Styling

The Spartan GT features an aggressive styling for great street riding and an impressive number of designs and colours. A full ventilation system with 2 air inlets and 2 air extractors with an on/off switch is incorporated into the design. The internal sun visor operating system is subtle and doesn't interfere with the smooth aesthetic of the Spartan GT.

Negatives

The Spartan GT is an awesome helmet, but for the money, you can start looking at Shoei and Arai helmets which carry a fantastic legacy in the motorcycle world. Shark use more of a rounded fit, so a Shark won't be for everyone. The non-carbon version is a bit on the heavy side compared to the Arai and Shoei counterparts, plus the visor catch can be an issue sometimes.

Verdict

The Spartan GT is a solid choice for any level of biker. If the rounded fit suits you, then you cannot go wrong with it. The design is sleek and aerodynamic, with a vast choice of design and colour options. You can save money on the Spartan GT, too, at J&S Accessories Ltd!
