What's this?

AGV K-3 SV Helmet

The AGV K3 SV Helmet builds on AGV's extensive experience in designing the Pista GP and Corsa helmets as well as the legacy of the original K3 helmet. An aerodynamic shell shape is optimized for stability and aggressive aesthetics and features an integrated, compact rear spoiler to reduce turbulence. The narrow chin bar is streamlined to help the helmet cut through the wind at high speeds, further increasing stability.

The AGV K3 SV helmet incorporates a drop-down sun visor, making the helmet a tour de force, aggressive street or touring helmet. The K3 is also communication-ready and features speaker pocket cut outs to minimize discomfort caused by Bluetooth speakers pressing into your ears. The AGV K-3 SV Helmet is an excellent choice for any rider who values sophisticated, modern design in a safe and feature-rich package.

Features:

  • HIR-TH (High Resistance Thermoplastic Resin) shell construction
  • 2 shell sizes
  • 4 EPS sizes optimized using the FEM (Finite Elements Analysis) system
  • Ventilation system was designed and optimized in a wind tunnel
  • 4 front vents (3 at the forehead and one on the chin guard) and 2 rear extractors vents
  • XQRS (X-tra Quick Release System) visor mechanism for tool-free removal and replacement of the faceshield in seconds
  • Faceshield mechanism features PVS (Perimetrical Visor Seal) for improved seal and protection against drafts and wind noise
  • GT2 scratch-resistant, anti-fog polycarbonate visor with 100% protection from UV rays
  • GT2 face shield has improved peripheral vision thanks to the specially-shaped profile of the aperture
  • Integrated drop-down Sun Visor (ISV) is scratch-resistant and can be replaced easily and without special tools
  • Removable breath deflector
  • Removable windproof chin strap protection
  • Fully removable and washable 3D inner liner and cheek pads are sanitized and made from Dry-Comfort fabrics

Great look, open air flow, nice features, good everyday.
This is my second helmet after being bike only for 3 years now. My first helmet was $50 more then this one. In comparison they fit rather differently. This one is easy to take on and off, my first felt squished taking on and off. Even though this one goes on and off easier it feels snugger on my face in cheeks but in a comfortable way. There is cut out where your ears go and that provides a lot of comfort as i often ride with headphones. There is also wind that goes between my ears which is a plus since i live in Florida and it is always hot. The front has a tab that vents the sheild slightly which provides more airflow but also works great as a defogger. Chemical coats wear off eventually so its nice there is a second system to defogg. I wish it had Pin Lock but this is a nice touch. It bobbles very little at high speeds but with all the airflow it is louder but i expect that and do not mind. The internal sun visors are decent. I have seen complaints about them not being dark enough but if you get the iridium ones it works fine. Wont block all the sun but what will. They have nice coverage and easy to access. The look is sharp and has nice cuts to helpit with comfort as well around the neck. The inner linning stays dry and is very soft. Over all i am thrilled with this helmet. I ride everyday rain or shine, light or dark. It is very versitile for my bike only needs.

AMAZING HELMET
This is my fourth helmet, the other three I either grew out of, or didn't like the way they fit. I wear a size small helmet, and this fits absolutely PERFECT. I cannot give enough thanks to AGV for coming out with this helmet, I'm a female rider so it was important to me to find a helmet that was lightweight, and not obviously feminine (aka the silly butterflies and flowers on ALLLLL of the women's helmets in any brand)... The hawksbill makes the side view of the helmet gorgeous. The acoustics within the helmet (the wind noise/ ability to hear out of a Bluetooth) are phenomenal. I tested the helmet at high speeds, and my head doesn't blow all over the place like my previous helmet. The drop-down visor could be a bit darker, but that's it.

Premium helmet without the premium price tag--A great mid-level helmet
My last helmet was a bargain bin Fulmer (which I actually loved), but I took a lil spill and needed a new one. Since I recently upgraded from a CBR250 to a 600RR, I felt I needed to upgrade to a more premium lid and this helmet fits the bill perfectly.

When I measured my head, I was 22 inches, which according to the size chart was a medium-large, but when I tried it on, it felt too loose, so I swapped it for a medium small and it fits me super snug (in fact, I'm actually embarrassed at how loose my old helmet must have been!#. It takes me a little finagling to get my glasses in, but they don't press into my head or bow like they do in some helmets. Plus, I think that's mostly because I have very thin frames with a lot of bend to them.

The helmet is very light, feels very solid, and I really like the "hawks bill" style. Coming from a sub $100 helmet to this one, I really like the extra features that make it feel more premium, such as the chin curtain #which really helps keep the air in/out), the "city"/cracked visor position, the quick change mech for swapping lenses, and the removable liner. Every helmet I saw all these features on was $300+! I also like that it is pre-cut for adding a com system, as that's something I plan to do eventually.

The lens is very clear and good with not fogging; however, THE INTERNAL VISOR FOGS UP A LOT AND IF YOU HAVE GLASSES THEY WILL FOG UP EASILY IF THE MAIN SHIELD IS ALL THE WAY DOWN! The saving grace is the city position for the front visor, which allowed me to manage the condensation on the sun visor and my glasses, although this was not really possible at low speeds.

Best helmet under $500
Went from a Shoei Qwest to this helmet. The Qwest has more visor positions, and that's about it. This helmet flows better, it's more aerodynamic, it's quieter, and it's nearly half the cost. My biggest question buying this helmet was whether I'd be satisfied with the drop down sun visor instead of a smoked shield. I found the drop down visor didn't come low enough for upright riding without being annoying so I got a smoked shield which I prefer the looks of anyway.

I liked this helmet so much I bought another for a friend!

Great helmet, Great Value
I purchased this helmet partly because it looks great and second, the airflow configurations. The airflow is great, here in FL it gets very hot mid-day and this helmet keeps my head dry, and cool which is a godsend with 90F++ temps with high humidity. The anti-fog visor works great, i have not had any problems with the visor fogging up(Drove through a few heavy T-storms, and afternoon showers). A con is while it is wet outside the mouth vent does shoot rain into your face.
Also while the visor does not fog up, the seal around the visor does lets a bit of water in.
This helmet is very loud, no way around it. Wear your ear plug, I have had issues with the helmet whistling, but it does go away eventually, not really that annoying in my opinion.
Sizing, I usually wear a medium, but the Med-L fits me perfectly, it is nice and comfy.

First Helmet, Impressed!
I just recently started riding about 2 months ago, and knew only as much about helmets as I cared to watch on Revzilla (which was a fair amount, honestly) So I tried this thing on and it fit LIKE A GLOVE. Seriously, I went for a trip 2 weeks after purchasing and 4 hours into the trip and no where on my head was it sore. Amazing! The airflow is pretty great as well, considering I have longish thick hair and could feel movement on top of my head. The "City Cruising" setting to keep the visor slightly open isn't the easiest to operate with gloves on, but its definitely doable. The top airflow controls on the sides are pretty much impossible to operate while riding, so make sure you have em where you want em, the mouth and center-top are easy to adjust though. Not the quietest helmet, but I have yet to ride on the highway with the vents closed yet. The internal sun visor is a nice option, only the one it came with wasn't that dark at all, I wish it was a couple shades darker to really block the sun, it just takes the edge off really.

The only complaint I have isn't about the helmet itself, it's about the cost of replacement visors, they are 50-70 bucks! But this helmet does have the option of getting pinlock visor inserts (even though the visor it comes with isn't pinlock compatible).

All in all, love this helmet, just wish the visors weren't so pricey.

Great helmet, especially for the price.
First off, let me start by saying how surprisingly quiet this helmet is. I ride an FZ-07 so wind is always a big issue, but even with all the vents open, I can comfortably ride at highway speeds with no earplugs. On one occasion I got up in the 100mph range (no comment on whether or not this was on the street...) and even then, the wind noise was manageable, but certainly loud.
Others have mentioned that the diagonal vents aren't usable with gloves, but I beg to differ. As long as you pull them at the right angle, you can get them to open/close while riding, though it can be a bit tricky.
The only complaint I have with this helmet is the weight. But that doesn't really surprise me, considering how much cheaper it is than, say, a Corsa or a Pista. I've certainly worn heavier.
All in all, this is a great mid-range helmet. If you're looking for something better than the really cheap stuff, but you don't want to fork over the cash for a premium helmet, I would wholeheartedly recommend the K3 SV.

Sporty with ++ Weight and Vision
Ownership:
6 months.

Relative Specification:
My Int. Oval Circumference is 22.5 in or 57.15 cm, and MS (medium-small) size at 57 cm fits me perfectly.

The two biggest ups for the AGV K3 SV are its feather weight and wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide field of vision. I wear this as a commuter and it feels as light at sunup as it does at sundown. The pads and lining are magic. It's one of the most comfortable helmets I've worn. It wicks sweat easy in 90 degree heat.

The only drawback is when you're riding urban stop-and-go traffic. The vents are excellent at speed, quiet and cooling, with three crown vents that you can toggle, but there's little flow when you're positioned almost upright because of the tiny mouth vent. The visor and shade will fog up as a consequence, but will also clear quickly.

I recommend the AGV K3 SV to safety conscious beginners riding sporties. It's a great value for commuters. There are lots of options for visor colors and styles to keep it interesting.

Awesome Day and Freeway Helmet
This is my 1rst AGV helmet and I love it. I have been commuting with it all day and it felt really nice. I have a fairly small head so I got an XS but its still wasn't as tight fit as my Scorpion x710, but manageable. The greatest part was on the freeway, the helmet stayed on, no movement and the hawks-chin really made a difference at high speed compared to a regular helmet.
Even at high speeds, the helmet stayed quite. The air vent placement is really good, especially on the chin, the air gets in but its not blowing on my lips getting them chapped as my other helmet does.
The only thing I don't like is the visor. Every time I close it, it makes a very loud noise that hurts my ears. During night time there are too many reflections light bouncing of my eyes through it that it makes it harder to ride and stay focused on the road.
Overall its a great helmet to be used during day time and high speed riding but its gonna take either a replacement visor or simply getting used to it to be able to ride at night.

I was looking for a starter helmet that had a nice look to it and also had features that made riding easier for me. The main reasons I chose this helmet was because it was a fairly good price and it had a sun visor. I didn't want to be changing my visor so this is an amazing feature.

paul502 on Jun 10, 2016
I really like the hawk look of the helmet. Bought it because of the style! This is my first $150+ dollar helmet and this doesnt disappoint. I like the drop down sun visor, easy to use with gloves. The drop down does fog a little bit but not much. I have a large-extra large size head (right in the middle of those two sizes) I would definitely recommend getting the extra large if you are in the same type of head as mine. Pretty tight in the cheeks but not unbearable.

I really liked the style and its different from my first helmet. The review and also customers said how it was redesigned from its original with little price increase. The reviews seemed solid, the fit sounded like it would be good for me as i am in between a medium in a small. I ride every day and i am bike only so it had a good amount of features that i can use on my commutes, and still be good for harder riding days.

Its been a solid helmet, no complaints on fit or finish. More comfortable than my icon variant.

Anybody use a Sena SMH-10 Bluetooth Headset with this helmet? How well does it fit?
Paul C on Jul 8, 2015
BEST ANSWER: I'm using a 20S which is similar. Module fit is just fine. My ears are a bit uncomfortable now though from the speakers, I'll see if I can adjust it though
I currently have this helmet and it fogs up. Is there a pinlock for the visor and sun visor?
Joyce L on Feb 26, 2017
BEST ANSWER: They come with them in the European helmets, Try getting one online at a European retailer.
I am torn between this and the Icon Airmada helmet. Which would you recommend for a sport bike rider who rides on the street more than at a track? I do a lot of riding both in town with traffic at slower speeds and on longer faster highway rides. My main concerns are keeping cool in the summer so my makeup doesn't melt off, minimal whistling/ excess noise inside the helmet, and stability (no wobbling at highway speed). Thank you for any advice to help me make my final choice!

BEST ANSWER: I hope I am not wasting your time because I can only speak for the Icon Airmada. I have been pleased with my Icon, especially for the price. It has served me well at highway speeds and the occasional spirited run (no wobbling, buffeting). It flows an adequate amount of air. It also is somewhat noisy at highway speed. It is prone to fog at or below 55 degF. Bottom line, I would buy another Airmada.
I was wondering how effective is the anti-fog coating on the AGV visor? Can it compete with pinlock? Also, in the past AGV visors were prone to scratching - is this still the case? Thanks!
A shopper on Nov 24, 2014
BEST ANSWER: I rode with this helmet in the cold and the visor fogged up quite a bit, I had to crack it at every stoplight I hit. I've not had a problem with the visor scratching - although they haven't come out with any visors but the clear for the small through medium helmets yet. I emailed asking and they said about a month after its release, so I don't know how effective those will be.
Will glasses interfere with the sun visor?

BEST ANSWER: The sun visor sits pretty far from your face so it should be fine with glasses
Does this helmet come with a tinted visor also?
A shopper on Jul 14, 2016
BEST ANSWER: No the helmet only comes with a clear visor due to this being the SV version of the helmet there is an internal "fighter pilot" style tinted visor that drops down behind the clear so there is no need for a secondary tinted main visor.
I'm almost ready to get one, but I've read a lot of reviews on other entry level AGV helmets where people are disappointed in the quality of the helmets, from stitching to visor gaskets, to whistling noises at speed. Could anyone tell me about the quality of construction and materials on this helmet? Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

BEST ANSWER: Hey Stephen, about the AVG K3 SV helment, in my opinion it's awesome. This new generation of AVG helmets are really a big step up from their older entry models. Now you still have to consider that it is priced as an entry model and will likely be a little heavier or a tad bit louder than pricier helmets, but so far I've had no issues with it (and i'm on a naked bike). It is a great helmet and you get a lot of quality and "premium" features for the price that you pay. Amazing bang for the buck. Hope that helps. -Javi
What is the mesh Velcro piece included in the baggie that comes with the helmet, and where does it attach?
Alex C on Apr 17, 2017
BEST ANSWER: If I recall correctly, the mesh Velcro piece is an air dam that goes between your chin and the helmet. It should stick directly to the fabric at the edge.
What bluetooth systems have people been using? I'm considering this helmet but am primarily interested in the bluetooth adaptability.
Joey S on May 31, 2015
BEST ANSWER: First let me say that you'll love the agv k3 sv... Great helmet and is comfortable (I have dreads just to give you an idea) and your going to like the sun visor feature.. but for the Bluetooth device/system I'm looking for one as well and I'm probably going to get the agv Bluetooth device that agv came up with for their helmet I would look into it, I'm sure it'll be a perfect fit and won't have to worry about refunds and returns..
