Default helmet

No pics.. but I'm sportin a Bell "Custom 500" about as low profile as a Biltwell but DOT approved. I've got the Orange Flake... took off all the stickers. Pretty comfortable, lightweight, and allows me to hear my tunes with even less noise while allowing me to still hear to what I need to... Not to mention it just goes with my bike... Old skool bobber - ish...

I have a Cyber that has a DOT sticker on it. No pictures, but one thing I have found is, don't wear the little snap on bill that goes on it. It causes major buffeting with a windshield, and tries to pull off your helmet without the windshield. I have been wearing this same type of helmet for years, and I like them.

I ave a Fulmer V2 but have not worn it in nearly a year. I like my half helmet too much. Maybe if it gets really cold I'll break it out, but i doubt it.
