I like the fact that with the chrome stickers, when light is on it.. the whole sticker lights up due to the chrome shiny look, so it will do for now.

AGV K-3 SV and Shoei GT Air. The AGV is loud. It's loud. Size M-S, meaning medium, but in the small shell size. The Shoei is quiet and great. Both have drop down sun visors, which I don't use. Drop down visors don't block out enough of the sun, in my opinion, so I change the visor on each of them depending on day/night use. IF you're going to buy a helmet and use the drop down sun visor DO not buy the AGV because that drop down sun visor distorts the light and your view. The Shoei on the other hand is very clear and true. I have heard that Schuberth drop down visors are also of good quality. Again, though, there's no replacement for a full mirror visor IMO.

Both also have the Sena S20 bluetooth communicator. They work well. Speakers have very tinny sound, despite all the reviews of better speakers for this model. I've adjusted the equalizers on my devices and when I put full bass it's quite distorted. Whenever I glance over to my $500 bluetooth devices I picture a tin can. Nevertheless they work well for voice.
