Alpinestars Balaclava
By PB
Fits my big head with no problems. Keeps me very warm and the fit is great. Tucks into my riding jacket so it isn't flapping in the wind at the shoulders. Washable as well. Feels great when worn. Very breathable. Recommend this for any rider. I ride a sportbike and wear a full face helmet. Helmet slides on with no problems and doesn't catch or stick to the balaclava. Just what I was looking for.

Currently satisfied with this balaclava
By Dustin B
Having looked at a variety of balaclavas and reading various reviews, I decided this was the one to go with. I already have been impressed with a pair of their motorcycle shoes and cold-weather socks, and I know they are a well-established gear manufacturer.
One problem many other brands had with their balaclavas was a lack of a full coverage of the neck, both front and particularly the back. This product has a nice length and double-layer thickness of the "skirt" if you will, and keeps your neck area consistently shielded from wind. It has a softer fleece inner layer in this area of the neck. I wear a full set of gear in this cold weather, and this balaclava fits nicely beneath my textile jacket and flip-up full face helmet.
Motorcycle balaclavas cannot be immensely warm due to the fact of thickness restriction. You would never get your helmet on comfortably, or you'd have an extra larger helmet for just the occasion which is a waste of money. This product does what it is designed to and blocks wind very well, keeps you warm, and looks fairly cool. I had some comments that I looked "like an assassin out of a movie" when I wore this with my all black gear and black sport bike. Regardless of what you want to look like, go with this one. It's worth the little extra money IMO. My only gripe is that the nosepiece cover can slide a little bit during use, but this is expected with the heavy helmet I have. Oh, but good news is that the eye hole space is huge and doesn't restrict vision, which is one thing I can't say about some other balaclavas I saw.
I will update if I find any problems down the road, but so far it's performed well even during 30s-40s temperatures on the highway at night for over a half-hour.

A must have
By NWDub
A must have for riding. Seriously. You'll never go back after you try this. I ride every day and this makes it much less miserable.
