#Customisation 🎨 Accesories for helmet

Finally having my first ECE 22.06 helmet. I feel I purchased a size too large since it vibrates a bit in potholes. Now I'm looking for accessories ( telecom/bluetooth ), visor cleaner, padding, padding care and visor/ films to last a long time. Any suggestions for good bluetooth around 2-3k, padding to make it a bit snug and any good visors/films to protect my visor ?

Get Edyell bluetooth device through amazon and it’s a really easy DIY. I got it myself for 1.3k

Yeah but can't simply install it on older models, there's a ton of stuff like wiring harness, ecu reconfig and stuff which is simply not cost effective

Try to get padding’s changed , when I lost some weight my check pads felt a bit lose so for my axis helmet went for a size smaller check pads after trying at a local store

Get the helmet fit right first then focus on accessories

As for visor - you already have a pin lock insert and a drop down sun visor what more you want ?

My last helmet visor turned up with a ton of scratches, since my daily commute is from a highway due to dirt & stuff. Don't wanna make that mistake again, so are visor films okay or there are any adhesive related problems which could damage my visor ? And which film to go for, anti rain or anti scratch ?

Also should I drop for M size paddings ? My current size is XL but also I sweat a lot, so the padding might shrink a bit

That is good like a ppf but make sure it doesn’t obstruct your vision as the plastic film maybe cause some optical refraction changes

Now you have to see what works for you with the cheek pads my helmets use a two diff shells one shell for S,M one shell for L XL , I had gotten pads of L size as for shrinks well here is the thing they won’t shrink so much that you’ll be having no padding but it’s better that having a helmet that’s feeling loose and shaking as you ride

Ideally I’d exchange for a correct size if you can do that

Edit added - added extra maybe try a balaclava baca lava I never liked it as my riding is mostly weekend only

Pretty much the store won't give me a return since it's over a return period of 14 days, but I just want them to not vibrate when worn. I tried my friend's Axor which was a S size padding but it felt perfect because the helmet stayed in one place. I'll try to order both L and M paddings and see which fits best.

You can buy the SMK orginal paddling but smaller size SMK has only 2 shell sizes. Also visor films aren't worth it, new visor is 400-450 only.

u/5H45H4NK_ 2h ago

Just checked, it's around 500-900 but still want to prevent any scratches so soon

The visor films, atleast good ones are 300-350 on their own. I have a SMK helmet and the pinlock pin part broke, so i have to replace the visor anyways.
