ORIGINAL: SPECIAL ED

what's wrong with getting a real full face helmet that actually works.
they're about 1000º in there and look gay on a cruiser!

The only drawbacks on a Full face are they are damn hot out here in the desert and you lose&nbsp\\;some peripheral vision. The benefits are women can't tell how old you really are, Coke cans, that some bone head tossed out of his SUV, don't make contact with your face. I'll stick with my extended Half

Does the extended half sit lower than the HD halfs or about the same?

$175 is cheap for a decent DOT motorcycle helmet!
