SUZUKI V-STROM 650XT<br />

Bell MX-9 Adventure MIPS-equipped<br />

This is actually a well-priced helmet, selling<br />

for under £200 in the UK. Point being, it’s<br />

polycarbonate construction not fiberglass or<br />

carbon. So it’s a bit heavier, but that aside the<br />

spec is all very good. I like that its MIPS-equipped,<br />

like my Moto 9, and I like that the lining can be<br />

removed and washed. And there are ready-made<br />

recesses for speakers (for communications). The<br />

aperture comfortably accommodates my Scott<br />

Prospects, so after road riding down using the<br />

visor, I can quickly convert the helmet to full offroad<br />

with goggles. So far, after a three-hour first<br />

ride I can report very good comfort and it’s pretty<br />

quiet too. And like the Scott suit, it looks smart.<br />

Boots/gloves<br />

I’m still working on my<br />

options here. We’ll sort these<br />

by the next installment.<br />
