The best part about Z1R Helmets is that it can be acquired at really cheap prices. They are DOT certified which means that it will do its job if the rider crashes but this doesn’t mean it will do it better or as well as other helmets in the market today. Z1R Helmet Reviews are a bit disappointed when it comes to this helmet’s comfort and wear.

The main problem regarding this helmet according to Z1R Helmet Reviews is that the fit is unique in a rather unpleasant way. It doesn’t give enough comfort for long rides due to the awkward feeling of wearing it.

On a lighter note, this internal shape design is based on a unique head shape some people may have. This is a perfect helmet for the selected few whose head is wide at the cheeks and fairly narrow at the forehead; if this is not your head shape then this is not the helmet for you.

The ventilation of the Z1R Helmets is basic with little or no air flow on the top of the head. The visor is made out of thin and flimsy material which gives it a negative feedback from most reviews. Also, there is no distinctive clicking sound when the visor is closed. This could be the cause of the problem other Z1R Helmet Reviews point out that the visor pops open when the rider turns his head to look at the back.

The Z1R is a low cost helmet that offers mostly basic features; however the fit is made for a selected few.

Internal fit is the main problem pointed out by most Z1R Eclipse Helmet Reviews. It has one of the weirdest and strangest interior designs to date. Not that the internal shape is entirely uncomfortable, but it does give you a very awkward feel while wearing it. It is tight around the forehead area while it is very loose around the cheeks and continues to widen until it reaches the neck area which make it a strange fit. Basically this could have resulted in miscalculation of proportions.

When it comes to the paint finish of the helmet, Z1R Eclipse Helmet Reviews aren’t impressed either, the paint seems too thin and it shouts poor quality. The visor on the other hand is as it should be. It is made of thick and sturdy material, it opens and closes easily and smoothly and it is easy to remove the visor as it makes use of the removal mechanism which is becoming popular nowadays.

Since there is a huge gap in the neck area, a lot of air flows in through there which makes it difficult to gauge how effective the chin vent is. The side vents however works well as they offer a rush of air directly onto the rider’s head.

This helmet is DOT approved which is a good thing based on Z1R Eclipse Helmet Reviews because at least it does provide good safety and protection. But, in the end the price of this helmet is not worth it. It is better to spend a few extra bucks to get a better performing helmet.
