BTW, has anyone tried a Daytona brand helmet? They seem to have a pretty good selection at decent prices.
I've got a Daytona half. It's decent and fits well.
The D-rings are thicker than most on other helmets and aren't offset so can be tough to separate at times. I put a piece of nylon neck strap on the inside D-ring to make it easy to grab.
No snaps on the front of mine for visor but that is available on some.
No snap for the excess helmet strap so ya just have to tuck it in to the strap so it doesn't blow in the wind.
The finish seems to be pretty good on it. The rubber around the bottom looks to be pretty well affixed and the inner liner is in there. Not removable by the way, at least I haven't tried to remove it yet.
Make sure you get the right fit no matter what. I wore an XL for several years then went to a sizing chart and measured my head and found I should be wearing a L. Bought one and it was tight at first but it's broken in and doesn't move around on my head like the XL always did.
Check out the Nolan Supercruise half helmet. It has state of the art protection that is actually superior to some more expensive helmets, yet is very light and comfortable. It has nice features like a removable/washable liner, padded and removable neck guard and a microlock chin strap which is better than any chinstrap system I've ever seen. It is better than my Seer police helmet at half the cost.
The Supercruise goes for about $180 on motorcyclesuperstore.com
