Default Full face helmet

I used my old full face helmet from my crotch rocket days for my ride this morning. It was 42 degrees and I was completely warm. Shouldn't have waited so long. Only complaint is I cant hear my bike as well as with the half-helmet.

Full face for winter and highway riding. I wear a Shoei 1/2 around town in the heat of summer.

I paid a whopping $89 for a full face helmet to wear in cold weather. Except for the occasional fogging, it's been warm and cozy.
