looking for a helmet with built in sun visor on the inside. Have found HJC has some. any other brands? Dont want a modular or a half. Has to be a full face. any shops or specific helmets recomended?
 
Check the Scorpion EXO-1000. I just received mine this afternoon.

-int15
 
Shark sell them as well.
I have had one new this season and its great. Dont have the problem of the sun glasses digging in after an all day ride.
 
Shuberth S1, S1 Pro, R1 and S2 all are full face and have built in visors. They are great helmets but are deff not cheap

Love the R1 i have now and will probably get another Shuberth when it is time to replace it.
 
I have a Scorpion EXO 1000 and find that the built in visor is nowhere as effective as a good pair of sunglasses in bright sunshine. I inquired about a darker tint however not available. Not having to change visors is very handy however.
 
HJC IS-16

I have one and recommend it.

**edit**

The IS's smoked OEM internal sun shield can be replaced with an amber shield for dark/rainy days.

I have a cxk one, and I hate it. I was my first helmet and when I hit strong bumps the visor would half fall, and block my line I sight. I quickly replaced it.

I have Scorpio EXO 1100. Lighter than the 1000 because ECE not SNELL. Good snug fit for rounder heads.

As i posted earlier..... $124 and the internal flip down replacements are on sale too. I have the 1000 and the switched the outer to the reflective chrome and can ride into the sun for hours if need be. I have the light smoke on the internal and have no issues. The internal never falls down and the lever is easy to locate and actuate. Both lenses are easy to remove and replace.

If you are going to order from there PM me i wish to get a few things and we can combine shipping and duty.
 
Hey Vik, when Vadym was looking for his new helmet he decided to get the Scorpion EXO 400, but the one model up (I think around $225 plus tax) EXO 500 had the built in visor. Not sure on the price difference between the EXO 500 and the 1000 that many people have been mentioning, but it may be worth it to look at the 500.
 
I purchased the HJC IS-33 and it's pretty good although it's my first helmet so I wasn't sure what to expect.

I don't know if the helmet just isn't the right size or shape for my head but I find that I have to push the helmet forward in order for the visor to come down to my nose. Otherwise it only seems to come down and cut my vision in half horizontally.

I love the convenience of the built in visor as I also wear prescription glasses and changing out between them and my prescription shades can be a pain but I'll take more time with the fit on my next helmet.

Same here... I have both but never used the amber one... I guess it would be good for night driving?
