Bell Helmets upped its game this past year with the release of its highly revised Star line. Check it out! https://www.ridersdomain.com/motorcyc...

The Bell Star line includes three new versions of the lid; the Star, the Race Star (https://www.ridersdomain.com/motorcyc...) and Pro Star (https://www.ridersdomain.com/motorcyc....

The exterior shell is made from a Tri-Matrix composite, which blends aramid, carbon fiber and fiberglass. It’s has a chin bar vent, brow vent, crown vent and a closable exhaust vent in addition to the exhaust ports just below the rear spoiler.

One of the notable innovations is the redesigned viewport, which allows for a greater field of view up and down and side to side. Bell also has a slick quick release visor system which allows for visor swaps with the press of a button on either side.

EPS foam is used for impact protection, and the comfort lining is an X-Static XT2 material that’s clinically proven to optimize bacteria and odor protection. The cheek pads and comfort liner are removable and washable too. A D-ring closure keeps the Star secure.

I’ve had the chance to wear the Star on a few occasions now, and compared to our previous custom fit Star Carbon helmet, this one’s right on par. The fit is comfortable. I’m typically an XL and this XL could be a bit more snug, either with a thicker set of cheek pads, we currently have 40mm ones installed. We could also go a size smaller helmet. The interior is plusher than the outgoing version, and the shape is definitely more aerodynamically designed.

Noise inside the helmet is about the same, which tends to be a little louder than we experience with other lids, but it’s not a deal breaker. Overall it’s a quality helmet for the price, and one that’s just as well at home on a street ride as a track day.
