Which Helmet.....

[Tal]

Because there is such a wide range to select from....Open Faced ...Full faced...smaller or LARGER...expensive or cheaper...which one?

Shoei RF 1200 for me.

Comfortable, fits me well. light enough, good looking, DOT and Snell rated so I can use it at the track and I know it will hold up should it's intended use be needed.

Tal, there are so many respectable makes out there, all compyling to the highest race/tech standards but all different in therir own way. The biggest difference seems to your own head shape, and therefore which manufacturer fits best! It is a matter of window shopping and trying on a lot of 'lids' to find which one suits you Sir!! Make sure you take the wife with you, then she might understand why you hate shopping for handbags...

Yeah...i know this.....but interested in why others choose what they choose...i wear HJC not only are they are a bit smaller than some of the others, but for the comfort and looks....
I guess it just comes down to fit in the end..?

I bought this a few months back was a great price and fits tight to my head.

Not sure @Tal would want to ride with me if I had this on.

I too am a fan of the HJC lids. I have had about 3 or 4 of them now.

And I have 5 helmets in the garage just now..

I use a Nolan N44...it’s basically 4 helmets in one and I wanted a full helmet that gave me the same peripheral vision as an open face. Also, it changes from a full face to enduro to open face. And for me has the most elegant Bluetooth kit available that doesn’t make you look like robocop! Horses for courses. It’s probably not the quietist helmet I’ve owned!

 

[Tal]

just googled it Jason....its alot of helmet for sure...
