Does anybody know who manufacters the hybrid helmets for HD? I am looking for a good quality half helmet and cant find many options out there. Any suggestions? Thanks.

 

I think KBC

 

I don't know anything about hybrids. Good quality 1/2, HJC. I just bounced mine in a wreck. Head is fine bike might be totaled. I will be ordering another one.

 

I have one but don't c who made it on the helmet .

 

Bought the better half a 3/4 Hybrid last winter, loved it, so light you can't hardly feel it. So I found me one that I liked, guess what..... not available anymore in that pattern. So I checked everywhere, finally HD found me one in Nebraska, but wrong size. To shorten this month long story...I called KBC, they said they only made that Hybrid for HD and was not available as a KBC brand. So now I switched to a 1/2 helmet and found a hybrid that fit and bought it. Only weighs a little over 1 lb and feels good.

 

i bought the hybrid half helmut yesterday and i like it the wind doesnt shake it but it looks like a mushroom head. mine is the one with the vents

 

I know that the Harley Half Helmet with the built in visor is manufactured by HJC. The HJC version is EXACTLY the same except it has HJC on the front and doesnt have the Harley emblems on the side.

HJC is about 90 and the HD one is about 120

 

Thanks for the responses. There is something about that hybrid that makes it feel like it actually fits "around" the head instead of just resting on the top. I tried a friends for about an hour and was suprised it didnt feel like a parachute on top of my head. Living in Florida, most dealers dont carry a large selection of helmets, and if they do, they are generally the less expensive ones.

 

I just looked it up. It doesn't even have a zip out neck curtain! HJC

 

I just bought a HD Ecto Hybrid 1/2 helmet. It is so light I tend to forget that I even have it on. It fits much deeper than my Shoei St-Cruz 1/2. WARNING -- the sizes tend to run a wee bit small. I wear a large which is smaller than the Shoei large. It fits me well without excessive pressure points. Well worth the $200 bills. It doesn't have a neck curtain for cool/cold weather riding.
