That Bell Pit Boss or the Drifter are great helmets. They still have a little mushroom look to them, however, they have a great look to them, very different and original. There is no movement in the helmet once it's on, the chin strap doesn't even need to be tight.

I got one of these and really like it. With the sun shield up you do get the mushroom head, but with the sun shield down, you don't. The helmets in the links below are both the same helmet. The Harley version jacks up the price by $35 and gives you a bar and shield logo. The HJC has an annoying logo painted right on the forehead. I also have an Outlaw carbon fiber that I like. Good luck.
