Nexx X.D1 Dual Sport Helmet

We received this helmet a few weeks ago for testing and had high expectations. It's a good, but not great helmet.

At present the market is pretty strong for dual sport helmets with manufacturers offering their own rendition of an off road, street design. Sales of dual sport motorcycles have increased, or street bikes with some trail riding capability so the demand does call for it. However, when manufacturers such as Shoei, Arai, Suomy and Icon who are all synonymous in their own right with off road and adventure helmets, it does leave other manufacturers just venturing into this market sector with a tough task to match!

Our new Nexx X.D1 arrived just 3 weeks ago – a Touratech clone and we've given it a 2,000 km plus test, but expectations were very high having personally owned the Nexx XR1R carbon. Despite a minor issue with the visor on XR1R model, the helmet itself was one hell of a shell! As for the new Nexx X.D1, many retailers and promoters are saying it is untouchable at this price rage. We’re hoping they’re right, as Nexx yet again have turned out a tasty looking lid!

This style of helmet will never be as stable as a street or racing helmet of course, but there are cheaper helmets that do a better job in our opinion.
