I don't know what a helment is...

Always wear a helmet no matter what the weather.

AGV K4 EVO. I figure if AGV is good enough for Agostini and Rossi,  it certainly is good enough for me. Good compromise between cost and function.  Best fit I could find for my head.

I like Bell.  I have a Bell Star, Bell RS-1, and Bell Vortex.  They all share the same face shields and I have a Transition shield which is great for commuting since I start out my day in the dark, but want protection from the sun.

The Star is their top of the line and is in the $600 range.

The RS-1 is in the $400 range.

The Vortex is in the $200 range.

I just picked up the RS-1 in High Viz for $179 delivered from www.ridersdiscount.com  You can go to www.webbikeworld.com for helmet comparisons.

Shoei Neotec

Great helmet, would never buy a helmet without integrated shades again. That being said, I find my old XR-1000 quieter. Hence, the next one will be that neat Shoei GT   8)

I have the new C3 PRO in Flat Black.  Seems to be a fantastic helmet but "on the fence undecided" whether its worth $700 or not.  Very quietest helmet that can be bought and I like it thus far on the C14

I have a blue HJC carbon fiber helmet. A nice match to the 2010 C-14.

Depends. Large Quest (silver) for when it's cold enough for a balaclava, Neotech, GT Air, Quest (md) Depends on which jacket I choose too. I have several more helmets in a closet but I haven't had any of them on in a couple years.  ::)

Love my ARAI from the time I bought my first one 12 years ago and I still have it. My current ARAI is a RX-Q in Diamond Blue, nearly matches my 2010 1400GTR.

Arai Signet-Q because my head is shaped like an egg.
Seriously though, if you get hot spots (red spot on your forehead) on your head after a long ride, look into oval shaped helmets.

That's it, when I used to wear my HJC, that's what I looked like.
