Anybody used a HJC CL-XS?
Not having much luck with ADV helmets and kinda at the last resort. I had the Grex RD1 till i crashed. It was OK but was very easy to fog and there was bugger all room between my chin and the front of the helmet. Then tried a Airoh S4 and found it didn't fit very well (would move my glasses around when as the helmet moved when over 80 kph) and whistled badly.
I've got a cheep HJC motox helmet that fits really nicely and I quite like wearing it when it is warm but when it rains or is really cold (below about 5 degrees) then not so pleasant.
Thinking of trying a HJC CL-XS but I don't like the look of how the visor seals (or doesn't which might = whistling) and I don't like the talk of the visor being flimsy and without a tab for opening it. Positive as I see it, is that it will give plenty of wind and rain protection while still flowing enough air to stop the fogging and that it is supposedly the same shell as the HJC motox helmet I have so should fit nicely.
Anybody got one and used it for long enough to have an opinion about the visor seal and durability? Going to take a can of HTFU and use the motox helmet if the CL-XS visor sux.
