I’m looking for s new Helmet. I was wondering what people think of helmets that have a cutout for a con system like the Sena . I see the bell qualifier fox has a cutout for a sena. Vs a helmet that doesn’t have the cutout and pockets for the speakers. What’s you guys opinions?
Thanks

Most modern helmets have cut outs for speakers. I think it's best to find a helmet that you like, then worry about the electronics. This winter I purchased a Scorpion EXO AT-950 Modular and added a SENA 10R. It works great in my living room, but its gonna be a few more weeks before I get to really test it.

Agree with Gary, find a fit that you like and then worry about the cutouts.
I started with a $400 Scorpion, really liked it. I then got a bargain on a $900 Schuberth (in a BMW dealership, of all places!) and each helmet had their plusses and minuses. My next helmet? I'd probably go back to the Scorp, but I will try out ALL brands because everything changes, especially over a 10-year timeframe. Find a brick-n-mortar that will let you try on a bunch, for at least 10 minutes at a time.

Just do me a favor. Once you find a lid that agrees with your mug, buy it there! Don't whip out your phone and save $15 from some overseas supplier; that brick-n-mortar allowed you to do a hand's-on trial, give them some business to reward them.

Good luck!
