FF when it's cold, 3/4 when it's hot and raining, and 1/2 when it's nice weather.

I have a full face and a half helmet. I've always worn FF because that's what I was most comfortable in..... but this Summer we have had over 45 days with temps in the 90's....... so I broke down about a month ago and bought a Vega XTS half helmet.
It took a little getting used to but now I love it. I definetly have better peripheral vision with it compared to the FF.
I'll go back to the FF as the weather cools off.

3/4 with a flip up face shield, all the time. No lid laws here, so long as ya got insurance, but I made a promise. Therefore, I wear the lid and spritz it with some Febreeze now and then. FLA gots some good riding weather most of the time, but it's hotter than He!! during the summer.

Raising the shield makes things more comfortable and of course good sunglasses make it easier on the peepers.
