    Looks well built. and some 100 g lighter than Blade.
    Good budget alternative for Shoei GT Air and Rpha ST.

      Could you please comment on the noise aspect of this helmet? Is wind noise obtrusive at highway speeds?

      Thanks.

        Hi, I use this helmet on a duke 390 and do speeds of around 100 to 130 on the highways. I can assure you that the wind noise is mostly isolated at these speeds. But one criteria is that all the vents must be closed and the chin curtain installed. Beyond those speeds it gets a bit noisy but still is not an irritating thing. One thing to note is that the helmet does tend to get warm when riding for some time.

          Hi, great review, since you have owned a few good helmets before, can you suggest a good helmet in a range of Rs.5000/-
          i am doing my research but your suggestion would also help.

          thanks.

            It would have been great if the Matrix had an internal sun visor, since mercury/smoked screen options are not available. That's my biggest grouse against Matrix.

            Another thing is with the chin curtain in place there is a lot of fogging in the visor. How did you tackle this issue? keeping a bit of visor open or removing the chin curtain?
            Fog issue can be handle through putting gillete foam in the inner side of the visor . Spread the foam with your hands and leave it for 20min to 30mins and wipe with any clean microfiber cloth or any baniyan . And i gaurantee you the fog issue ll be solved atleast for a week .

                  I have already posted this in the helmet thread.
