Default Half helmet suggestions

have a full face I wear most of the time but looking for a second helmet. Like the styling of the militia style. Any recommendations?

I recently bought a Harley-Davidson J01 Laxity Pro Helmet SKU #97210 - 17VX. After 40 odd years of motorcycling this is my first foray into the 'half helmet world.' I am very pleased with the purchase and would highly recommend this to anyone else. It is as comfortable as hell and even at high speeds it does not try to lift off your head like many other half helmets have been reported to do.

My wife and I are both on our second Bell Pit Boss.

Excellent helmets!

Just my 2cents, but which ever brand you go with... Get a Hybrid, they are so much lighter...

I have an HD Lone Star helmet and love it. It's made by Bell by the way.

Check out Akoury Helmets @ https://akouryhelmets.com The smallest profile, lightest DOT helmets on the market that I know of. They make one that kinda resembles what some SWAT teams are wearing.

For a half helmet the Bell Pit Boss can't be beat.
