1107 viewsChin bar back, visor down. I noticed that the visor has a slight tint. The visor is NOT a quick-release type so those who do track days or carry a second visor (one for day, one for night) won't want this helmet. This is a road going helmet; if I decide to do track days I will have a helmet for that (likely Bell or Arai).

1104 viewsMan I love the look of this helmet! Wind noise is greatly reduced compared to my noisy HJC. The helmet doesn't feel like it's pressing around the ears so I can hear my bike better. One thing that was noticeable was the air entering the face area. There are vents in the chin bar that are always open so this helmet will be nice in warmer weather...not so nice in cold weather unless I wear a face mask. Wearing my sunglasses was easy in my HJC but they don't fit quite as straight in the ROOF.

VERY SIMPLE proceedure and the Benley is helpful as well. See main section 7. This can be done in less than 5 minutes!

1082 viewsYup, ya gotta rip the bed up as part of the removal process. It's held down very well with long staples. Bed can be removed through the hole in the roof. So, after the Riviera is re-installed and screwed down, the bed bottom goes in last and is stapled down.
