That's exactly what I use. Good helmet.
Wish I had found this one first and I would have
saved a lot of money on the now unused helmets
that I have collected over the years.
I have one with 3 snaps so that I can use a half
faceshield if raining while traveling.
Love this helment and now I wear always
Ride Safe!!!

I live in FL ... no helmet law. I mostly wear 1/2 helmet carbin fiber. If riding in inclement weather, I may wear a full face just to keep the rain out of my face. It has to be pretty bad for that though.

Even when my state dropped the helmet law for several years, I have always worn one. I just don't feel right without one. I own 3 (1/2,3/4, and FF Modular) so there's always one appropriate for the weather etc. I never wore a seat belt til it became law and now it feels strange not to. Guess I'm just becoming an old paw paw.

We have to wear one in the U.K. and I've had a few over the years from a firm called Davida. They have distibutors in the U.S.A.
Their website is davida.co.uk.

Check out the Scorpion EXO-100 3/4 helmet. Has the slickest little visor that pops down/up.

I live in Ma. and to the north NH & Me have no helmet laws. I use to pull over right away
to take helmet off but now I ride to where I'm going. I typically wear half helmets.
I'm now looking for one that's dot approv. and is not to bulky at the same time.
Carbon fiber mostlikely but have to see it in person can't order online.
There's a motorcycle show coming to Boston next month I 'll be shopping for a new one
there.

Great Helmet, never liked to wear one before. Like others I went through alot. Didn't like the mushroom look. Their helmet is light and it looks great. I went with the polo in the natural carbon fiber color. Can't say enough about the helmet or the people that run the company...
