    Caberg V2 407 helmet. Opinions wanted!

    Need a new helmet my HJC is slightly under sized and i want something with good safety rating, wanting to spend about $300 been looking for a while and I've found the Caberg V2 407 Hell Racer catch my eye and they get 5/5 star on SHARP, now i have very bad fogging issues even with Muc Off anti fog (Which helps ALOT(but get sick of applying it)) what i want to know with this helmet is will i regret buying a helmet without a nose guard or does a nose guard even help with fogging? And does this helmet have a good demisting system (wondering this because i see two vents on the front but are not adjustable and seem to sit to the side.)

    Thanks KB'ers!

    By the looks of things, the Caberg Hyper Shield AntiFog insert is very similar to a Pinlock insert. Pinlocks are the shiz - antifogging treatments don't come close

    You have to consider shape as well as size. Trying them on is the best way to find a helmet that fits well
