LS2 Helmets Modular Valiant Helmet

Never thought I’d spend this much on a helmet but this is big time bang for your buck and actually a really good value. The modular aspect is fantastic. Had to return for next size up but this is super comfortable. I did not get too much wind noise, wasn’t bad at all (behind a windshield). Ventilation is good. Transitioning from full face to open, to shield down to darker shades are all very simple while riding. Helmet is not too heavy, I already rode for hours with no issue. Wish I bought this helmet years ago and will buy again if the time comes for replacement, I think it is a terrific value, very versatile and actually entices you to want to wear a helmet. BTW, it is a very good looking helmet. Field of vision is amazing for a full face modular. Additionally, I wear prescription glasses and the helmet is very glasses friendly. Very pleased with this model.

I had to order a 3X size but finally found a helmet that fits my big head. I also like its light weight and the 180 degree movement of the chin piece. Quick release chin strap is a nice extra that I didn't expect. The package also included a "fog-free" visor that can be swapped out with the original. Another unexpected feature. The helmet is very comfortable as well as being good and snug when on. Easy to get on and off even wearing hearing aids. All in all I'm very pleased for the price!

This helmet is basically a Shark called an LS2 (shark 2?). Beautiful Pearl White gender neutral, chin gaurd can be pushed all the way to the back of the helmet out of sight out of way. 3/4 clear face shield, tinted visor slides in or out. Quick release neck strap super easy but feels secure. Only found my larger size on Amazon these helmets tend to require your next size up Good venting quiet for a helmet (lol) but put the shield down and crank the music. Helmet had chin scarf sounds uncomfortable but feels great. Has cushion on back neck pretty sealed but good fresh air can easily lift chin gaurd and have open nose down. Great Helmet!

After a mechanical failure on my previous helmet I bought this one. I like a modular helmet, but they aren't for everyone. I have a particularly large long oval head and the XXL fits me like a glove. On my previous helmet I had to file out some of the Styrofoam to make it fit my head, but not this one. The mechanism is amazing and very smooth. Everything interacts perfectly and never binds up. When you close the chin bar the face shield automatically lifts out of the way so that it doesn't interfere. After lowering the chin bar you can again lower the face shield. It's just a really versatile comfortable helmet. CONS: So, if it's so great, why not 5 stars. First it's a little on the heavy side, but that's to be expected with a modular. Next, the ventilation is marginal at best. Finally, it's a really noisy helmet. While I haven't taken it on a long trip yet. I think it would wear on you unless you used ear plugs or noise cancelling earbuds. All in all, it's the most confortable helmet I've owned.

Good and ok

This helmet came with everything from a pin lock to a helmet holder to keep the fatigue down a special tool to remove the shield and a 5 year warranty. Fits a bit firm at first but that’s part of the break in. Great padding throughout the helmet.

With the distance driving and cruising the disadvantage is you can only wear and carry one helmet. Some hriders have flip up but they look odd with the visor up like a knight befor jousting. This LS2 will give you a comfortable style and virsitlity all in one. With the chin protection down you will notice the stream line and quite ride for those highway rides. And once you have arived at your destination. You can flip it up and back the chin protection to reveal a 3/4 helmet for cruising down the strip its like a hard top convertible. Its peefect for the highway and once you have arived at the beach its time for top down driving in style. Very comfortable i have a big head so the 2 XL fits perfect nonneed fornshades with the inside tinted visor. Dosent fog light weight great chin strap release space inside for headphones this had benched all my other helmets. Very happy i bought this LS2.

Just getting back into riding after a long hiatus to raise a family and am stunned by the leap in technology both of design and materials. I rode high performance machines back in the day and wore high dollar helmets of which I still have one. I thought it was pretty comfortable then but after wearing the Valiant the old helmet feels like a clamp. The Valiant is the most comfortable helmet I've ever worn by far. I've seen many reviews both here and other sources complaining about the ear clearance and tight cheek pads. All I can think of is those folks must have really big ears and fat cheeks because I had no problem whatsoever. The inner cushion material is very soft and conforms nicely. Buy it. Get white. The MSF stats show the chances of getting hit are reduced by up to 40% by simply wearing a white helmet. Another nice little feature is little mirrors on the rear and sides that will flash in the headlights of other motorists and grab their attention. When open it looks like a flight helmet.
