Default Helmet help...

Ok guys, I'm in the market for a new helmet. Prefer half helmet. Post your pics and info about them. Mine got ^@!#%^ up when that old dude backed into the bike and knocked it over. I know there are a million different styles, etc. But show me what you've got. I'd like something that will protect my melon.

Well, I'd say you need to first make up your mind whether you want max protection or the comfort of a 1/2 helmet. Ya can't have it both ways.

But just for grins & giggles until you decide, HERE's 596 choices and the best 1/2 isn't here. It's an ACC.

I have three Super SEER helmets. A 3/4 and a half in black with silver flames and a half in the two-tone Harley paint of my Road King Classic. The Adjustable Band Suspension interior is cooler in the hot weather than the Cushion Pad interior.
These are the most comfortable helmets I've ever worn.
