AGV Stealth Helmets

I need to replace my current lid and I'm leaning towards a Stealth. Any one got one and want to comment on it ?

The ones on trademe from waikato yamaha? Got myself one, it's good. My mate bought one a few months ago for roughly double what I paid for it, and was kicking himself over it.

I've been wearing one for a few months now, and like it just fine. The fit, of course, is a personal matter, but I wear a size L Arai, and the same size fits me in AGV. As I wear glasses it's important for these to be easy to put on and off, and the Stealth is fine for that. Venting is good, and it hasn't fogged the visor yet. That said, the visor itself is a little tricky to learn the technique for fitting and removal, and it definitely takes longer than the "seconds" that the leaflet suggests, but no tools are needed and it seals well when shut.

Many thanks I've bought one. Cheers guys

Any problems with the wind noise?

I've been looking at an AGV S4 (5 stars on sharp) and it was derived from the stealth, but reviews say the wind noise is horrible...

Meh. Just wear ear plugs... can't understand why anyone wouldn't, my riding was MUCH better when I started doing so.

Only been on one decent ride since I bought it but it seems quieter than my FFM.

Where to buy a cheaper colour visor for this helmet?

Does not look like S4 though

I got one this time last year. Very nice fit. A touch noisy but when your going hard the last thing on your mind is "geezzz this thing is noisy".

Try it on, I found it pushed on my forehead. Ended up with a Shoei RF1000.

i have a stealth, great fit for my odd head, can be a bit noisey yes, but meh dont bother me none, the ratchet action on the visor is very very smooth and easy, meaning can be done with the thumb with ease.
