Anyone have a Shark Evoline 2 ST E-Tec helmet?

I have been looking at helmets and my want list is, modular, built in sunvisor and bluetooth capable. I had looked at the Nolan 103, but someone showed me this Shark. I really like the idea of being able to ride with it in the closed or open positions since it can get quite warm in Texas. I also think the glow in the dark model is kind of cool, hahaha. Anyone have any experience with this one. Hows the comfort, noise levels, overall build quality, etc? Thanks!

Also, does anyone know if Houston, TX has any shops that would have this helmet in stock so I could try it on?

ive done some playing with these helmets, great idea, sorta poor execution, in order for the chin bar to flip up, the visor needs to be either open or closed, i forget, which makes it a hassle sometimes as the visor moves independently from the chin bar section, but it could also cause issues with wind noise down the line

That didn't bother me as much as the fact that it weighs about 43 lbs.

I actually had 2 of these...I bought a Evoline series 1...it sucked & after LOTS of complaining I returned it & it was replaced with a Series 2 which was better...however, I have discovered that I have kind of a oval shaped head and this helmet is just not for me..I have gone to one of the Nolan modulars & prefer it so much more AND their bluetooth system is AWESOME !!
