I grew up riding with Shoei's. Now that Im older I usually wear a helmet but not always. I have to wear a helmet when I ride the 65mi to work because I work on base and its the rule.

I currently wear a Joe Rocket Carbon Fiber rkt101, it's light and comfortable, but noisy as all hell, and as I sit on the BA the vents dont work, and the up flow from the chin bar causes my eyes to water.

My buddy that owns a local shop pointed out that some helmets are designed for sportbikes due to the curve of their shell, and he's correct that when I tip my head down like i was on a sport bike this helmet is quieter and the vents work great.

So what do you wear, and how do you like it, and does anyone know how to select a good helmet for a crusier?

I have to buy something else and before I go back to a $600 Shoei I'd like to hear what yall have to say!

Thanks
