I had a Shark Evo 2. Looked at all the flip ups before getting it. Had a car turn left in front of me and the helmet did good. So I needed a new one.

Was getting ready to order a Shark again, when I came across a Schuberth C3 Helmet.

Pricey, but I ordered it anyway. This hat really impresses me............(usually very hard to do)........Seals the neck for cold weather, very quite, rock stead at 90+........(about as fast as my WG will go).... with NO windshield. Vents move more air, larger more adjustable sun shield, dual no fog front visor. Nice quick release strap

Everything works with a lot more precession.



Just my $.002.

 

I recently purchased an ARAI Vector full face and love it, my old full face used to fog over real bad, this one hardly does it at all.

 

I don't wear a helment in the small town I live in , but on a trip I wear a Scorpion 700 full face. Great fit cause you can access the foam inside and shave it if need be. Iron Pony in Columbus, Ohio, the largest store of it's kind in the country { an old K-Mart stuffed to the roof } has 1000's of discounted helments as well as parts. I just bought another 700 for $79.99. It was just an older pattern and color and they had a pallet of them 12 high. Google them, it's worth it.

 

My wife and I both wear Shoei FF helmets (RF-1000, and FR-1100); they come with a 7 year warranty. This brand fits our heads well, and since I commute in sub-freezing weather, I appreciate the FF. I pull a neck gator up over my chin and secure the helmet's strap over it. This keeps the cold drafts from going down my jacket's neck opening.

 

Getting the optional $7 chin skirt (wind deflector) with the EXO-700 is well worth it. Makes the helmet a lot quieter and more comfortable in cooler weather. Any shield sold as anti fog just means it has an anti fog coating that will wear off after a few uses. When I had my EXO-700 I still had to use anti fog spray to keep from fogging in cool/cold weather. You can customize the fit of this helmet with thinner or thicker check pads which is something usually only more expensive brands like shoei and arai allow.

The EXO-750 is the newer version of the 700 and has a more impact absorbing shell to meet the ECE requirements.

 

A visor equipped Shoei RJAir is what I like. When facing the sun, you can tip you head down slightly and block out the sun with the visor, or even wear a cap underneath to have a longer visor. Their vent system works great.

Worst helmet was the half helmet I bought for MSF classes. I made the mistake of taking it on a trip to Sturgis, thinking it would be cooler in the August heat, but the cross wind pull on it gave me a sore neck.

My lady, on the other hand, has a Harley full face, and finds it gives her much better protection up in the wind behind me.
