i've always wore the fullface helments, wore a half shell once, it was actually kind of nice, do any of you guys wear one with the buell?
 
Ive got a KBC full face that I like to wear mostly. Every now and then I will wear a skull cap. I still think one of those is better than no helmet since there is no helmet law in SC.

My Osbe is basically a 3/4 with a rubber chin guard, it is great around town
and if I went down at a slow speed it will most likely save me from some major road rash on my face but I may still break my jaw. I would never go without the chin guard in a way it is a false safety even though I know it really won't do anything. Otherwise it is fullface all the time.

My list:
Bell Star is the highest quality (noisy though), Scorpion is the best all around, my Osbe is for around town (loud above 30mph), Icon is for cold weather (horrible air flow), HJC is a backup (fit is loose so never wear it)

Been using scorpion but after 3 got cut off my bike in 2 months i am trying prg as my neighbor swears by them and it was uber cheap. Ill let you know how it works when i get it otherwise im goin back to scorpion.
 
I went from a scorpion exo-750 to a shoei rf-1100 and the shoei being double the cost is well worth it in my opinion. its flows so much air compared to the scorpion and a million times quieter. also its more stable at speed and head checking the lanes.
 
Scorpion EXO-750 for me. Full face all the time. I just feel more protected that way. Got mine in Eternity Chameleon. Looks sweet.

I have a Shoei Qwest. Love it, Quiet and comfortable. I have a Icon Airframe but it was loud and hurt my head. It was too oval shaped.
 
geesh you guys are loaded! LOL I have just a little HJC helment
I'm a poor college student. I had an HJC but the visor wasnt sealing so I picked my Scorpion up online for 250 which wasnt much more then my HJC cost me.
