AGV K3 Helmet RevZilla Opinion:

The AGV K3 Helmet is one of the newer options from AGV using the updated intermediate oval fit pattern developed for the GP Tech. To us it represents good value at under $200 and you can always get the Rossi graphic that jumps out at you whic we find pretty novel. We found the AGV K3 to be reasonably light and balanced for a Polycarbonate / Resin shell. There are a level or two of helmets which become more technical as well as more of an investment from AGV as you go up, but if you are just looking for a solid everyday sport helmet the K3 could be a great option sitting along side other comparably price sport helmets.

I bought this helmet as a passenger helmet for my wife. As I only needed a casual passenger helmet, I wasn't looking for a whole lot, but after seeing it, i think this helmet is pretty awesome. The styling is really great, the build quality is good and it's very well ventilated.
The wife has a long oval head, and this helmet fits the bill. I couldn't find another helmet in a long oval anywhere near this price point. The other thing, she tried on several other helmets in XS, but in this she wears a S.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is the lightest helmet I have owned. I ordered a medium from the specs on the website but the was extremely tight so went with a large which was still snug but much more comfortable. The 3 provided airflow vents work really well to ventilate and the overall design provides a very snug and comfortable fit with good overall vision. Only nitpick would be the removable chin cover which feels like it would fall off during riding.

This helmet only has one shell size which was almost a deal breaker for me. DO NOT let that turn you away from the K3! It seems they made the shell as small as possible to span the XS-XXL size range and it's the smallest and lightest helmet I've owned.
My head measures exactly 23" so I went with a medium in this helmet. It's a VERY snug fit. The pads haven't broken in yet but there aren't any pressure points to make it uncomfortable (I have a neutral head shape).
About the noise level: This helmet has an average noise level if your head is in a casual riding position. It gets noticeably more quiet when tilted a bit downward in a more aggressive position.
About the visors: I've read some buyers mentioning the tinted visors are giving them sealing problems. I purchased a smoke visor and didn't come across this problem. It seals just as well as the stock clear.
--Overall--
The good: Fantastic quality, sleek design/aerodynamic, good ventilation, very light weight, easy visor removal.
The so-so: The chin strap is a little fussy and the button snap is on it's own mini-strap which makes tightening/loosening with gloves troublesome. And when putting the helmet on, my ears are bent down a bit but with a little wiggle it's fine.
As far as bang for the buck goes you can't beat this helmet. I'm more than happy with my K3!

Bought to replace a HJC Sy-MaxII. I was looking to give up some of the features (modular, internal sun shade) for a lighter and more comfortable lid. The K3 delivered on both counts. The lighter weight is very noticeable and much appreciated - it almost feels like wearing a ball cap. It feels well balanced, though I suppose that's partly just because it's so light. The internal shape is also a better fit on my fairly neutral head. (The Sy-MaxII was just a touch too round.)
I really like the look of the helmet. I went with the white, and it's understated but stylish. The vents are also flush and well-integrated into the overall shape of the helmet. The switches feel solid and the vents flow well. The chin strap is also nicely padded and has a little pull tab to relieve tension when you go to unthread the d-rings. Overall, the quality of the materials and the construction are very good, particularly for the price.
My only complaints are minor. There are no ear pockets, and sometimes the helmet folds down the tip of my ear when I put it on. When it does that, I have to do a bit of wiggling and poking to get things right. Even so, I can fit glasses on comfortably. Also, the snap to hold the extra chin strap is on a separate little tab hanging from the chin strap rather than just being mounted on the strap itself. That coupled with the tension-release tab can make threading the d-rings a little fussier than it ought to be.
Sizing seems to be true. At 60.5 cm I'm right between a large and an extra-large in most helmets. I went with an XL in the K3. It's got just a touch of wiggle to it, but not enough to worry about.
Overall I'm very happy with the K3, particularly for the price. To get a lighter, nattier, or higher quality helmet you would have to spend a boatload more cash, and even then I don't think you'd be gaining much.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Using the chart and my hatsize, I picked a small and its snug but I guarantee a medium would be too loose. Rather have it snug than loose. Finish appears top notch. Venting is cool on summer days.
Helmet is one of the lightest ones available on the market, which was my primary motivator in purchasing. Noticeably lighter than my old HJC helmet.
Biggest issue with these models is the outer shell only comes in one size. This means that the Small and XL helmets will look the same from the exterior, just having different amounts of foam on the inside. This causes someone who wears a small, like myself, to appear to have a larger helmet on than normal.
Pros Great Value, Fashionable, Comfortable
Cons One Size Shell

Answer: 
Nope. The Domain 2 shipped with only a Clear visor (at least for me). Look for Icon's Proshield product line in order to get a different visor color. I ordered a Reflective Gold to go along with my Red helmet and couldn't be happier with the decision.

As reviews have pointed out, one of the only weaknesses of this Icon helmet line is the somewhat tricky shield-changing process. I have faith that this is because the Proshield is engineered first and foremost to stay on in the event of a crash (sorry to go off on tangent, but it seemed related to your question).

Answer: 
I'll try to help you with the AGV GP-Tech since I own one. My bike is a Triumph Speed triple so it's not quite as an upright riding position as yours but, close and I have only a bikini fairing on the bike. First the ventilation is excellent at a 3/4 riding postion. Buffeting at speed is minimal and quite good for head checking. The helmet is reasonably quiet with a generous chin curtain and good cheeck padding. Hope this helps.

Answer: 
You are quite right. Most sport helmets are designed for maximum ventilation during an aggressive riding position on a sport bike, especially the higher end models like the AGV T-2 and GP-Tech, Bell Star, and Shoei X11 and X12. I love my T-2 and GP-Tech. However, when I sit up out of a tuck, I do notice a drastic change in air flow at the same speeds. I would highly suggest getting a helmet designed for a sport touring bike that is setup to vent during an upright riding position.
As for noise levels, the T-2 and GP-Tech are somewhat quiet, more so than most sport bike helmets of the same caliber. In comparison with the Bell star it is definitely the quieter lid. However, the Star wins out in the airflow category.
If you really want to stick with a sport bike helmet I would highly suggest either the AGV T-2, AGV GP-Tech, or the Bell Star. All of these will have phenomenal air flow and protection capabilities, Not to mention, they are extraordinarily light; my GP-Tech is under 3 lbs.

The RF-1100 in medium is pretty snugg and comfortable, while an Arai medium would squish my ears. I would like to know if the AGV K3 has a similar shape compared to the RF-1100. Also what size is similar? Thanks!

Answer: 
I don't know for certain in your exact size, but my wife fit into an RF-1100 XS, but finally purchased an AGV K3 in S. The AGV is definately more narrow in shape vs the Shoei... not quite as long as an Arai.

Answer: 
The size and fit of the Shoei and AGV shells is almost identical. Both are more of an oval shape. I have tried on several of the Shoei models and find them to fit very similarly to the AGV's that I own; T-2 and GP-Tech. So, in short, if you wear a medium in the RF-1100, than a medium in the K3 will be just fine.

On another note. If you are considering the K3, I would highly suggest you look into the T-2 line. The T-2 is based on the GP-Tech and is one of the best helmets I have ever owned. I would highly suggest reading my review on them. I have provided a link to the T-2 product page below.

Answer: 
I have both the Shoei RF-1100 and an AGV K3. I wear a small in both. The K3 will "squish your ears" just as an Arai does. Keep in mind the relief that the RF-1100 in the cheek pads where your ears sit in the helmet. That makes the Shoei not pinch or "squish" the ears. The shape of the K3 is similar to the RF-1100. A medium should be your size, however, I would strongly suggest measuring your head if you don't know your size. I know that my head is at 22 inches and this has helped me immensly with choosing the correct fitting size. I wear a small in just about every manufacturer but, I wear a medium in Shark.
