Taken 2 hour long rides with it so far. First time had an annoying voice prompt that kept telling me it “couldn’t pair” every 2 minutes while riding even when I wasn’t doing anything. Fixed the sensitivity settings and that seemed to go away the second ride. Helmet is decently comfortable, good airflow, came with pinlock (though I haven’t installed it yet), and has a ton of features. My biggest complaint is that it doesn’t come with a quick release buckle. Seems like a simple thing that NONE of the Sena helmets even have an option for.
Miles beyond their 1st gen helmets. Fits mch more comfortably, lighter and the air flow is a huge improvement. All the features work properly. Only the Sena voice is a hit or miss but I dont think technology has caught up to make that work properly over large exhausts yet.
This helmet fits very well and the coms are decent. The sound quality is not good and I hope they improve wind noise reductions. Might look into the INC line but that’s more expensive. If you don’t care about music audio quality or noise reduction then this is great for the SENA built in.

This is a good helmet. I had a HJC IS-17, XL size, before which was uncomfortable on the forehead. The IS-17 is medium oval. The Momentum EVO being long oval, I should have less pressure on the forehead which is the case !
The sizing chart of the Sena helmet tells me I should get L size, but based on numerous reviews that these run small, I got the XL and I am glad I did.
PLEASE check you got a new one. The one I got from Amazon was clearly used by a previous customer : missing accessories/guides, missing some packing, and the telltale sign of the protective plastic on the visor full of small bubbles which shows that it has been removed and applied again... not cool Amazon, not cool at all !
This is a helmet, don't ship it back to a customer without proper manufacturer inspection and refurbishing !
So I returned it and ordered the same one from RevZilla, at least I'm sure it will be actually new.

Owning a Sena 20S Evo, I was attracted to the i90 because it was configured for a Sena Bluetooth system. I figured it would be ideal compared to a standard helmet.
Pros - Good fit as always. Recesses and wire channels for speakers = easy fitting. I had to use a few pieces of electrical tape to hold wires in place as I reattached the liners over them.
Cons - The drop down visor should have been better executed.
First, the control slide is positioned in front of where the Sena system(s) would mount. This means the Sena mounts further back than it could fit on the helmet. This makes placement of the 20S Evo's boom-microphone more difficult, but I managed to make it work.
Second, the control IS NOT spring-loaded like my last HJC. There is no quick-retract mechanism...something I think should have been retained. For a "three position" visor, I don't see it. There's deployed, retracted and ... well, since there's no spring, I guess you can deploy it as much or as little as you desire.
I've been happy with HJC's quality over the years. The quirks regarding the visor mechanism is the only reason I don't give the i90 a 5-star rating.
The helmet is not light, it has good padding, the fit around the head is correct. Wind noise tolerable. Has a little hidden compartment for Bluetooth device and cutout for speakers. My eyeglasses didn't fit right in the helmet cutout for glasses. The modular is nice but the locking mechanism squeezes the cheek area in so that it becomes uncomfortable because my cheek and jaw are compressed. I brought a large helmet so I brought a new pair of cheek pads, which isn't cheap, on size larger. Still uncomfortable on the face.
Good helmet for the money
