What kind of helmet and we riding with?

There's nothing cool about dentist bills, and missing teeth. I couldn't care less about what anyone thinks of my full face helmet. Up here in northern ca, everyone except for people on baggers usually have a full face on. I originally wanted a 3/4 helmet, but then I read the statistics on helmet impact, and after seeing that over 1/3 of all impacts occur in the jaw area, I'm good with a full face. Cvaria's most recent thread is just extra reinforcement on why I roll with the full face.
Maybe I'm out of line here for assuming, but I doubt the pack of club members that burned past me doing nearly 90mph yesterday were "hella retarded".

I used to wear Shoei Platinum 3/4, very quiet but got sick of mask and goggles so now i use a Shark full face i had from a few years back, love it, put it on and off you go
Looking at updating to a quiet Shoei FF when i can,

I use to think that way about the full face helmets but for those longer hauls or just riding in crappy weather I love it. I also got tired of feeling like my face was getting sand blasted especially when I was behind tow trucks and landscaping trucks on the highway. I still have my half and 3/4 but I will use my half for the quick errand trips when it's outrageously hot and humid out. My 3/4 is mainly collecting dust. I did take one hell of a ball busting from family and friends when I made the switch!
