ILM Bluetooth Integrated Modular Flip up Full Face Motorcycle Helmet Sun Shield Mp3 Intercom Model 953/953 PRO

Love this helmet! The blue tooth works great. Its very comfortable and their sizing chart is spot on. Ive seen some reviews that the speakers dont have enough volume. Maybe I am lucky but mine thump! I love the internal sunshade. It can be used on hot days to leave the windshield open and still have eye protection.

Easy to use/tighter than most helmets in this size

I'm brushing the dust off this one and replacing the visor to put it back on the road.I'm a modular buff. I smoke while I ride, but prefer to ride full-faced as I have kids and a wife. Modular helmets are my only option.I've had THREE of these (returned two because of faulty Bluetooth, it still doesn't work), a couple of HJC modulars, two cheap $100 Amazon modulars (they were absolutely terrible), a scorpion exo modular (almost as bad as the $100 modulars), and currently ride with the ILM Street fighter modular (the one that flips all the way back).I tossed or returned all but this and the street fighter. I have the pro version.The shell construction is much more confidence inspiring than the flimsy super thin plastic of the $100 helmets, AND the flimsy scorpion. AND, it weighs the same!Area of vision is greater in both ILM's than any other I've tried, a little better than my old HJC's. No distortion, perfect clarity. Unobstructed field of view.This helmet has a cheeck guard clip on wind thingy that works well, and is great in the rain even though it fogs up.Rode with this from Tampa to Lynchburg VA for a funeral (through a tropical storm THE WHOLE WAY), and sunny the whole way back. 50hrs on my bike.Fog want much of an issue as long as I could crack my visor, but when it was pouring I was relying on vents. pin-locks would have been nice, but it outperformed any other helmet I've had.My biggest complaint: my neck was killing me!!!!! It took months before my shoulder stopped hurting. Now I take breaks every 2 hours. I thought it was due to the weight, but I've had 4 different helmets since then and they are all within 0.1oz of each other. I think it's the balance.The Bluetooth SUCKS. Calls DO NOT work, reception is non existent.Automatically answers EVERY call. I hated this helmet so much because of the Bluetooth that it got to the point that every annoyance started to build and fester, hell- even the color began to annoy me.And, the lack of pin-locks made my morning commute miserable on some cold mornings in Florida.Finally, I scratched the visor to the point it had to be replaced. YES!!!!!!!I ended up with the street fighter after a few of the others, couldn't afford a shark. Now that the reviews on that helmet are coming in, I'm glad I didn't buy a shark.The street fighter with a better Bluetooth solved most of my problems, but I just moved to Georgia and it does NOT do well in the cold. No chin guard wind thingy, sucks in downpours, sits too high around the neck, AND NO PIN LOCKS!So I decided to dig out this helmet and see if they had visors available, and they now have fog lenses with pin-lock holes!!!!! YES!!!!It's really not as bad of a helmet as I thought. It has it's downsides, but it's light-years ahead of other helmets in it's price range. I've ordered FIVE ILM helmets, returned 3 due to the blacktooth and Amazon reselling used stuff, and all 5 were basically the same quality. Only one QC issue between all 5 helmets. I highly recommend ILM as the ONLY option for those on a budget.I'm considering HJC's new modular that flips all the way back, but for now it looks like this is my new winter helmet. I will be removing the Bluetooth and will probably make my own and 3d print a case to fit in the original hole.Bottom line: unless you have the ability to make your own Bluetooth and print a case to fit in the old hole, DO NOT BUY THIS HELMET. BUY AN ILM, BUT NOT ANY WITH THIS VERSION OF BLACKTOOTH.Note: I tried other blackteeth, including SENA, they all sucked, pretty badly. No volume, no bass or clarity. Soo.... I tucked my tail and came back to freedconn the way I did ILM. bought one of their better versions for my street fighter helmet, and IT KICKS ASC. Great volume, CALLS WORK, great sound. Can't tell if my my helmet is windy when I turn it up lol.

excellent product material and fit.

First we had the helmets they worked well with Bluetooth. We could listen to music individually and switch to the intercom as needed and quite easily. A couple months in boyfriend's battery port got pushed in when inserting the charger. Got him a new battery through warranty no problems. Didn't need to use both helmets the rest of the year.This year, I tried to link the helmets they wouldn't do it. Got me a new battery module and still wouldn't link. They had to send two modules from the same line together. Finally linked up. However, these modules may link to phone and the other helmet to use intercom, but now we can only be linked to one to use the other. HAVE to disconnect from phone Bluetooth to beep in. Which means we both have to do it and it's unsafe when riding.Totally different from original purchase with changed controls for commands and now this problem. Customer service has been very helpful at be responsive. Just hoping they can help with this problem if these are supposed to be part of the new line.

I’ve only worn this helmet less than 10 times and the plastic visor popped out the side. It goes back together, but there is a little plastic piece, which keeps it from popping out, that must have broken away. I’ve been gentle and I’ve never dropped it. Just normal wear.The audio is fine, but I can’t figure out how to turn up the volume for phone calls, but it connects to my phone and music is fine.Not the best, but it works for the most part. I can’t open the visor completely or it’ll pop out again.
