The Dark Side on Christmas Eve...

Why do snowmobile helmets have better features, venting, are more comfortable, yet get the same DOT rating as motorcycle helmets?

I am going to find out...

I ordered a GMAX GM54S and will see what comes of the utter coolness sled riders get over the rest of us.

54S Features: 
  • NEW INNER FLIP TINT SUN LENS, with the best anti-fogging coating available today.
  • Inner flip shield is easily raised or lowered with a lever located on the exterior of the helmet.
  • STATE OF THE ART ANTI-FOG, MAXIMUM SEAL DOULBLE LENS SHIELD COMES WITH ANTI-SCRATCH HARD COATED OUTER LENS FOR A LONGER LASTING CLEAR VIEW.
  • New integrated multi-function red LED rear light.
  • One hand easy to use chin bar push to open mechanism.
  • Lightweight DOT approved Thermo-Plastic Alloy shell. 
  • Excellent shield sealing reduces cold air and noise.
  • SPC TOP FRONT VENTS/INTERIOR AND STYRO DESIGNED FOR CONTROLLED AIR FLOW.
  • GMAX “D.E.V.S.” adjustable “Dual Exhaust Venting System” Top, side and rear venting reduces fogging and sweating by allowing hot air to escape from the mouth area and top of head.
  • Large Eye port for improved range of vision.
  • Adjustable chin vent directs air upward across the inside of the shield to help reduce fogging.
  • DuPont Coolmax comfort liner and cheek pads move the moisture away from your body and the fabric dries quickly. The added performance keeps you dry and comfortable.
  • Removable/washable interior and adjustable cheek pads allow for more comfortable sizing.
  • Deluxe ear pockets for better fit and comfort.
  • Built in speaker pockets for communication systems.
  • Snap-in snowmobile chin curtain for added warmth and quietness.
  • Snap-in maximum seal breath guard reduces fogging.
  • Soft padded chin strap.
  • Painted shell with high-tech water decals and high quality clear coat finish.
  • Protective aesthetic lower rubber molding.
  • Helmet bag included.
  • NEW “Throttle” Graphics.
