#100127 PapaTom (Moderator) I said 4 quarts. Moderator Posts: 3178 Half helmets question 3 Years, 10 Months ago   Utah doesn't require helmets for old geezers like me, but I feel better wearing one (lots of college kids, retired folks around here). Plus my wife feels a LOT better if I wear one. It's too hot to wear a 3/4 helmet and my old half helmet looks like a mushroom on top of my noggin. I know there are lower profile halves like ACC, HCI, Vega, etc. I just thought I'd ask what brands y'all wear for half (shorty) helmets.   Logged     FREE SPIRIT 2007 Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #100129 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:Half helmets question 3 Years, 10 Months ago   I don't own one but I have worn one. It felt real good. For a helmet I've read lots of good things about them.

Moderator Posts: 12511 Re:Half helmets question 3 Years, 10 Months ago   It's so hot here I wear a mesh ball cap in the summer. As it get cooler I have an HJC half that I wear and in cold weather I have an HJC 3/4 that I wear. I have the same thing for the wife except for the ball cap she has to much hair for that and wouldn't be able to keep it on.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #100134 Moondog (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 375 Re:Half helmets question 3 Years, 10 Months ago   I wear a Bell half helmet when I wear a half helmet. Most of the time I wear a HJC modular or a Shoei fullface so I can attach the Intercom to talk with the wife.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 2132 Re:Half helmets question 3 Years, 10 Months ago   My wife and I when we are forced to wear a helmet wear the HJC bennie style helmets. Let me ask this, Has anyone ever hooked up the 2 way communication wearing a beanie style helmet??? Unlike TBA Stormin I like talking to my wife while riding, makes the long distance rides go by faster.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #100140 thumpertattoo (User) Thumpertattoo Junior Boarder Posts: 152 Re:Half helmets question 3 Years, 10 Months ago   I wear a half helmet from head trip or acc or carbonfiberhelmet.com which ever one you want to call them it is a Kevlar/carbon fiber composite.

Moderator Posts: 6997 Re:Half helmets question 3 Years, 10 Months ago   Mine is a HCI polo style DOT approved 1/2 , and I love it. Real carbon fiber , light enough , but still designed to take a whack if needed, and best of all won't "lift". That was a guarantee they made when I bought it. Said if it did , they would buy it back. I run with no W/S a lot , tested their promise that night , 85-90 on the Interstate , with no pull. Put a ton of miles on it now , will buy another one when I need it.

I aslo have a 3/4 HJC d.o.t approved. I used to get a headache with HJC after about a 1.5hr of riding on a hot day with the lighter cooler Daytona helmet I don't have anymore headaches.   Logged     DColey   The administrator has disabled public write access.
