Had around $50 in ebay bucks I needed to redeem soon so I ordered this high vis Bell... http://www.ebay.com/itm/390595309490...84.m1423.l2649 Can't help but to alert just a bit more than the black version I've been sporting.

If you have ever slid down the pavement face first with a FF, you will never go with anything else. I still have my face thanks to a FF and I will continue to wear one, even though I'm no longer a sportbike rider. Choose to be made fun of a little versus losing your face!

I've been debating going full face for a while now. Question: anyone ever have a problem leaving the helmet on the bike? I would go Shoei as I've always loved their fit and the qwest fits my head like a glove but I don't want to carry it around the dealership or a bar, but leaving it on the bike could be an easy ****** and grab, knowing that Shoeis are expensive.

These day I wear a riding jacket, gloves and a full-face everywhere I go winter summer and fall.

Sup guys. I recently bought a '10 Iron 883 and have put about 250 miles on this summer. Its my first bike and my first time ever on a motorcycle. I took all my safety classes and got my license so Ive been taking the necessary steps to become a responsible owner. Ive done a few mods, including drag bars, new seat, pegs etc. The bike looks wicked and people can't believe its a harley and I get tons of compliments.
I wear an Icon SSR full face helmet thats flat black to match the bike. Someone told me today "real harley owners dont wear full face helmets". Im new to the whole culture but I understand it. Ive seen guys wearing vanity helmets that are not DOT approved and they do look cool but I dont want to risk my safety. I already feel weird enough driving without my leather jacket, but its been a constant 90 degrees and humid and I just cant do it.
So my question is, do I look douchey riding around with a full face helmet and gloves and nothing else? Am I the butt of all jokes when other motorcycle guys drive by?
