Agreed. I have the Licks NOV DOT 3/4 also, and it's a great helmet. Low profile and pretty comfortable. Not too expensive either.

+1 on the HJC Cruiser. My wife has one also and she loves it.

I wear a HJC 3/4. Bought it several years ago, so I don't know current prices. The HJC is comfortable, well made, and I don't look like the Great Kazoo.

I have a Shoei RJ-Platinum R and the HD version of an HJC IS-33 and like them both. Both are light, and comfortable. I have J&M comms (speakers and mic) installed on both and had no issues with the install.

I would recommend both of these. If you go to www.Revzilla.com, they have a bunch of helmet review and comparison videos. I found them helpful when I was shopping.
