Opinions on the icon variant!?!?!?

[BimmerFREAK09]

Just been thinking about picking up an icon variant and need some opinions from people who possibly own this helmet...

I was going to get the same helmet buy after seeing what all it takes to switch screens I went with the icon airframe. I ride to work in the dark and go home mid day in the sun. I carry a smoked screen to work and clear on the way home. Just something to keep in mind.

See changing screens isn't a big deal cuz I ride all day and night with a smoked on my airframe but I just wanted some info on buffeting, high speeds, air flow, comfort... **** like that....

How do you like the airframe I just got it and haven't been able to use it due to snow[mad]

I have the Icon Construct (same thing as the variant)

I love the helmet for the most part, Its the first "Nice" helmet i've ever owned, so I may not be fully qualified to speak of how great it is compared to other high end moddel helmets. It does not catch near as much wind as i thought it would have. If you are able to try it on in person before purchasing. It was just a tad tight when I first got it, but it did break in some after a while.

I absolutely love my airframe!!! Great breathing, minimal buffeting at 140 plus... Kinda fogs up at low speeds in cool weather but once you get going its good... Idk how well you can see it in the pic???

And ok... I've heard they breathe well but at high speeds I figured that they'd suck but if you say I'd be surprised then I'll take your word... I can't wait to get it!

I mean I'm still apprehensive but also excited...

I have the Variant and I love it, high speeds are not an issue seeing how buells don't go fast

True lol but I still like to push it...
