Really, I have still not found any helmet which is easy to use with the glasses.
But, I guess those Schubert helmets are too much heavy.

I thought about buying a Schubert or a Nolan n103, but finally I bought an Arai Corsair.
They say those helmets which can be opened are not so sure as the full closed helmets.

I also tested Nolan 103, but it feel in my hands too "plastic" cheap product....

I use that Shoei XR-1000 for fast drive in twisty roads (and race track surely), but that C3 is ideal for long jouneys and touring.... :smoke:

Don't remember where, but somewhere I read some tests have showed that the Nolans and its "de-luxe" brand X-Lites are the best helmets, even better than Arai, Shoei etc.
Obviously, I read it after I bought my very expensive Corsair :,( :,( :,( :,( :,( :,( .
Later, I bought a Nolan N41 to go to downtown on the scooter...

As i tested Nolan 103 and Shubert C3, i can say only, that Nolan was "cheap copy"... Its easy to buy N103 for about 340€, but not C3... I see, that those "germans" can make very good quality products today, but they are NOT cheap and they have only few colour in they helmets scale... just like germans are.... Sorry, Gerhard, but its so...

Frankie, maybe You read some Italian magazine test?... :mrgreen:
