Simpson Mod Bandit | Before You Buy 

Yo what’s up brother love the channel and all the content but when are we going to see another trip… 😂😂 love watching you ride and spend time with your old boy too it’s awesome mate peace and love from Gold Coast Australia ✌️🤙

XD at work but got 1h to spare so having my coffee ☕ with some biscuits 🍪 while watching this then Had a meeting at 10 and now waiting to start my shift at 12 And then later ofc after work i go to Friday Night Magic ✨

I chugged a beer everytime you said “crushing miles”. And let me tell ya……hold on I gotta pee…. I’m pretty ahitced. 🥴👍

They look good, The most comfortable helmet I've ever owned, The Features are good, But the build quality is just Meh, My first one broke. Wont latch closed. The internal visor stopped working, The Little red tag that clips the chin strap up so it stops flapping in the breeze fell off, The liner fell out, The glue come off, Simpson warranty is pretty much non existent. I dont know if i just got a dud? But man they are just so comfy, And i also think they are a fair amount over priced considering

Thanks for the honest review! I appreciate knowing its a loud helmet, been looking at them recently

1:41 WHERE IS THAT? just give me a road please

Love your content looking at getting a carbon mod bandit i seem to be the same as you as far as sizing my shoei RF14 I'm a medium same with my bell race star flex i also have the outlaw bandit in a medium, lot of youtube reviews are saying to go down a size i measure 56 3/4 head size what do you think?

Comparison to shoei neotech ?

I recently just got the carbon fiber mod bandit, and find it much lighter and way quieter than both my ghosts and my outlaw. Great video man!!

You know I've got a helmet problem. My helmet collection is out of control. I thought i could live with a fullface as my daily, but as you pointed out, quick gas stops are easier when you don't have to take off your helmet to clearly see how much gas is in the tank. (Personal pet peeve, gas stations that don't have paper towels to wipe spilled gas off of tank, suck.) Ive also found that taking off your helmet at gas stops seems to be an unofficial welcome mat for every person that wants to tell you about the Honda V45 their Uncle who went to prison sold them and only needs the carburetor cleaned out and do i know how to work on Hondas and theyre really quitting heroin this time and look at this cool tattoo on their asscheek they got at a party last night, and what do all those decals on your lunch cooler strapped to your bike mean, ...oh youre going to work, nightshift, that must suck, do you make a lot of money, are they hiring, and do i know anyone who wants to buy some Oxytocin...its much easier to flip up the modular, pump gas and leave. And there was the case in Norwood, Ohio, where a guy entered a store with his helmet on, and the clerk shot him thinking he was there to rob them . I had a Schubert modular because it's supposed to be the quietest helmet on the planet...if you have the perfect European shaped head. I don't and i tried, but it moved around especially with the weight of the Gopro on it and i literally almost left it in the garbage can at Iron Pony in Columbus after the Block Party trip. (A helmet that doesn't give you headaches at high speed is crucial. ) I have a couple full faces, but i really like having a modular. I finally bought a Shoei Neotec after trying one on at Cycle Gear. They were having a huge sale and trying to move the Neotec2's in preparation for the 3's. So far so good. I really wanted to try on a Simpson Modular but i couldn't find any in stock in stores within a 200 mile radius and theres such a difference in helmet fit, i recommend that everyone try on their helmets. (HJC sizing is much different than other brands. And the Harley helmets are HJC, and i find them uncomfortable just trying them on.) I am excited about the Carbon Outlaw Bandit that Simpson just came out with...did i mention i have a helmet problem?

I got my first Mod Bandit last year. 12 hours later, it did its job when I got ran over after work. I was beat to hell, but my head was safe. Went a week later and got another. My first is still hanging up in my house.

Right on brother! I’ve worn an Outlaw Bandit for many years, about eight months ago bought the Modular an can honestly say I love the ability to get a little reprieve from the heat at times and also at every fuel stop. But I do find myself going back to the Outlaw depending on my mood. Great content as always brother 🤟

My helmet used to be modular But after dropping it so much ain't working anymore XD

Very jellllly I wasnt able to get a 2023 white ST, i ended up with a 24 vivid black after some interesting private sales that didnt work out :(

I rock the Carbon Mod Bandit and absolutely love it. No hot spots. No more head aches and doesnt bother my neck on long rides. Ill buy another for sure. Thanks for the great content and reviews. ML&R

What a coincidence you did this video. Literally just bought a Carbon Mod Bandit from Deadbeat Customs last night. I'm excited to see what it has to offer, it's been on my list for a while.

Ironically I'm not a Dyna bro but I'm a Scout bro which is basically Indian's Dyna lol. 11" bar rise, Mod Bandit, Memphis Shades Road Warrior fairing, hand guards, bar bag, old school Vans, and chain wallet, yup, it's the Dyna bro setup. No shame.

As always gracias buddy for the advises! I’ll keep it on with the Simpson.👊🏼👊🏼

Hey, like your videos, but just curious, why don't you show your face?

lol don’t knock the alpine stars air bag. Currently rock the alpine stars tech air 3 and tech air 5 depending on weather/season. Highly recommend.

The only gripe i've ever had with this helmet is that the interior visor components seem to brake down over time and the inside visor keeps dropping down. this wasn't until about 2-3 years of use but I still love this helmet and just ordered another in carbon fiber

Excellent honest review! I never wear a helmet but I've been considering it. I saw your video and went to Simpson/Holley website and the hellfire was on sale so I couldn't pass it up. I've been wearing it and am very pleased and obviously much safer. Well done.

Digging the channel and reviews. Just wondering, in terms of loudness, does the noise interfere with your hearing coms at speed? Love the PMA. Ride safe and far my man. 🤙🏽🤙🏽

I’ve always run modular helmets as a daily commuter. It gets hot down here in Houston so being able to lift the chin up for some air is great lol. I’m also a lazy bones, so I got the Sena Outrus R helmet that comes pre equipped with the speakers lol. This Simpson one looks cool though, may or may not try one out in the future

You make good points. I ride an Electraglide and a 2001 FXDX so im fortunate enough to have the best of both worlds. Hardest part is deciding which one to ride! Keep putting out the great content! ML&R

Thanks for your honesty 🙏

Just got mine and wore it out over the weekend. My only sort of complaint is I’m not too big of a fan on the chin guard mesh thing. Is there a way to remove that?

I love the style of the helmet , but i find its overall alot bigger than my Bell Qualifier dlx which i love for the price point especially with transition shield , but i have to give yhe Simpson another look.

Don't sleep on the adjustable vents in the chin like I did for months, completely forgot I could

Serious question, what makes that com setup better than a similarly priced Cardo? When Cardo is the standard and they meshwith Sena.

I got the Iridium shield for my Mod, but it is too dark come night time. Is the Mirror shield lighter tinted than the iridium?

I have the bobblehead look, but Simpsons are the best fitting helmet for my head shape.

Nice job, great review! Gameranx style❤

Got to say the bobble head look is my only gripe with mine (I’m also short so it’s even more pronounced) but other than that amazing lid!

I bought my first Mod Bandit in 2020. Like your dad it was the only fullface helmet that got me to wear it as much if not more than my half helmet. In 2021 I was coming home from dinner with some friends, I was going 80 on the freeway and I was hit by a driver that was high on meth. I flew a couple hundred feet in the air before landing on my head and then going head over heels several times, smashing my head into the ground each time. I finally ended up laying on my back. I popped open the chin bar and started taking a physical assessment of my body. End result, two broken legs, two broken hands and wrists and a broken vertebrae in the middle of my back. But my head and face had no damage. Once I was ready to start riding again the first thing I did was go buy a new Mod Bandit. I figured that I had crashed test dummied that bitch so I will stick with it. Plus it just looks so damn good.

Thanks, that FXR duude... 9:37

I’ll stick to my Shoei

is it heavier?

Great review 🤙🏼

is it noisy inside?

What ear plugs do you run?

Nice review, thanks!

The Judge logo on the helmet 😍

Love my Mod Bandit and Ghost Bandit, not a big fan of my Speed Bandit. Has a bad spot on top of my head that hurts like hell after about 30 minutes. Great video, sent to my brother so he can a better decision.

The mod bandit is great for around town low speed. But after 50 it’s loud and just outright stupid. This helmet is nothing short of overpriced. As someone who also puts down the miles this is not the helmet I would choose for the long haul and even short rides. I use my outlaw far more often because the mod bandit is just incredibly cheaply made in my opinion. Sure you get that cool Simpson look. But may as well just go without a helmet if your concern is noise. I get less irritation without this on then with it. My honest opinion is it’s garbage.

I bought a small and it's the best I've ever worn. Had a scorpion that almost wrecked me and I tossed across the road afterwards

Dyna Bro lmao who would call themselves that lol

Great vid. Thanks for the honesty. 👍🏾

Bobble head, bro you got bobble head bad, bad good the size of that helmet it almost reaches from shoulder to shoulder
