I have a GF that says the helmet is too heavy and hurts her neck. What do women like for helmets? I was thinking 3/4 because she wants her ears covered.

 

Before looking for a helmet, ask her whats more important:
A little discomfort? or her pretty face when she's looking to kiss the asphalt?

 

my wife has the HD ultra jet carbon fiber .very light and comfortable .if you buy it from HJC,you'll save about 100 dollars .

 

they all say that at first. women want no gloves, high heels and nice hair on the bike sadly .
My finace prefers the Bell Custom 500 now to most others, she found the HD ones too heavy, she was OK with my racing Shoei X-11 as well.

 

I bought my wife a Suomy modular, that way she has full face protection when we are in heavy traffic and she can flip it up for country cruizin'. I have 2 kids who need their mom to stay alive in the event of an accident, so I ruled out half and three quarter helmets immediately. Facial disfiguration statistics are staggering with open face helmets!

 

My wife loves her Daytona 3/4. It's cheap, light and Dot. It also fits her head, which is kinda important. The other 3/4s she tried didn't fit very well.

 

I loved my skyline harley bling (rhinestone harley logo on front) 3/4 but only wore it for a week since I decided I am too vain for 3/4 helmet (as in I want to minimize the risk of road rash on my face)
Then I had Harley skyline FF good for about my first 14K miles BUT I went and got a SHOEI 1100 (very $$$$$) but super light and I love it. I ride enough the cash was worth it but not everyone can say that

 

The helmet Marisa Miller wore in the Harley Video ads about 2 years ago is probably a HD helmet. It sure seemed light because when she whiped it off tons of blonde hair flew out and settled into place perfectly. Sorry, I don't know where the video is anymore or I'd be watching it again myself.

 

My biggest problem was finding a helmet that actually fits my girlfriend, and then throw in mutiple hairstyles depending on the day....

The best answer....What ever the hell she wants.

 

my wife loves her daytona...
