Sounds like it's time for a follow up video ;). Sooooo, I've been using it quite a while now, mostly for teaching, and for the requirements I had, it's performed well for the price. I use the flip up/down mechanism quite a lot when I wear it, and I had concerns about it lasting long, but it's held up thus far. Seals will in the rain, and I do ride in the heavy rain. I've dropped it a few times and it hasn't cracked. Let me know which one you decide upon!
Admittedly, this is not my best video, and my camera died without me noticing! Either way, I'll be installing this on my second helmet, so stay tuned for a much better explanation.
I have not personally used the Storm SV, but based on the photos and videos I've looked at, it seems to be a more budget option compared to the Atom SV. But I wonder if it's market specific, or discontinued because it's not on the MT Helmets website.
Well, I can't say that I ride at 150km/h often :), but I can say it gets pretty noisy at almost any speed over 60km/h. Not as noisy as my modular helmet. Either way, I don't ride without earplugs. Thanks for the question!
Thanks for stopping by and watching the UNBOXING video, leaving a comment, and helping the algorithm! Stay tuned for an update video coming soon with all the answered you desire.
Just start using the i70 and see that it's quite snug fit inside... for how long that the interior pads gonna shape better fit with my head (cheek) ???
Typically I'd say it takes a few rides to get used to a helmet and break it in. Helmets definitely should be snug, but if it's leaving a deep creases on your forehead, it could be a size to small. Maybe I'll make a helmet fitting video!

An excellent idea! In the meantime, you can check out the Pinlock video I just uploaded, which includes some viz of the Atom with the smoked visor. Cheers!
I would say it is an intermediate oval, with a slight bias to long oval, just because I feel some pressure on my sides, especially with the front closed. But still pretty plush for a budget helmet. I appreciate the question!!!
It's loud. Not sure if all modular helmets are the same, but this is much louder that my full face helmet, which I think is also loud. However, it depends what and how you're riding. If you're more upright, like on a cruiser, it's not nearly as bad as when you're tilted forward, like on a sport bike, where it produces a whistling noise. But! it IS really comfortable. For the price, and for my purpose, it's tolerable.
bought the same helmet in white this year, really like it. great ventilation, great visibility. got the gold RST visor. great in sun and cloud. same problem with the scratching. have a bell helmet with a gold visor and not an issue for 2 years. Get the Pinlock..i resisted and then on a rainy day i was almost blind.
I was considering the gold visor as well! Which bell helmet do you have? Yes, pretty disappointing that the visor scratches quite easily. Although, I popped in the new visor about 6 months ago, and it's holding up much better than the first one, which only got about 3-4000km of riding! We'll see how this one holds up.
@@motoarkyne its a Bullitt in blue sparkle with the gold bubble shield. really love it, super comfortable, very quiet, but it has no ventilation for the summer months. will be using it in the fall again.
Yes. Probably a 15-20% reduction. Doesn't sound like much, but anything helps. It certainly helps eliminate the wind blast going up the front of your helmet, which I appreciate.
Thanks for the question! I ordered it from GPBikes.com. You'll want to wait for one of their tax free sales, and I believe at the time the helmet was on sale itself. Ride Safe!
I actually picked up a Sena 50C headset some time after making this video. That video will go up eventually, and I'll demonstrate how I installed it. To summarize, I used the cavity in the back of the helmet for excess cable, and mounted the headphones and mouth piece in the cavities carved in the helmet. They're not an absolute perfect fit, but the carve outs are welcomed. Getting the side mount was the most challenging part. Thanks for watching and for your comment! Ride safe.
Hi Mark! Installation was easy once I figured out the trick to the expansion collar. You can watch the installation here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I1B3ZWwugKo.html&t I can say they work relatively well, and I like that they double as lever guards. I have no real complaints. As for other options, the Svart has handlebars, so there could be something from barkbusters, acerbis, etc that are more wraparound and offer more protection.
Hi. Thanks for the vid. Was looking for the chin curtain part number but was a bit hard to see. Would you happen to have it handy? Also Cdn so am considering Fortnite or GP bikes
Happy holidays! I picked it up from fortnine. Check it here fortnine.ca/en/hjc-i10-chin-curtain?. Looks like the part number is HFP51E3000100. Thanks for watching, and thanks for the question!
That was kewl. The I-70 has more options (sun shield) but weighs less. The I-70 looks sleeker on your head. I purchased the I-10 about the same time as you. It was used for a couple weeks and now I've shelved it. I have a 15 helmet collection. I now use the Daytona 3/4 helmet as my main helmet and the Sistema II as my secondary helmet. The Sistema II is about the same in comfort/quietness as the RPHA helmet, the RPHA winning with a slightly better interior feel.Thanks for the review.
pretty good video review! btw. there are 2 small notches from beneath the lever protector, you can adjust the distance of the handguard from the lever with those. ;)
You are misleading your viewers. It's not Evo set, it's advanced set. Correct the title of your review. In fact you are describing Oxford Evo model and how it works but showing us Oxford advanced.
Hi! Thanks for pointing that out. And here I was under the impression I had ordered the EVOs. I'm not misleading anyone, it's an honest mistake. I'll make the correction in the title. As far as the function, I'm literally reading the paper that come with the product, so if that's incorrect, that's on Oxford.
Hey Hey. Thanks for the comment. I got the visor at The Visor Shop. It's a place in Ireland! www.thevisorshop.com/en/HJC-HJ-31-Pinlock-Ready-Visor-Fits-I70-and-I10/m-24933.aspx
Goo Gone for removing the old glue. Don't know if you have one, but an air compressor is great for removing and putting grips on. WD-40 is great addition for sliding grips on as it is slick but dries quick and leaves the grip tight. Yeah, I know, everyone wants to give advice..... Anyhoo, you did good for first time. Hope these help you to extend your riding season a bit.....
No idea about modulated heat before. I ride year round, but have only used my heated grips twice in my 50+ years of riding. Ok, so I live in the sunny south. I can totally understand all the extras needed for the far north. A man that actually reads instructions? Grips appear nice in the video. Now to see how they perform and feel. I've had grips before that look good but felt bad. Good presentation.
Yes you do know where Amazon go theirs...C.....H.....I......Bingo....... I bought a cover 30 years ago and it is still in great shape......mostly because I've only used it twice. Haha, Was thinking about it earlier today, to use on my new scooter. Referring to one of your older videos, I purchased the HJC I-10. Great helmet...EXCEPT it is loud. I know it isn't the same for everyone or different bikes. I used it on a Kymco AK550 and it was deafening. Really. It was worse than my 3/4 Daytona helmet. I was about to purchase the RPHA 90S and someone recommended the Sedici Sistema II. Works great. But the ringing in my ears can't be removed, just kept from getting worse. Anyhoo, good video.
Glad you're liking the vids! In my follow up video, I pointed out that it was indeed loud. It's not as bad a other helmets I have, but it's about par for a sport helmet. It IS a nice helmet though. Cheers!
Just got my I10 Maze in white from GP Bikes as well. Great helmet, love the Maze graphic. Replaced my 5year old shoei quest. This is a great helmet for $239 - excellent bang for buck. Solid unboxing vid and I had Same experience. The pockets for the comm system also fit my Cardo Freecom (saves buying proprietary comm system) Actually returned the Scorpion gt930 because with the comm speakers in place it put too much pressure on the ears.
Thank you for your comment! This is great information. I have been looking into the Sena camera/comm system, so it's nice to know the space in there is indeed roomy, and compatible with Cardo as well. I appreciate the support.
2nd viewer, 1st commenter. Oh yeah, those are $$$$. I appreciate the review of those pricey gloves, but I stop looking around the $40 (US) price. Having said that, I still like to look and see the review of products beyond my budget. Thanks for the post.
