HJC i100 Flip Front Helmet (Matt Black)

(196 reviews)

The HJC I100 motorcycle helmet looks like a premium full-face motorcycle helmet with its angular aerodynamic sports look - but in actual fact, it is a flip-front modular helmet that is P and J homologated for ultra-safe riding in all positions. Made from Advanced Polycarbonate Composite Shell, the I100 is ultra-lightweight yet highly protective. The chain bar is rotational, making it easy to change but also makes this ultra-secure in each position. HJC's ACS Advanced Channelling Ventilation System offers top vents and 2-step toggle lower vents with total front-to-back airflow that flushes heat and humidity out of the helmet. The clear visor is anti-scratch coated and offers 99% UV protection, and this comes with a clear Pinlock anti-fog insert included. An internal sun shield prevents sun glare and is easy to use while wearing gloves. The crown and cheek pads are removable and washable for superior comfort, and a glasses groove allows easy wear with glasses. The HJC I100 is ready for HJC's SMART HJC Bluetooth communication system - sold separately.

First off. I love the helmet. One of the quieter modulars out there and a great fit. Unfortunately the helmet fell off of my handlebars and the chin bar mechanism (internals)
broke. The left side popped out while riding on the interstate... When I went to put it back down it flipped into my field of view. I had to pulled off and rig the helmet to get
home. I can't find replacement parts to save my life. My fault for dropping the helmet but it should have survived the whole 2ft drop.... Show more

I normally don't write reviews, however after seeing some of the other comments, I felt I needed to share my experience with this helmet thus far.This is my first modular so I don't have any other experience to compare it to. My last helmet was a Gmax full face helmet.This helmet is very comfortable and if you have in-helmet speakers you'll love the deep pockets for the speakers. With the chin locked down, the helmet does have a little bit of forward weight. Not to the point of being uncomfortable though. With the chin in the rear position, the weight is perfectly balanced.The visor does not have different locking or ratcheting positions. It's held in place by friction I guess you could say. So far this hasn't been a problem. Whatever position I open it to, it ...

So far this hasn't been a problem. Whatever position I open it to, it seems to stay just fine.One of the complaints I saw a lot of with the visor is that it won't completely close shut if you use the tabs at the bottom of the visor, which is true. However, you do NOT need to put your hands on the middle of the shield to close it all of the way. I've found if you just push down the very top edge in the middle, it closes just fine. No need for finger prints on your shield.Also this shield is pinlock ready and comes with the anti-fog shield insert. I've ridden in temps below 32 degrees and had zero issue with it fogging up. It does exactly what it's supposed to do.With this helmet completely closed, I don't notice much of a noise difference between this and my full face Gmax. With it open as a 3/4 helmet there is a slight rattle but not nearly as bad as I was expecting. Also the drop down sun visor is very clear with no distortion and no gaps.All in all, for this price point, I would definitely recommend this helmet if you're looking for a good modular that doesn't break the bank....

1. Uses double d loop strap. I prefer this as ratchets dig into my Adam's apple.2. Helmet is very creaky3. Sun visor is a very generous size compared to other helmets4. When you go from 3/4 to full face the visor comes down with the chin bar. you can pinch your fingers pretty easily so instead you have to smudge your visor with your fingers to get everything in position.5. the double d loop retention straps have stitching (see picture) that painfully scratches your face every time you take the helmet off. never had this problem with any other helmet before6. when you try to put the visor down with one hand, the visor will not come down flush. the side of the visor that you push down with one hand will come down but the other side won't all the way. ...

Helmet comes with pads that cover the speaker pockets. remove this or else your ears will be smashed against the side liner. speaker pockets are big and deep enough for 40mm speakers.8. Chinbar is the rear position is a floppy mess, even with the "locking" red peg on the side of the helmet.9. chin cover is very difficult to install and comes loose anyway when you flip from 3/4 to full as it hits your chin on the way down and pops out....

Good helmet with annoying chin strap

3 September 2023

Fits well after I returned my Large and got an XL replacement. The modular feature is nice but for some reason, it tends to direct air right into my eyes if I'm going at or above 45 mph. Might just be the shape of my jacket or head. It has cutouts for bluetooth speakers which is nice. My only complaint is the chin strap. It is very annoying to fasten when you're wearing gloves. My old $100 helmet had a much better chin strap by a long shot. Otherwise, it's a good helmet... Show more

Good so far

31 December 2023

Riding season hasn’t started yet so no review of the helmet while riding. One negative for now is the activating lever for the sun shield is hard to slide. My old HJC had the lever on top which was easy to find and operate. My Sena50S clamped on just fine. Looking forward to using it this summer.... Show more

Helmet fit

29 March 2024

It is too tight in the cheeks and lower jaw. I don't know if the pads are too thick or if it is the way the helmet was made. The top part of the helmet fits good. Also having issues with the clear visor fogging even with the vents open.Thinking about returning it if I can't get the helmet to fit. This is my 5th HJC helmet and the 1st one that I have had issues with.... Show more

HJC i100 - Beis

25 April 2024

noisy compared to my ls2, but fits well and the fold over chin section makes riding far more pleasurable. The noise seems to be from the chin hinges and is a bit like having the window on the car open a crack. Also a cold draft on the top of the head even with the vent closed. but over all light weight and ok for 50 mile trips... Show more

It's perfect... for some people

31 December 2023

First--I'm new to the world of motorcycling, and this was my first helmet. I think it looks like there's a planet on my shoulders where a head should be because of how large it is, but maybe that's because I'm just not used to other helmets.So, why is it four out of five stars? Well, I got it in June and the gear that moves the visor and chin up and back broke... in December. I would have liked a more robust mechanism so that it didn't break, but to be perfectly honest it's a super unique and cool idea to be able to open a helmet up like that. If HJC had made the mechanism out of metal and not plastic, I'm sure it wouldn't have broken (but maybe it wouldn't be a good idea to stick a bunch of oddly shaped metal pieces right next to your ear in case of an accident? ...

I'm not an engineer, HJC probably knows better.)In the summer it's incredibly comfortable to be able to open up the helmet while riding around town, but to still have a chin bar in winter when you don't want to freeze your face off. The built in sun shade works well, and other than a small mechanical failure (parts were available online and replacing them was a walk in the park) I'd say it's a great helmet.If you can't decide to have a full or half helmet, this is perfect for you. I LOVE having it both ways, and I guess the cost to that is that this is an expensive helmet and that it needed replacement parts after half a year.... Show more

New helmet.

9 July 2024

This is my first time that I have purchased anything from Webb's, and I must say that I'm super impressed, the ease of ordering on line, the choice of product to choose from,and the delivery time was two working days from ordering also the price was excellent.I love the HJC however this is my first flip up helmet for touring in Europe in september. On writing this review I not used the helmet as yet, but I'm very happy with the fit and the quality of the helmet.I will be buying from Webb's again in the future. Thank you at Webbs 👍... Show more

Very nice, versatile helmet.

6 May 2024

I am impressed by the quality and attention to detail in this helmet. It can be readily used as a full face or open faced helmet. There are no rattles or similar noises while wearing in full faced, open faced, full faced with the shield open, or open face with the shield open, even when not behind a windshield. The sun shield comes down far enough to actually work. I've had several full faced and open faced helmets over the past 35 years, and each has its application. This helmet works for all of them. It has quickly become my favorite helmet.The helmet does run small so order a size larger than normal. I've owned several HJC helmets, including an old modular, that were all XLs and have a FXR helmet in size L that fits great. I needed a XXL in this model to fit ...

I've owned several HJC helmets, including an old modular, that were all XLs and have a FXR helmet in size L that fits great. I needed a XXL in this model to fit right. Although not advertised, there are several sizes of cheek pads available from HJC ranging from 15mm to 35 mm. The Large i100 comes with 25 mm pads, the XL came with 20 mm pads. I needed 15mm pads for the helmet to fit correctly. The cheeks pads are tighter with chin bar locked down. Finally, being a modular, it is a little heavier than other helmets. In my view it is worth it to get the added convenience, safety and flexibility.... Show more
