Is that the SY-MAX or SY-MAX II?

It is the IS MAX BT. Its not a bad helmet, fits fine, has all the features I wanted, isnt that heavy, sometimes its hard to close and I need to force it, but never a problem that cant be fixed with one hand. The helmet is comfortable and I am happy with it, but I would rather have spent the extra $$$ for the scorpion. So far every helmet I have bought that isnt a scorpion has dissapointed me.

Really my issue with it is quality, the padding around the rear needs to be pushed back in once in a while, the shield fogs up in the rain, and the chin wind guard is slightly better than worthless. Also the vents are crappy, unless I kinda bend my head forward just a little, then it works great.

I am thinking about getting the exo 900 this summer. Not a bad lid, but if you are gonna spend the $$$ on it, spend the extra $$$ and get the scorpion. If you can find it for $125 or less go for it.
