Going to treat myself to a new helmet. Want a mirrored visor. Can you have in helmet microphones and speakers? Talk to me biker dudes!

Go to a shop and find what fits. Fit is everything with helmets.

Do not select a helmet based on a visor.

Pick a helmet, and then select a visor

Most helmet manufacturers do speakers/mic/bluetooth etc especially for their touring helmets.

You can get mirrored visors for nearly any helmet....not sure if they are legal though, you best check. No point in attracting attention from the law .

go to a big shop with lots of stock and try helmets. Note most manufacturers have a range of models for different purposes and sometimes the fancy helmet for sports bike racing might look cool but not be that practical for your style of riding. The person in the shop should be able to explain the differences to you or you can research online first https://billyscrashhelmets.co.uk/top-10-helmets/

Gizmo’s need to be secondary to comfort!
