Ordered my Rockhard from MSS on Wed and got it Fri. The helmet looks great and seems to be well constructed. The fit seems to be perfect, but I really need to wear it for at least an hour or more to know for sure. My head measures 22 3/8 and I've tried the Bell 500, Fulmer V2 & the RH, the Bell was too tight in M & too loose in L, the cheek/side pads on the V2-M were too snug and the RH-M seems to be just right - it's a keeper. I'll post some pictures later.

Legit DOT ? Well that's for you to decide.

I really need to buy a new helmet. Even if Arkansas doesn't have a law I'm still planning on visiting the boarding states which do have a helmet law. I think I might try out the Rockhard 3/4 and maybe the outlaw. I would really like to order that helmet that Fab posted up, but its a little pricey for me on a beanie. But then again you get what you pay for

I recently purchased this (still in the mail) http://www.leatherup.com/p/Outlaw-He...met/97791.html

Does anyone have this helmet? Is it low profile compared to a novelty cap?

I'm asking this because everyone seems to talk about this specific helmet in this thread, http://www.leatherup.com/p/Outlaw-He...et/147798.html

Makes me wonder if I made the wrong purchase ha

You want the 2nd. Go through this thread, lots of pics. It definitely sits lower then "all" the dot 3/4's in this thread.
