Are there any helmets out there that look and fit like a Novelty helmet, but are DOT approved?

got the polo style, fits great, no lift off of head

 

Interesting... now I have doubts about it. Maybe I'll just get a football helmet.

 

wow thomas love that avatar....i bought my acc helmet from chillhowee leather .....on their site it has the proper way to measure your noggin...the helmet came with 3 foam sizing pads...i tried all of them and went back to the original one that was already in it......i really love my helmet...in fact i hate to take it off when we stop for fuel..its that comfortable..i am well pleased...i havent experienced any lifting yet.rode 1000 miles since i got it...

 

I ned to get a new helmet . I got pulled over in NY state by a cop , he said that he could tell I was wearing a non dot helmet and slapped me with a ticket. I was a cool Gladiator style chrome helmet. I think I might switch to a full ace for the long trips and one of those carbon fiber one for around town. Are those carbon fiber helmets really dot approved, just dont want to spend the money for one and get pulled over again

 

yes..it says dot on the back and on the inside......

 

Stic2it, if you are having a problem with the fit, call them up. Mine was the right size, but was pressing kind of hard on my forehead and had some space on the sides so sent it back and the did some more work on it to form it better to my head. It needed to be a bit more oval (what can I say I must have a football type head). They say they do about one of these mods a day. They sent it back it fits great.
