RE: full face helmets
I've never had a full face helmet feel like it is coming off.
 \\;
I've got a KBC and Arai Vector. I would recommend either but prefer the Arai, its lighter and fits better. You should always try them on at a store before you buy as they are all shaped differently. Arai even makes different models for differently shaped heads.

One helmet that has gotten great reports is the Caberg Justissimo, its a modular with an internal flip down sun visor.

RE: full face helmets
Just bought a Scorpion Exo 400 for $160, Matte black. \\; They run a size small, so keep that in mind if you get one. \\; Haven't used it yet so no personal review, but I have only heard good things such as it is a good bang for the $$$$

RE: full face helmets
I have an HD full face made by KBC. \\; It was a bit pricey ($250), but fit real nice and is pretty quiet. \\; Never had a problem with it pulling like my half does. \\; Doesn't vent as well as I might like, I hear really good things about the Scorpion EX-700s too.

RE: full face helmets
I have to agree with this..I love my HJC CL! I have it in flat black and it looks cool too. Very comfy, and you can take the liner out to wash it when it gets stinky....the best helmet under $200 for sure. I paid $120 for mine. You can also lock the face sheild so it doesn't fly open when you don't want it to. The only down side is it is very noisy compared to more expensive helmets, but I am not willing to shell out $400-$600 for quiet comfort...

I use the HJC CL-Max which I absolutely love. \\\\\\; The face pivots up and it's great at traffic lights when you want to breathe for a couple seconds. \\\\\\; It's $150 but it's worth it to save your head :-D

RE: full face helmets
I have an HJC SyMax, which is a modular helmet. \\; I \\; love it. \\; The only downside is that is sometimes whistles in the wind near the joints where the front flips up. \\;I don't find the whistling annoying, and I'm pleased with everything else about the helmet. \\; HJC recently came out with the SyMax II, which has an internal flip-down sunvisor that you can control while wearing the helmet in the closed position. \\; That'll probably be my next helmet when it comes time to replace the one I have.

RE: full face helmets
I have a HD modular helmets. It dose fine at those speeds. Your neck musscels will build up in no time. I would say how ever. I paid 275 for mine. Save your money and gett something cheaper. Most of the time I'm riding with it cracked anyways.
