Do you know if the chin guard can be completely removed to make it a 3/4th helmet, and put it back on when in need? Just investigating possibilities. Helmet in question is a Gmax 54s.

Not sure about the GMax, but the Scorpion EXO 900 has this options. I think a few others do also (Shark maybe).

I see two phillip type plastic screws that holds the Chin bar. It appears to pivot on those when lifted up and down. But before I try to unscrew them, thought I ask here first.

I just purchased a Shark Evoline 2 ST about a week ago specifically for it's convertibility. I looked at the Shark and the Scorpion EXO-900, but chose the Shark for two reasons. First, you can ride at any speed with the chin bar up/open without getting the air-dam effect that you get with any other modular on the market. Second, you don't need to remove/add parts on the Shark to go from full-face modular to 3/4 open face - Just flup the chin bar back and snap it in the rear lock position and away you go. However, I will not that you don't want to try going from open face to closed while moving as the detent locking the chin bar in the rear position is a good one and it takes some effort to pop it loose to rotate it forward.

Nolan N43 Trilogy Motorrad Helmet has a chin guard that detaches easily. Face shield with only full up or full down, chen vent.
I have one coming in to try. Not a true Modular as in the 103, but close.
Check out some helmet web sites to take a look, or go to Nolan's home page. EZ to find.
