Full Face Helmets
I have a nice 3/4 helmet but am thinking of getting a bluetooth full face for longer rides, highways, etc. What are your thoughts on a decent helmet? Any thoughts on the Vega V-Tune.

We have a set of Nolan FFs...meh! So-so at best. I like the helmet, more for the modular than the comunications. I have trouble enough getting wifey to wear a helmet at all so it hard to get her to wear a FF.

My wife went without one in town, just to see what it felt like. I wasn't happy. But when it get hot, I may wear a half or none myself.
FF helmets look really hot to me. But I've seen some where the chin part flips up and if I got one, that's what I'd get. Most major helmet companies make them. I think HJC does, which is what I wear.

Worth it to take a look at the Shark modular.
It is the most flexible helmet I have ever used.
Normally ride in 3/4 mode with the chin bar flipped all the way around to the back of the helmet.
As speeds go up I bring down the face shield.
It needed the tinted sun shield can be used.
If it gets cold, buggy or I just want it quieter I swing over the chin bar.
It is set up for blue tooth, but I never use it.

I've always worn full face when going over 35mph. right now I have Nolan 104n and love it very much. have tasted cement before not something I ever want to do again. Love the bright yellow Nolan 104n. I tried bandanas and it just doesn't offer much protection when you need it most.
