everyday use
The chinstrap is a type that goes through the buckle, so it is difficult to use.
Also, the design was a little old-fashioned, but it was inexpensive.
It was good

The pressure on the cheeks is somewhat better.
Replacing it will relieve some of the pressure on the cheekbones.
But,
It is better to increase the HelmetSize by one size than to replace it with a thinner Cheek Pad.
I recently thought it might be a good idea...

Large Wind Cutting sound Large Kiku Minus
■ Design
Logo in Matte Black and Color:The screen is gray with a large, long, oval-shaped silhouette, giving it a slim impression. The interior color is Brown, which gives a fashionable impression.
■ Function
It has basic features such as GlassesSlit, ShieldHolder, Ventilation, etc. It is equipped with a sun visor and is easy to raise and lower. The SpeakerPocket makes it easy to install the Income or Speaker kit by simply inserting the speaker into the pocket. The One Touch Buckle is different from OGK's, but the buckle is a small type, so it is a little difficult to find the lock when you put it on.
Performance
As the title says, Wind Cutting sound is very Large, perhaps due to the shape of the helmet, but it is a Large sound compared to the same Jet helmet YJ-20 of the same company or OGKCUBT's Jet helmet of about 20,000 yen of other companies.
Also, running noise can be heard reasonably well. In other words, the sound insulation is not as good as a helmet priced below 10,000 yen. The weight is average, but the inside shape is a little large, so there is plenty of room even if your head or face is large.
■ Optional item
Unlike the YJ-20 that just came out, it is not treated for fogging. Rain, of course, but temperature differences can cause extreme fogging. Therefore, a Pin Lock Seat is a must. In my case, I had to wait for several months to get the special Pin Lock Seat. In the meantime, I used the Universal Type, but the Universal Type is perfectly fine, and I don't feel much change after replacing it with the dedicated one.
General Comment
Depending on the driving attitude and the motorcycle, wind cutting noise is terrible at speeds over 60 km/h, so it is suitable for short-distance touring on downhill roads. The Merit is the smallest size, but it is also the least expensive, stylish, and the size is large, so it can be easily attached and detached. Those who use the Merit at high speeds and those who require good sound insulation should be very careful when purchasing it.

unavoidable choice
Since Yamaha's Helmet is inexpensive, it is a step below ARAI and SHOEI. Still, they are very good in terms of ease of use. That is why I have been using it as SecondHelmet for a long time. My favorite is the YJ-5Series, which I have replaced three times and still use with a new interior and Shield. However, it was time to replace it, so I bought the latest YJ22. However, the fit was not so good, and I felt that I could not use it as a SecondHelmet. So I had no choice but to buy a YJ20. The reason why I had no choice but to buy the YJ20 is because the anti-fogging Shield, which is the "selling point" of the YJ20, has the advantage of being "anti-fogging" but also has the disadvantage of being "anti-fogging". Not durable." The Shield's anti-fog coating would deteriorate and become useless in less than a few years.
The Shield is always replaced with the Option Smoke Shield instead of the OEM Shield. I really wanted to get the DARKSmoke Shield, but only the Mirror Shield has no anti-fog function. So I bought this one, thinking that the anti-fogging function would not deteriorate.
Install the Mirror shield received from Webike as soon as possible.
Installation is easy, but it is necessary to read the Instruction Manual properly and raise the Shield fully up. Pull the knob completely. If you don't do these two things properly, you will break the mounting.
I'll try to wear it as soon as possible. [Color] The Smoke Shield of Yamaha's Helmet is traditionally thin, but this one is also thin. The conventional Smoke Shield is blackish in color. [Color] If it is Smoke, then this Mirror shield is an Amber-based [Color] It is Smoke with Brown tint. [Color] It is Smoke. It is an amber coloring often used in the WindowGlass of European cars in the past.
In the evening, instead of reducing visibility, they do not provide much protection from direct sunlight.
It is glaring when looking at the sun, so you will feel glare when driving toward sunrise or sunset.
For durability. No anti-fog." I bought a Mirror Shield from Yamaha, but actually the Mirror part peels off easily and the durability is not so good. I wish Yamaha would release a "no-fog" Spec. Smoke Shield and also lower the price.

Strap is short.
I was going to return it, but the Strap was too short! I thought that I would return it, but the tag on the Vinyl bag is a trap that comes off easily when I try it on. I gave up on the gold amount because there was a comment on another site that I could not get a return gold for this. The logo of the forehead peels off more easily than I thought, so I put the sticker of SHOEI on it. View detail
It's not bad in its own way.
I think it's a decent build for a relatively cheap Helmet. The weight, wind cutting sound, and interior are inferior to the more expensive products, but for the price, it's not so bad.
The only thing that has always bothered me is the sound of opening the Inner Visor, there is a push button on the outside of the Helmet and the sound of the spring and the impact of the spring when you push it open is very annoying and noisy inside the interior. This needs to be improved. Clunk!
The wind cutting sound is also so-so, but it doesn't bother me so much once I get used to it. Because it is this price, it is the feeling that it can be put up with. I like the shape and design of the cap.
Ventilation is not surprisingly bad.

I expected the model to be a new model, but there are points of concern in terms of quality
【Purchase motive】
I used to love it [YJ-5II ZENITH] As an alternative to the company's new model : Select YJ-20 ZENITH.
【Other purchase consideration products】
SHOEI SHOEI : J-FORCE IV price is.....
【Actual use feeling】
After purchasing, it is an imp of using for about 1 year.
Exterior & Design & Function :
During high-speed driving, the feeling that Helmet was pulled by the wind was slightly less than YJ-5.
I can not feel about improving Ventilation, but I have no bad impression.
Feeling of fit :
In the YJ - 5, the opening was slightly narrow and it was just good to wear, but in the YJ - 20 the opening was wide
I can snugly wear it (Desorption SmoothInner Form) , The circumference of the head was felt somewhat narrow,
Overall 0. About 5 Size Impression that Small got tough.
The effect of glasses Slit is good.
I feel that the jaws are slightly short, but the one-touch type Chin strap is convenient.
Wind cut sound :
Compared with YJ - 5, the volume of wind noise has decreased slightly, but there is no dramatic change.
Due to the high adhesion between Shield and Body, it is caused by the air current flowing through the gap
High-frequency wind noise is produced. Some people may feel uncomfortable compared to low-mid-range wind noise.
Shield :
Anti-Fog Shield which prevents clouds is very good, cold period, white due to exhalation Shield is cloudy
It prevents it well.
Not White at all, not White, but even if it gets cloudy, its cloudiness turns into a transparent Small water droplet in a short time
Wide view is secured. However, since the waterdrop does not evaporate soon, so to some extent
Straining will distort the view and hinder it.
【Anxious point】
Because this shield is processing Anti-Fog, inside Shield is very delike
It is.
Even if you wipe with a soft Dustcloth, it will be scratched easily. (It was exchanged twice with 1 year use)
Also distortion noticeable in Shield (The view is distorted) There was a product with.
At the moment, there is no handling of Shield in place of Webike, even in the Large hand mail order site 4000 ~ 5000,
It is expensive as a consumable item!
It may be a matter of individual differences, but there is noise from around the Body connection part of Left SideStrap.
Every time Helmet shakes due to running wind "Gee, Gee" I got strange noise and running for a long time
Then it is not extremely disgusting! (I tried variously, such as lubrication, but did not improve)
(When suffering Helmet, Strap is Quantity : Pair (for Left and Right) At that time, Helmet?
Does Creak sound like that? It is such a sound)
【Request to Manufacturer】
As it is an inexpensive category, I think there is opinion that it is suitable for the price, but YJ - 5 is very satisfying item
As expected, I expect that quality improvement will be made.

It is neither good nor bad
I bought it for the SmallEngine Displacement Volume, but I told you that it is neither good nor bad. The feeling that I was covered was rugged and the inside Cushion wood was thin and long distance Touring might feel a sense of incompatibility. It is good with one-touch chinstrap, but there is no room to adjust the string. Since Size is L Size and another company Helmet also uses L Size, I made it L this time, but it feels a bit cramped. I'm satisfied because I bought it for a slight ride anyway. View detail
I think that it is roughly a passing score
Because I spend in Glasses except when I am away from Large type, I bought this Jet type from the troublesomeness of desorption when playing in the city of Second Motorcycle, Off play.
I also own the Show Face's Full Face, but again, Jet also shows Showa, ARAI will have a value and if it does not skip at 125 cc this is OK ...
Since Size is covering Full Eye of Show Eye with M, I made it the same Size, but it was not too loose and there was no problem.
The appearance The texture of the interior is not too bad (Especially the engine color of interior is swanky) Buckle of One-touch is also convenient to use.
Helmet itself is light, and there is no opening feeling which is not on the full face, and using the Neck warmer does not feel so cold around the jaw.
The only regret was the wind noise.
A distinctive high-frequency wind-tone sound comes from about 90 kilometers per hour.
Because it is quite a volume, I can not recommend it honestly for people who use highway and who usually fly away.
Shoei, ARAI area around here is also good ...
Just including the price, I think that it was the best choice for my intended use.
