Looking for a new lite weight helmet. Currently running a HJC,nice fit but a bit heavy. Any ideas

Suomy MR Jump is ~1000g
Anything made by Airoh is pretty light

Most European helmets are lighter because the ECE standard is different to the american snell/DOT testing. I think Snell/DOT use a helmet test more suitable for road type crashes, so the helmets are denser therefore heavier.

Got the new Klim "stealth" through the company. Very light and vented. Not sure they are selling publicly yet. I was also impressed with Kali.

The airoh aviator hands down IMO.

I bought a Mr. Jump as my third Suomy helmet and unfortunately it doesn't fit my head. The shape of the foam is completely different that previous Suomy helmets...probably good for someone with a narrow head rather than a rounder head. However, the helmet is rediculously light. I wish I could try on an Airoh helmet...its nice that we have an American distributor for those now.

Would you like to sell it and if so what size?

Love my Suomy, way lighter than my shoei and my neck love it.

I would have, but my husband started wearing it and it doesn't take many rides in Oklahoma for the red dirt to stain a helmet.

+1 on the AIROH.

The AIROHs have the same fit as an Arai.
