I'm thinking of buying an Icon Helmet, any one has any experiece with them? or what helmet would you suggest I purchase? I currently have a Buell ( kbc?) and a Bmw Enduro, so I'm open to any option. Thank you. | ||

I bought on Icon mainframe earlier this year, and I love it. It fits well, and wind noise is minimal. It did fog up a bit at first, but I just had to open the top vents. Switching shields from tint to clear is super easy. | ||

I bought the tyranny...I like it alot and the scala q2 fits in there pretty nice. Dride is right that they fog, but I put in a Progrip no fog shield liner which solved it..I say it is worth the money... | ||

I have the Domain 2 and bought it when they first came out. I have loved it so far but it is at the end of its life with me. The bottom rubber trim piece is falling off and superglue is not holding. I have had it for 4+ years and it just started to fall apart. Shield changes are easy and color/tint choices are plentiful. Common complaint with Icon helmets is the visor does not like to stay down when you look over your shoulder to do a lane change. I have had it happen maybe 5 times in the time I have had it and it happened at times I was umm above 80mph. It is annoying and slightly dangerous but so is going that fast and waking up in the morning. Super easy to clean and the graphics/color opions are some of the best. I like the flat black rubatone but it gets hot in the sun in a hurry. Go try them on I am sure you have a local dealer somewhere close. | ||

I got a Mainframe as my first helmet, liked the graphics but it was extremely hot and jerked my head around at highway speeds. Switched to a Scorpion Exo-700 a couple months laster and was much happier. | ||

Un fortunatelly in spain there is only one shop that had icon, and the only item the had was 1 jacket and one pair of boots, seems it was purchased by a client of the shop when he was in the US, but i have 3 icon jackets (got fleabay)so i'm searching around for a new medium one reasonable priced. Thanks for all the info. | ||

I enjoyed my Alliance SS. I have to say my current Arai Corsair is far superior, though. | ||

Hmmm....after seeing their ads for the last few years, and taking a look at the new Icon line courtesy of the Oct issue of Motorcyclist Magazine, I have come to the realization I might not be their demographic target. Is this for real? http://www.rideicon.com/speedcretin.jsp | ||

I have the Icon Airframe, $300 US. I like it, doesn't fog up, lots of vents. I use a medium, it puts some pressure on the front of my forehead after long trips. That could be because of my blockhead!! other than that it just right.  | ||

My Icon mainframe was a disappointment. Chin vent ceased to function. Paint (silver) did not hold up to the slightest abrasion, you could scratch it with your fingernail. Icon customer service was not helpful. I finally gave up and bought a Nolan. My 2c |
