I'am looking for a new helmet this year. I currently have a HJC Tucker helment (similar to the CL-10). What helmet do you have brand, like or dislike, any have a ski-doo BVS2 helmet or skidoo modular or other. Need feedback or deals
 
Helmet

I wear glasses and they gogg when riding, I tried the doo modular a few years back. Never looked back ! I love it and will get the same style when I buy another helmet. They are not for everyone but I love mine.
I am looking for another one for my KID ! Anyone have a XXXXL Ski Doo Modular for sale ?
 
i aslo have a ski doo modular and i really like it. no fogg at all every and ive had it for three years. the only thing that i dont like about it, but they have correted on the new ski doo bv2 is the periferal vison is poor.
 
I have an HJC CZ-X2 (in blue of course), and an HJC CL-14, which is a fullface and also in blue. Helmets have never fogged, EVER, even without the breath guard. Awsome stuff, I highly reccomend them. My family uses G-max helmets and Rocket helmets and theyre preety good too.
 
I have an AFX FX-9 ultralightweight. I absolutely love it, best helmet I've ever had and weighs almost nothing. Got it for X-mas and I believe it's about $70.
 
i have a hjc ls airtech 2 ya i know it is kinda old but works good and a hjc cl 14 about the only helmets i like are the hjc's
 
I have worn full face helmets for years and finally decided to try my moto X style helmet on the sled one day with some dual lens goggles. I was amazed at the difference. It was so much lighter and i got great air flow straight into my mouth. You could not have explained the difference to me i just would not have understood it. I felt like was a new man and had wasted years stuck in a full face I will never go back. JMHO

what about in the real cold weather? don't you have some exposed skin with the moto-x helmets?
 
If you go to the Polaris website, they are touting a new helmet that they have developed that is supposed to be impossible to fog. Hopefully, the new design will cross over to all the manufacturers. It is not a modular helmet, either, which is interesting.
 
AC-X2 with Smith Snow Warp Goggles. I have a full face as a 2nd helmet, but haven't touched it since switching to the motoX style.

I bought an HJC CS-Air this year. It worked great. I cured the glasses fogging problem by using contacts. The only problem is my glasses are progressives and the contacts are not. Great while riding sleds, but can't read a menu to save my life. I just ordered cheese burgers!!!

It's raining..... sigh.

Exposed skin with Moto X helmet???????
I wear a face mask under the helmet same as i did with the full face and there is no exposed skin. I ordered the Scott goggles with built in thermal mask and nose guard to help out when its below zero.

Thanks guys for all the feedback.

sled4me2 I have contacts too, work great, I almost had one froze when it was real cold. Well it felt like it, I just kept blinking.
 
:WayCool: We have HJC full face and as to the model I have no idea. The only time we get fogging is when the shields get wet on the inside when the helmets are sitting on the sleds and it"s snowing. We always carry some paper towel to dry them off. As far as air or wind noise getting in it"s hardly noticeable. We wear high neck fleeces and balaclavas and have never had a problem even when it"s -28deg. ;)!
 
I also wear glasses and have had many different helmets. I can't stand having to take them off just to put my helmet on. My last HJC I wound up with nearly bloddy scratches on my temples and then and there I decided a modular was the way I was going to go.

I choose the Skidoo (made by Lazer) Modular in black. I love the sun shield. My collette communicator fits but I'd prefer deeper ear pockets for the speakers. It does fog up. I can't stand the breath deflector except on the coldest days. It makes my nose run. I leave the deflector out most of the time. It can get a bit cold especially leaving the visor up 1 click from the down position. Ya I'd like the heated visor but the price is a bit too high. I have my previous HJC available for the real cold trips if I need it.
 
I have a Ski-Doo Mod. and a HJC CL-X4 I bought the mod. back in 02 and I love it. My only problem is when it's really cold the vents freeze over but that's no biggie because it will take almost all day before it happens. I use my HJC when I'm mountain riding because I can breath better.
 
Don't go w/ Choko. The VP from Montreal and I had words. Got 2 helmets for my daughters, wore them once and fogged up right away. He didn't want to stand behind his product and said there was a trick to making them work properly but was willing to offer two elec. shields at no cost.[just what I want to do is wire up my sleds for extra visors]. I said no trick and didn't want the shields just my money back. FINALLY after a heated discussion he was willing to go w/refund. Went w/ a CS-12 and CL-14 and had absolutely no problems. Alot more venting options. ;)!
 
After much reading and all the great input I bought a Modular - silver. I hope I will like it? My brother-in-law has one and really like it too.
