Check these out, watch the whole thing for everything they can do. I have one and love it. I also got mine from these guys and they were great to deal with.

As others have said here, the Harley/HJC IS 33 is an excellent helmet, it's light, has a clear and a tint drop down face shield .I got mine from motorcyclegear.com for $118 shipped.

I've got the helmet for you. Made by HJC, who also makes the Harley version. The HD is called the "Ultra-Jet". It's a 3/4 with shield. And the one I'm selling is carbon fiber, which they are no longer making. Mine is like new, only wore a couple times, and size Large. I wear a 7 3/8 hat size if that helps. Or you could go to the Dealer and try on the Ultra Jet. The HD version of this helmet sold for $350 when it was available. I'ts very light and comfortable, and comes with a clear and a smoked shield, visor, and storage bag. It only weighs 2lb8oz. Asking $169 shipped.https://www.hdforums.com/forum/gear-...met-sz-lg.html

I've been using the HJC FS-3 for 3+ years. Great helmet for touring.

Nolan N43E Trilogy Helmet Review at RevZilla.com - YouTube
Depending how it sits on your head, that helmet has the options I'm looking for. 3/4 open, 3/4 w/shield, full face w/chin bar plus a flip down sun shield. I would guess the "mushroom head" would rear it ugly self though......

My Daytona 3/4 helmet is nice. Really comfy and light wieght. Blocks wind noise too. I wear a polo novelty now though just to keep the wife off my back lol.

Me and the wife both have the HJC IS-33, hers is the regular version, mine is the HD branded. She got hers first, liked it so well I got one while in Sturgis on a good sale. I also have a Scorpion and a Nolan. I like the HJC better than both. I had all sorts of heck trying to get the communications headset to work on them. And I think the HJC is more comfortable.
