I finally got off my ass and went riding yesterday but my goggles were pinching the hell out of my nose. I have a Shoei V-Moto helmet and Scott High-Voltage goggles.

Do you guys know of a helmet that doesn't break the bank and offers good goggle room?

Thanks for your suggestions! :cool:

I like the Moto-8 and on clearance they aren't to expensive at all.

What about a HJC SPX like the one below? They advertise it as having a large eye port and they sell for around $180.00.

Anyone have any experience with HJC?

Yeah I like them a lot. They are really comfy too.

No clue on the HJC.

I got lucky for this weekend's ride. Called my brother and he had a brand new HJC CS-X4 and he gave it to me. Hell of a guy! :cool:

It has tons of goggle room so I'm good to go for now. I'm still diggin' one of those Bell helmets in the near future though. :wink:

Here's the helmet he gave me.

Keep the Shoei and try a different goggle.Those Voltage goggles have not fit right in my past 3 helmets. My favs are the new Smith's.They fit in My VFX-DT and My Suomy with no pinched nose problems.

I'd rather have a helmet with goggle room like this HJC but, if the Shoei doesn't sell, I'll definitely give the Smith's a try.

Thanks. :cool:
