Incredible helmet at twice the price
I've owned a few helmets in the 15 or so years I've been riding, none of them top-shelf, some cheap, but most around the $300 price point. Then I got this helmet... the styling, features, build quality, materials and fit are on par with anything I've had that costs 3x or more.First, the technicals. I'm a medium in most brands, intermediate oval (given the choice), and prefer the way SHOEI fits over Arai. This LS2 fits as good as any I've had in the past. Nice and snug, no slop when I shake my head, my ears don't bend in half when I put the helmet on, and no noticeable pain points after a decent ride. I bought it in white, the pictures show the decals as black and red, but there is no red on the helmet I received. That aside, the quality is impressive, you can find plenty of YouTube reviews for details but the gist is that nothing about this helmet feels "cheap".Now the style. Sure it's subjective, but this thing looks badass. Most helmets are either obnoxiously aggressive or look like something grandpa wears on his two-wheeled RV. This helmet strikes a balance between the two, confident without being annoying, aside from the four "LS2" logos begging for attention from every angle.The only gripe I have with this helmet is the lack of a detent on the clear visor between fully closed and fully open. I'm used to having an extra "click" that keeps the shield open just a crack to allow for extra ventilation on hot days. But the integrated sun visor makes this more of a nit-pick than anything.

Gorgeous helmet, but pretty round.
This helmet is stunning. It feels super well built. The speaker cut outs are in kind of a weird spot, but they fit my 45mm JBL Cardo speakers well enough.The drop down visor is fine, but doesn't really matter to me as I have prescription glasses with transitions. The main visor is either open or close, there is no in between. That's strange.Unfortunately, this helmet didn't fit my head. The chin guard is too far inward and while it was a beautiful quilt to it, it also rubbed against my chin. Most helmets rub my chin a little, especially while talking, but this one was rough. The chin guard also sat too high up and exposed my chin.The chin strap is a quick release and is fantastic. Every helmet should be this way.I didn't get to ride with this helmet to test wind noise or vent usefulness, but it looks made well so I'm sure it was fine.Beautiful helmet that unfortunately just didn't work with my more long-oval head.

Comfortable helmet
Was looking for a new helmet and found this L2 Stream. I liked to look and that it has an internal second sun visor. The helmet is very comfortable and fits perfectly. The sun visor is great and ventilation works very well. This helmet is a great value for the price.

Fogs in the cold and harsh windnoise.
A little narrow on the temples. But overall great helmets, fogs quite a bit in the cold. And a whole lot of wind noise. All which is common in a very cheap helmet. Very vibrant colors which reflect well at night.

Runs small, order size larger
Ordered extra large after seeing reviews saying ran small. Fits good, snug and tight. Should fit better as it breaks in. Haven't rode in it yet, will update my review then.

Kick Butt Company, Chrome World selling the proven LS2 line of helmets
I screwed up delivery of items meant for my garage and instead went to a 100 year old ARMY Air Corpsman for his birthday. My uncle received a LS2 full face helmet accidentally, along with assorted other items that he gave out gleefully to his nursing home staff. I retrieved the helmet, Chrome World, learning the story sent my uncle the LS2 open face Spit Fire helmet depicting bombers painted by their crews in WWII. He loved it, the nurses and staff as well. When buying on line make sure the helmet fits, LS2 has a variety of styles and pricing determined in large part by usage of the helmet, solid product and reputation for the price. I have serveral different styles, different uses and different seasons, but all are LS2s. The vendor in this case, one to keep in mind, very responsive, customer driven company. Good Job Chrome World!

Nice helmet
Nice helmet. Comfortable, but a little loud at speed. ECE 22.05 rated.

Tight Fit, Cheap Parts
These Helmets run small. I used their size chart and ordered a large, I also have three other large motorcycle helmets and they fit me perfectly, but when I tried this on it is very snug, which I guess is okay if you want your face looking al squished up. The way the Helmet is designed allows only your eyes cheeks and nose to be seen, again my other helmets at least allow others to recognize you. The front of the helmet is so close to your mouth and nose you can hear yourself breath even with the shields open and directs your breath right up your face causing you to sweatWorkmanship wise there are loose threads hanging off the stitching, another part that was supposed to be sewn in pulled out on one side unattached. The drop down inside goggle does not match the rubber supporting piece that it is supposed to fit against, the rubber is is off center, alot.. The mouthpiece vent is made of the thinnest cheapest piece of plastic I've ever seen, if you literally push it a little too hard it will snap off and break. The Helmet looks and feels like if you accidentally drop it the thing will split apart, my other Helmets I own are built solidly and sold for about the same price. The quick release chin snap is also made of cheap plastic and will not last long.I would not buy this helmet again, and pray if I'm ever in an accident that it protects me and just doesn't fall apart.
