I just ordered the Bell drifter RSD skull helmet for only $39.99 bucks @ motorcycle superstore.com . The riverroad large fork bag was a good buy too.

I now this older now, but I just saw it and thought I would add to it.

I stopped at a small independent motorcycle gear shop today.

They had a huge selection of motorcycle helmets. Had been looking for a retro style 3/4 helmet (not to hard, but looking) that would give better protection than a 1/2 helmet and not nearly as hot as a modular FF (that also didn't look like a retiree on a GW).

The guy working at the shop recommended the Torc T-50. I tried it and what do you know, great fit, nice liner, reasonably light, and I like the look.

I never heard of Torc helmets before.

When doing a search when I got back home, I found this review:

Torc T-50 Review

Also came up w/their website:

Torc Helmets

I haven't ridden with it yet, so I can't say how it is on the road. But to this point, I really like it.

Hope this helps if anyone is looking for a retro style helmet.

Oh, I got the "Move Over" design. It's the only one they had in my size, so I grabbed it. The website says it runs from $89 to $129. I paid $119, so it's a bit on the higher side. When I did a search, I immediately found some sites and e b a y for $89 to $99. That's OK, I think I'm going to like this helmet.

I've got one, with the lucky 13 graphic. It fits really well, that's why I bought it. It's also big, I mean Great Gazzoo big, if that kind of thing bothers you. I don't have to look at it when it's on my head, so I could care less.
