are real nice. Cheers from India ❤️
Nice review, thank you. The helmet is made in China, so no thanks.
Cool, what helmet do you use?
Dirty Deez , I’ve had several helmets over 25 years of riding. That said, I don’t think any motorcycle helmet is made in the USA anymore. The helmets that are the most comfortable for me are Arai - Japanese made. Try a helmet on and wear in the shop for 20 minutes. If it’s going to hurt, you’ll know by then.
Where did you get that tinted visor?
Had to order it at the Harley shop - same as sena helmet
