Pinock visor is a MUST. (30.07.2023)

This helmet looks great and has excellent sound mitigation.
However, the peripheral vision for head-checks to the side (for instance, when changing lanes on the highway), is quite narrow. It is certainly narrower than the vision afforded by my Bell Race Star helmet. For commuting during the chaos of rush-hour traffick, the narrower vision of the Shoei GT-Air 2 is notificeable to the point of being slightly dangerous.
Another complaint is that the stock visor will instantly mist-up from the rider's breath. Installation of the pinlock anti-mist lens (supplied with the helmet) is EXTREMELY helpful.
