Default Which helmet for the winter season.

Which helmet would recommend during the winter months: full face, 3/4, or 1/2.
Thanks

I think you are in the wrong topic area. Might get better responces in the "Harley Davidson General Chat" Forum. This is a Florida group thread.

However, you offer 3 choices...I would think you will receive many answers regarding each. Plus, the question is so ambiguous, I'm thinking you may find many replies to be "not so pleasant"!

Full face because every idiot is down here with only themselves and their vacation on their mind.
It’s a great opportunity to get killed or at least they will try to.
I suppose it depends on where you’re at, it’s a big state.

It’s Fla! Don’t have to change helmets due to calendar days. Just wear what’s comfortable and provides protection.
However, if you are asking for your locale Md, then not sure as I have not ridden in Md as yet. Still think that comfortable and protective, but your comfort may be different from the responders. Think that Frank probably has given you the best afvice, looking at the replies so far.
