Modular helmets

[RT Performance]

Who has one they like?
I want a module helmet but dont want to sacrfice the chin bar needs to work.
I seen one at my Buell dealer that the chin bar actully has a spot it lock on the back when open.
I have done the slide for life and know the value of a chin bar. but i been stuck in traffic it would be nice to open the face take a drink or smoke while i wait to move.
So what do you have and is is good or bad?

This may help. They have done tons of helmet reviews. Includes pics and videos. http://www.webbikeworld.com/motorcycle-helmets/motorcycle-helmets.htm

I have a Shoei Multitec, it was pricey compared to some of the modulars I've seen($500). But it's the most comfortable helmet I've ever worn. I haven't tested it, thank god, so not able to comment on the chin bar safety.

Safety:
The Multitec sold in the U.S.A. meets U.S. DOT approval. The Multitec sold in Europe and the UK is claimed to meet ACU Gold and ECE 22.05 safety standards.

It does not look like it meets SNELL requirements though.
