UPDATE: See our Vemar Jiano full
review
February 19, 2008 - I took a quick look and a couple of
photos of the new Vemar Jiano flip-up (modular)
motorcycle helmet at the 2008 Dealer Expo (more...). I don't
have much information other than what's on the Motonation website; a full webBikeWorld review will be
forthcoming soon.We reviewed the Vemar VSR several
years ago, but Vemar had some distribution problems in
the U.S. market, (which isn't unusual for a limited
volume manufacturer) but is now back and Motonation will
be distributing the helmets and is selling them direct
via their website.
In the meantime, here are some photos of the Vemar
Jiano that I took at the show. The Jiano is
available in limited colors: silver, matte black or gray
and a small pattern. It's available in sizes from
XXS to XXL in two shell sizes.
It has a few nice features, including a five year
warranty; DOT and ECE 22.05 approval; a thermoplastic
shell; metal pins and hooks for the flip-up visor; and
it comes with both a 2.2 mm thick clear visor and a 2.2
mm thick tinted visor.
Vemar claims that the Jiano has a "mid oval" shape,
which probably means it has a relatively neutral fit.
We hope to have more soon; in the meantime, here are
a couple of photos:

offered so far, "Escape Matte Graphite".

By the way, we have a Vemar VSREV on the way in these
cool Italian flag colors!
