I have a NOlan N-102 Full face flip front! I love it! its what i ride in colder/mild weather, but Ihave riden w/ it up to 90 degrees. Good ventilation, windcoverage & its easy to use. Also you can get the N-COm bluetooth system for wireless communicating & phone answering etc...

My wife and I both have black HJCs as our cold weather helmets. They aren't expensive and they are DOT and Snell approved. My hot weather helmet, and the one I prefer over all is a KBC Airborne Edition 1. Great ventilation. I wore it in Phoenix in the summer time. I don't know how other people go with half or no helemts at 120 degrees. My wife's other helmet is a Fulmer Apache. She really likes it. All our helmets are full face. For dirt I have an O'Neil 544, DOT/Snell,with Oakley goggles.

I like the Nolan too, the modular fits me very well ( I have the long oval kind of head), and the new model has an integrated tinted visor that flips up when you don't need it. It also cuts throught the air nicely. I got mine from "Helmet City" in California, mail order and free shipping. I have the "can you see me now" yellow since my black one was "used" in an recent accident.

I have a Nolan N102 and I love it would Highly recommend it. mine is the Outlaw(Flat black with blacked out lettering) I wear it all year long in really hot weather and dont have any problems. I love the flip down sunscreen. it is prefect for all day riding and then when nitetime comes us just flip it up works great.
