Reviews
of this new brand of motorcycle helmet are basically the same. The
SparX brand of helmet is a cheaper or discounted brand introduced by KBC
motorcycle helmet company. KBC did this because they realize not all
motorcycle riders have the money to spend for a KBC helmet, which can
cost a few hundred dollars. The SparX S-07 costs one hundred, forty
dollars for the modle with a graphics paint job and one hundred, nine
dollars for a helmet with solid colors. This is a very reasonable price
but just how good is this China made motorcycle helmet? Yes, to save
costs so they could sell the spar brand so cheap KBC sent the
manufacturing of the new motorcycle helmet to China. KBC need to do this
to compete in the $150 and less motorcycle helmet market that has
exploded in America in the last few years.
The
Spar helmet is DOT approved as well as ECE approved and has a five year
warranty.And how about this innovative feature---if you crash your
motorcycle while wearing the SparX helmet you can send the helmet along
with the police report of your wreck back to SparX and they will send
you a new one for free. Now that is a nice deal!
The
reviews I have been reading give the SparX helmet a good overall
rating. The selection of different colors and graphics is large with the
Retro Corsa being a very nice graphic for the helmet and a great match
for owners of the GT1000 and other MotoGuzzi and Ducati riders. A couple
reviews stated the new SparX helmet is is a higher quality and better
made than the KBC motorcycle helmets! I am sure KBC likes to hear
this!The liner is very comfortable and fits very well. The breath guard
is not in the riders way and the fit and finish is excellent. One item
about the new helmet that appears to be a slight irritation is the
visor. while the visor fits perfectly the tab is too small for riders
wearing gloves and the visor removal is not very refined but is not
really a big problem.
The
fit of the SparX helmet is very good and if you are thinking of buying
one keep in mind the size runs about one size smaller than normal. Air
flow through the top vents is decent and the vents do not have any
moving parts so you do not need to worry about anything coming loose and
fling off. The new SparX S-07 motorcycle helmet is classed as a
lightweight helmet and this lends to a nicely balanced motorcycle helmet
you can wear for long rides without neck strain. Noise levels while
wearing the helmet are rated as lower than most helmet, even when
compared to more expensive motorcycle helmets. The chin strap is padded
ok and is secured with a generous plastic snap system. the shell of the
SparX helmet is made of thermo composite and is equipped with the
popular D-ring attachment system.
The
new SparX S-07 motorcycle helmet is comfortable to wear with a very
good fit. The range of solid colors and graphic designs is very good, so
much so the helmet looks like a much more expensive motorcycle lid. The
overall quality is excellent and the smooth finish on the outer shell
provides for reduced noise levels. If I were in the market for a new
motorcycle helmet I would give the SparX S-07 a good long look.
