Come on Bill, I have yet to see a full face that allows the range of vision that no helmet allows and the wind vs. helmet hearing level is arguable. I would say the full face allows better hearing than the 1/2 helmet I used to wear. The wind whipping through those wear flaps is deafening.



The average human has about 180 degrees of visibility, my flip face helmet allows for at least 220 degrees from my eye position wearing the helmet or about 20 degrees beyond the limits of the average human eyeball both left and right. Admittedly the up and down vision is a little more restricted but then, threats usually don't come from the fuel tank or the sky.

We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
