1/2 helmet most of the time. Harley system full face in cold weather or on a long trip. Take the 1/2 to change into when get to destination or if get overly hot. Believe it or not I get sleepy when wearing a full face and it starts to get hot.

I voted commando, but will ride with a 1/2 shell if I am going to be on the expressway all day.

For most medium to long rides (or cold weather) I wear a full face since I don't like the look of a windshield on my bike. I just picked up a new Arai Corsair V.

For short rides I wear a half helmet.
