Looks like a Biltwell Gringo with hinges. I'm sure some Harleybots will buy it.

Nope.

Yup, that's the Bell Bullit. I happen to like its retro look but not for that price. I'd go with the much less Biltwell Gringo instead. I think it's better looking too.

Jeez... so much hate!<G> Personally, I kinda like the look, and I'm in the market for a new helmet -- but only want a modular.

Big NOPE on many fronts. Price, style, no need for that helmet and retro look.
