I tried a lot of different ones before settling on a Shoei 1000. I found the best prices on Ebay.

I have the Scorpion EXO 1000, it's expensive but it's an amazing helmet. I use it whenever I'm doing long freeway rides.

Wink helmets

I use a Nolan 103, spent 30 days in it when I went to Alaska and back, and I jst bought a new Bell Revolver for around town, Love them both.

I doubt that I will ever wear a half helmet again.

I have an HJC CS-R1 solid black and a HD half helmet. The full face is very comfortable plenty of ventilation.

Currently have a Nolan 103...pretty good.
Half helmet for the summer.
Nothing beat my old Arai.
I'd say Arai and Shoei, best in the game.

Bell Star in matte black, with a photochromatic shield. Awesome ventilation...I love it.

I don't wear it much when I ride my bagger, but I always wear it on my FXR.

Have a Scorpion EXO-700 and an Arai Profile.

I like the Scorpion better, and it was half the cost of the Arai. Least expensive Snell rated helmet out there, AFAIK. Could be wrong.

The Arai has a better finish, hands down, and a slightly better quality liner. But I like to change out liners fairly frequently anyway.

Arai Profile, black frost. Very comfortable and good ventilation. Usually wear the half unless it's cold though.

I have a Shark, I like being able to go from full to 3/4 with the push of a button, even while riding.
