ebay DOT sticker is funny. No helmet law here in TX, so sticker is not necessary.

I bought an extended half shell a few years ago right beofre ACC had all the problems, love the helmet. I recently bought another from HeadTrip, in the natural chrome, again a sweet lid, identical to the first.

It is the only half helmet I can wear. I have been wearing the FF as it cools down thought.

They are light, comfy, low profile and they actually have a bad-a$$ shell, they don't charge $125 for junk.

Here is a pic of mine:

Exactly what I was looking for. Great endorsement. Think I will order one. I see that they have military green and military desert sand colors on the site, but no photo reference. Anyone know where I can get a pic?

I do not see those colors on the either site, or on the Facebook page.

Go to headtriphelmets.com and send them an e-mail, they threw in free leather ear flaps for free, they can probably send you a photo\image of the new colors.

Yeah, I looked both places as well and had already sent them an email. Waiting for a response. Sound like pretty cool colors and since I was in the Army, that may be the way I go.

If you think a 1/2 helmet is sufficient, well you are probably right.
