Pick the helmet that fits and meets your functionality and ride.

The point is to ride!!!
X10 It gets down to forty below here in the winter, I see everyone wearing fancy clothes and complaining that they are freezing their nerds off and laughing at me because I'm warm in my fur hat and fur mittens. I would rather be warm then look good.

The point of wearing your helmet is what again????????

Yup, another way is to spend some time in the gym and girls will be looking at your arms as opposed to your goofy head and double chin

[QUOTE=NSR;13038138]All I'm saying is that appearance and styling is a factor when making a decision on any purchase. If it wasn't, we'd all have the same bike, helmet, gloves ... the same everything...

We all have different priorities and tastes that guide us. Ain't freedom great?

FSCK mushroom head. I wear a Fulmer V2 Bobber becuase it doesn't try to strangle me at highway speed. And it has some decent protection. Plus, I have no idea I am wearing it. Except, there's no wind noise.

Debate over?

A 3/4 helmet is something I haven't tried. I gotta pick one up to try out

I had a Shoei RJ-Air that was incredibly comfortable. Highly recommended (whatever the new version is).
