My wife and i both used to use novelty helmets but the word came down that N.Y. state was going to come down on those type of helmets so we got two new 1/2 outlaw helmets , we do not use them when we in a state that doesn't require a helmet , we are firm believers in it should be one's choice to do as one wants , not to be forced by others to comply to others wishes

I am on my second Fulmer 3/4. I find they are very comfortable and inexpensive. This new one has the best ventilation of any helmet I've ever had.

Plus One I CHOOSE to wear a helmet, regardless of wether or not the jurisdiction I am riding in mandates it.
For me, 1/2 summer 3/4 or full in the cooler months. Think about it..... go down with a helmet, very little chance of walking away..... no helmet no chance. I support the right to decide but for me, I have too much to live for to lessen my odds. Been riding for over 20 years and a LEO. Yes I have seen too many people DOA with helmets.... but it does still gives you an edge. Also, same goes for seat belts. Just my 2 cents.

Ride 100% of the time with a helmet (state law). I go between 3/4, 1/2 DOT and novelty half depending on weather and mood. I gave away the only FF that I owned -- really couldn't get comfortable with that thing.
