Just bought a new Full Face Helmet Bell Star Carbon
So I just bought a new full face helmet... After several positive reviews I have pulled the trigger on the New Bell Star Matte Carbon Helmet...
The helmet is love at first sight... Such a bitchen looking lid, and the carbon fiber is amazing...
I know many of the touring guys don't dig the full face but I changed my mind a few years back when I got T-boned in the middle of an intersection and my chin hit the ground and dragged a few feet... Nonetheless, it was not a good feeling.
Once I ride with it more I will post a more personal review as far as weight and ventilation etc.
But right now I am just amazed with how it looks!!!

I've got that exact same helmet. I've had it for about a year and love it, I also have the transitions face shield that adapts to the light condition outside and it's awesome. Helmet goes great with my denim black SGS.

How do you guys buy helmets, I don't wanna buy online without trying it on but so few places around that actually have a good selection of helmets in stock. Bought a Harley helmet last time and leaning towards another ONLY because it's in stock and I tried it on.

+1 on requesting some review info. Does it have a removable or adjustable interior pads? Ventilation good? Lighter weight?
I'm currently using a Neotec. Cheek pads are available in 3 sizes and the whole interior padding is removable, replaceable, washable.
