My problem with it and any other helmet that is not a full face is that at highway speeds, the wind pulls the helmet back and causes neck strain. I have gotten very lazy about wearing my helmet in non-helmet states because of this. One of the reasons I bought the ACC in the first place was to get comfortable enough to WANT to wear it even when the law didn't require me to.

I am the only one? Is there something about fitment that I haven't figured out yet that some of you can teach me?

Headtrip very light, minimum shroomage

HD heavier, more shroomage

HD has more padding and better finished liner

Headtrip has just enough to be DOT compliant but is still comfortable, thus, less weight and shroom effect.

I have a ACC carbon fiber headtrip helmet and its like wearing a ball cap (well almost )

In a serious accident, neither one will save your life. It's just more about keeping the cops off your back. Glad I live in Fl. and have the choice to wear it or not.
