Testimonials
Ian C.
After riding over 1500 miles, Ian praises the X-903 Ultra Carbon for its comfort and quietness. The visor and inner pads are tool-free removable, and the built-in sun visor is especially convenient for long-distance rides.
Brent
Much better than my previous helmet which was a HJC RPHA 70. The HJC was a bit lighter but the X-lite beats it in every other category. X-lite only has 2 vents- one in front below the visor and one top center but they flow plenty of air to keep my head from melting in the 100+ degree west Texas summer heat. The drop down sun visor is adjustable not just one position down and it drops down lower than the HJC which is nice. Magnetic latches make visor removal extremely quick and easy and one pinlock antifog insert is included. The interior liner and pads are comfortable and secure making it a great place for my head to live during extended trips. Riding a KTM Duke 890 the helmet was average to a little above average quiet and no neck twisting buffeting even when stuck behind big trucks on the interstate. I was nervous to purchase this helmet because I have zero previous experience with X-lite or Nolan products but I am glad I did.
Kelvin
Kelvin notes that the X-552 Ultra Carbon is quieter and more comfortable than before. It offers great visibility, a stable peak, and adjustable padding that makes it an excellent choice for enduro riding.
