Yea, I know, it's not legal here, but I was in Europe last fall when the N3 was released. My last helmet was a Shoei GT Air (got an end-of-production of the first gen) and the comfort difference is outstanding.I don't like the ratchet strap as it complicates something that was dead simple. Switching between seasons is hard because instead of just cinching, I have to adjust to fir over a gaiter or bare neck where the double D just tightens to what it needs to be. I wish companies would stick with simple.That said, everything else in the N3 is exceptional. Guess my ECE version is a bit lighter than the US DOT version, but I can't imagine I am giving up anything. I just stuck an Iron Butt sticker on the rear where the DOT sticker would be and called it a day. If ... MoreYea, I know, it's not legal here, but I was in Europe last fall when the N3 was released.

If some cop wants to make a stink, we'll deal with it.The sun shade is far better coverage, the pin lock seems to seal much better - no fogging at all where my GT Air used to let a little fog at the edges. The front vent is more than sufficient and the visor lock really seals the helmet up nice.I wear ear plugs, but this is by far quieter than the GT Air.All in all, it's the best helmet I've ever owned and I've had some really good ones.

I am a long time Simpson fan and have had others, but after extensive researching and trying on helmets in store and utilizing the wind simulator, I honestly think I found the perfect helmet for my riding style. This thing is incredible, its a perfect true fit and quiet. I installed my Cardo pack and I have been missing out for years. My helmet is now my personal entertainment center and my music sounds INCREDIBLE at 70mph on a road glide, phone calls are crisp and clear because this helmet does so well. I am glad this helmet has come into my life and the modular feature is perfect for red lights or just casual conversation. For the record, I tried on the neotec3 and the rf1400 in the wind simulator (roughly about 40-50 mph) and I didn't notice a difference to where ... MoreI am a long time Simpson fan and have had others, but after extensive researching and trying on helmets in store and utilizing the wind simulator, I honestly think I found the perfect helmet for my riding style.

Just bought and returned a Shoei Neotec 2 to my local store. Ordered the Neotec 3 from here and received it within 4 days. Extremely fast international shipping. Thanks visor shop!As far as the helmet, this replaces my Shoei RF1400 full face. Comfortable, decently quiet, and the modular part is very practical. As far as the comms go, I moved my Sena 50R over to it and the speakers fit nicely. I add spacers behind them to get the speakers to sit closer to my ear and this reduces wind noise plus makes them sound better.As far as the Anthracite color, it's a tad darker than the image shows and it's a high gloss metallic flake look. Not quite what I expected but it looks good enough I'll keep it. Visor shop should update the photo of this color choice.Highly ... MoreJust bought and returned a Shoei Neotec 2 to my local store.

Just purchased to replace my black RF-1400. Was skeptical of trying something other than a full face helmet. Tried a few on in store and could instantly tell this was the helmet I was looking for. Wind noise is about equivalent to my RF-1400, but the comfort and shape are so much better. The integrated SRL3 is far better than my Cardo PalkTalk Slim. Sound quality is great. Access to the buttons and functions are easy. Light to the touch.Thank you to Willie at the Bedford, TX locations for helping me out. They are my go to spot for parts, gear, and even occasional meet up with others in the community.
I bought this after having a bell bullit for the last few years, I got so sick of wind noise, I ride motorway speeds every day and so a quiet helmet was the main motivation, I prefer a more retro style helmet but they just aren’t known for being quiet and so I thought it was worth sacrificing some looks for the sake of my eardrums. Since having it I’m a complete convert to having a the creature comforts, not only is it lovely and quiet, I no longer get off my bike with ringing ears, I use the inbuilt sun visor way more than I thought I would, the flip up comes in handy at petrol stations etc, I bought the SLR-3 along with it, a bit tricky to fit but nothing a few YouTube tutorials couldn’t get me through. Now i have music playing whilst I ride which is amazing!

I have always liked Shoei helmets. The Neotec 3 is a little bit difficult to get on. However once on it is comfortable and quiet. I gave it 4 stars because of the strap and buckle mechanism. I had a C3 Pro helmet before the Neotec 3 and I never fell in love with that buckle mechanism either. However, the C3 Pro buckle system was slightly better.1. The receiver buckle and strap are too short; they are not effective when pulling the helmet on.2. The flaps under the buckle are difficult to keep in place when securing the buckle system, if not careful it is possible to pinch your neck skin. The old C3 Pro had Velcro on the flaps, they were longer.3. The buckle system does not have the range or ease of adjustment that a D ring system does. It can easily take 5 to 10 ... MoreI have always liked Shoei helmets. The Neotec 3 is a little bit difficult to get on. However once on it is comfortable and quiet.

It can easily take 5 to 10 minutes to adjust the buckle system length. Forget using a balaclava.Please bring back the D ring system. I would pay to have one installed on this helmet. Shoei Do Not Copy Bad Designs from Schuberth.
This helmet has a few issues. One, its noisy. For a helmet that cost $900 the wind should be a lot quieter. Two, the drop down sun visor started rattling after about a two months. It is really annoying.. Third, and this is the biggest problem I have with the helmet. The cheek pads come unbuttoned almost every time I take off the helmet. The buttons are just really cheap. This helmet is not what I was expected out of a brand like Shoei. If I could return it I would. This will be my LAST SHOEI
Coming from Gen 1 of the Neotec, I was expecting a good difference at over 2k with the Sena unit. Not that it wasn’t any good, but after 8 years, it could of been a tad more confortable, have much better lateral noise dynamics and a simpler integration with the Sena unit.I’m happy to report all these little things that started to add up have been mostly solved by on this 3rd Generation.Much better lateral noise control, visor that’s much easier to operate while riding (and using at different levels - lower than before) and a much better integration of the Sena unit (not perfect - but better).Simply, I see Shoei a bit like a Porsche 911 - no drastic changes - but continuous ameliorations that in the end make for a better fit, finish and overall enjoyment when ... MoreComing from Gen 1 of the Neotec, I was expecting a good difference at over 2k with the Sena unit.

Without being scientific in my observations, I would say 10 to 15% quieter in general and no more hiss when side winds hit.Overall I recommend upgrading to the unit. It isn’t perfect, but when your looking for a do it all helmet - it’s hard to beat. Yes it’s expensive, but this isn’t the point if you’re looking at a Shoei helmet. Cheers.
Having had several Shoei helmets before, I had no hesitation in choosing the latest Neotec 3, which is the most comfortable helmet I've ever had. My chosen colour of Anthracite is far better in the flesh than the photographs suggest, and is actually a gloss finish; the photos make it difficult to differentiate from the Deep Grey model. Service from the team at the Infinity shop in Norwich was first class; all the staff were very informative, helpful and fully professional. I additionally purchased the Sena SRL-03 comms system, and this was fitted to the helmet in the store, along with the pinlock.
I own a six year old Neotech 2. I replaced it with a Hornet X2 as the Neotech 3 wasn't available in the US yet (am very happy with that, but still want a modular at times). Now that it is, I was going to buy one as a secondary (non off road and summer use) helmet.I read some comments that the sun visor that now comes down a 1/2 inch farther than the 2 hits some peoples noses so I went to my local cycle gear today to try one out. Sure enough, it rest just on the tip of my nose when in the fully down position. Tried lifting it a tad, but then I could see some light in my peripheral (and who knows if it would stay there over time).Very disappointing as I was really looking forward to getting this as nothing fits me like a Shoei, and I like the few changes they made ... MoreI own a six year old Neotech 2.

May end up buying another 2 while they are still available.
