Bell Vortex B-54 Helmet

Although the shot of this helmet makes the color appear in the pink range, the color is actually a brick red which contrasts nicely with the white and black elements. The paint is a matte finish that makes the color images pop on this race inspired graphic. Being part of the Bell Vortex line, this helmet is chock full of features passed down from it's big brother, Bell's Star Helmet. At a lower price point than the Star, the Vortex will still get you many of the features that make this helmet a solid choice for everyday and track riding. It is a complete package at a killer price.

Features:

  • Velocity Flow Ventilation™ system with FlowAdjust™ for maximum stability and temperature control with minimal noise and buffeting
  • Lightweight composite polycarbonate alloy shell
  • Contour cheek pads (by means of stacked foam, not hand cut)
  • Removable and washable, antibacterial/antimicrobial interior comfort liner
  • Padded Wind collar to drastically reduce wind/road noise
  • Integrated speaker pockets for audio speakers
  • ClickRelease™ for the fastest, easiest, tool-free shield swaps ever
  • NutraFog II™ superior anti-fog, anti-scratch and UV protected shield
  • Padded chin strap with D-ring closure and strap keeper
  • Five-year warranty
  • Weight: 1600g
  • Certification: Snell M2010, DOT
  • Comes with clear faceshield

I found everything about this product to be good. However the test of lifting it up in the back did not pass for me. I believe it is too long for my head shape. Other than that it was very comfortable and has lots of vents and a great look!

I upgraded from a Scorpion Exo-400, and i can tell you this helmet is a huge jump in quality and value and amount of features over the scorpion. the styling and shape of the shell are very sporty and i really like the looks. i really like how bell used the same shell as their 400$ dollar helmet and used different materials. i think its a great idea which lets you get a nice sporty looking shell design for so cheap, and im sure it will hold up comparably to the RS-1. Also, the visor change mechanism is probably one of the most simple and quickest changes out there.
my only gripe with my Vortex is the magnetic clamp to hold the strap. it doesnt feel very secure and falls off easy if you adjust your strap while riding. they put a small elastic strap next to it which im assuming you put the excess under but it doesnt really cut it.

The graphics are fantastic and the primary reason I purchased this particular helmet over others in the price range. I have fat cheeks so the fit in any helmet is usually a little tight in lower half of my face and this one is no different. However, as it breaks in, it's getting better. Air flow is very good.
My big complaint is that it's noisy... there is a ton of wind noise, even at lower speeds. Another complaint is about the face shield (which is every easy to pop off and on). You have to be careful to make sure it's fully on. Twice now I have thought it was firmly attached only to find out that it wasn't fully snapped in on one side.
Weight is probably about average for this price range and it appears pretty solidly built.

The Bell Vortex fits perfectly, and is light weight. Air Flow-Ventilation is awesome when all the vents are engaged. Best buy for just under $200, you won't find all the features on the Vortex in any other sub $200 helmet on the market. Got mine in white and added some extras to it that match my Suzuki GSX-R600 K7. Definetly worth checking out if you're looking for a great deal on a stylish helmet with all the goodies of a $500-$600 helmet.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Today Im putting my stock pipe back on because this noise bucket is making my ears bleed.forget about the wind noise that it makes , or the rear vents that everyone recommends to block off,or putting ear plugs on.As soon as you put this helmet on all you can hear is an echo of the exhaust or wind,closing the shield has no effect on reducing any noise , you can actually have a conversation with the helmet on ,it has no noise reducing effect what so ever.So I am going back to stock pipe until i get another helmet .It must be the cheap material they use to make it,that doesn't filter out any noise.Realistically for the price i shouldnt complain rite, but it is missing alot of features which didnt manner to me,that would have been fine ,if it wasnt for the noise .which makes riding a torture.Other than that it has great design,very comfortable,great fit , snell 2010 ,good venting ,keeps your head steady when tucked in,cheap price.Can be used to ride under 50 m with a silent pipe ,other than that you can risk PERMANENT HEARING LOST.

Living in FL, I needed something that could flow a bunch of air in the heat and this helmet does that and more. It's an awesome looking looking lid (got the matte black), DOT & SNELL rated, has a super fast lens changing system, and fits great...all for under $200.
Like other reviews mentioned, it is a bit on the loud side but I either have ear plugs or headphones so it doesn't really bother me.
