Not to mention...why would anyone wear an unsafe helmet with little to no protection to begin with.

I had a Drifter, it was as comfortable as a wooden hat

Just like American made cars...piles of crap.

I miss the days when America was the world leader in products. (yeah...I know Harley is made in USA)

They have over 922 sales on ebay, I wonder if it is just the one model group that brought them down? I see they no longer have lids up for auction on Ebay.

I have a SHOEI RF-1100 with a dark smoke shield. Best helmet on the market IMO. It is quiet, breathes well, and is light. I ordered mine from Competition Accessories. I also have used an HJC CL-15 which is also a good helmet, but the SHOEI is much better.

Both function much better than a bandana.

I bought a HJC modular. Been pretty comfortable...cool enough in the warm weather and warm enough in the winter.

I bought a Advanced Carbon Composites helmet a couple years ago and they look so cool on the website. Look like they fit real low, no mushroom head, etc but when I got it it was like when you get a bicycle helmet: had all these sticky padded things you were suppose to put in there to shape it to your head. It was the worst mushroom headed helmet I ever saw. I sent it right back. The first helmet I bought was a white helmet with the black earflaps. Looked great in the store but when I got it home all I could think of was Village People. I was the COP! Took that one back that afternoon. Now I have an HCI DOT carbon polo helmet that's become my favorite. I have 3 others but I wear that one the most.

Dude its bad enough that a-holes in cages are on the cell but to use it while on the scoot. You need to learn the reason to ride is to get away not bring it all with you. If you are worrying about the call you aren't watching what is happening around you. I'd hate to see your name in the obituaries.
