LS2 Storm Helmet Review | Great Looks but Worth Buying?

I recently bought a new LS2 Storm in the Faster colour scheme, after using it quite a bit in a lot of mixed weather - and lots of questions on the helmet, I've put together this review. The only thing I would say this review is missing is long term durability over many miles and years, as I haven't done that yet, but I'll keep everyone up to date on Instagram and such :)

What about you? Would you buy an LS2? What helmet should I try next?

[coughlanstephen]

Using an LS2 Storm myself or FF800 as it's also called. Very comfortable and excellent quality for its cost.

Love the detail on the review. You cracked me up with the chamfered vs fillet bit. :)

I just bought this in pink colour way and love it. Your review was very informative thank u

I never thought I would see 30c in Ireland, but last summer I was in Connemara in full leathers when it hit 31c. And so began my journey into the world of mesh jackets.

I just bought one online and was looking for reviews on this helmet. Well, I stumbled on to your review.
I reaslly enjoyed your review on this helmet and think I will subscribe to your channel.

That’s the helmet I’m using about 18 months and it’s a great helmet. Bit awkward for GoPro adapting but it’s done me a great bit of business for €135 with pinlock, for the Matte Black. The tab for the visor still works perfectly, The strap release red tab gets frayed but still works the same. Highly recommended.

Wind noise at 100+kph is the largest deciding factor for me. Unfortunately it's hard to tell unless you try each one at those speeds and helmet retailers won't allow that!

[ATEVENUS]

the detaiLed review of the visor VERY MUCH HELPED with our decisions. THANK YOU ❤❤❤❤😊

[deeweeuavp]

Grand lid had one for a while. Bought a AGV K5 lid for Bandit. And vent clip disintegrated after a wet weather spin. I owned an Arai Roberts Blue RR yrs ago, needed ear plugs for riding! Expensive but best lid I've ever owned.

I use this helmet in the color scheme racer matt blue for about one year and like it a lot.
The only thing I don´t like very much is in the winter always enter lot of cold air from the front vent even when it is closed.
I do motovlogging and with the action cam on the chin is not easy open the visor, the solution I gonna try is to move the cam a little bit down.
Great review I agree you in everything

[thetwowheeledintrovert]

Great review, so many outlets (resellers or paid promoters) simply aren’t talking about ECE 22.06, rather they just seem intent on flogging off their current stock with ECE 22.05 certification. If you’re not familiar with the difference between 05 and 06, it’s worth having a read of the testing scenarios.

[Viper-MotoVlogger]

Seems like a very nice helmet. I personally like the weight and Snell approval of the Shoei helmets.

[khervinjaycolita]

Got the Titanium color, it's so dope. I'm the kind of guy that don't like attention, so my helmets are low key in color. hehe... Got more excited to use it after watching your review. just waiting for the com to arrive. Thanks...

[lukelane]

Great review mate. 👍 I love Loud Colours in helmets 😀the CBF would look class in them colour, one problem is the amount of road crap on our roads you'd need to clean every other day, the black is defo easier to keep

[HippoDrones]

Great review Michael. I have an LS2 Subverter MX lid, and that crashed very well, no headaches even after crashing it on tarmac.

[Banditmanuk]

Looks a decent quality helmet for the price. I tend to keep buying Shoei because they are so comfortable but they've annoyed me by now linking up with a dedicated Sena integrated coms. With the Sena prep it's difficult to fit my Cardo Packtalk Bold in the regular place.

[musk-eteer]

got my LS2 Assault in battleship grey, it was slightly tight at first but now it's perfect

[lunar-firefly]

I tried LS2 helmets back when I was just starting to figure out motorcycle gear. The ones I got either gave me bad headaches after a bit, or fell apart. Finally settled on a Scorpion R420. Then got a Scorpion ST1400 Carbon Fiber, and I upgraded to an Scorpion EXO R1. I am absolutely in LOVE with this helmet. Even with the gopro mount on the front, it doesn't get drag from higher winds. It is, hands down, my favorite helmet and I plan to stick with this design for a long time to come. Yeah its at a higher price point, but I'd say as someone who rides year around, this is the best helmet I have ever owned. It comes with a clear visor, and shaded, and both are pinlock ready. AND it comes with a pinlock. Its well worth the price. If you've not checked this helmet out, I highly recommend it. It's also very light even though its not carbon fiber. I am so impressed by the quality and design.

I wish Cycle Gear had LS2's my size when I was shopping for a helmet, I am saving for a modular to get before summer...if the apocalypse doesn't happen.
