Good looking lid. It appears to have decent venting and a removeable liner.

Wow big fan of the pinlock visor system, just came home in 2 degree's and snow/ice pellets and absolutely no fogging even sitting at the lights.

What a crazy bargin at $200!

I got one of these for about $13USD a while back.DOT approved.I Like it on the highway with aviator goggles. But not enough wind/sound protection for long trips

Weldangrind · 03-04-2011, 02:30 AM

DOT for $13.00? I believe that it has a decal that says DOT, but that doesn't mean anything.

katoranger · 03-04-2011, 08:43 AM

I would not feel safe with that.

FastDoc · 03-04-2011, 12:15 PM

Me neither.

A good (real) new DOT helmet can be had for $75 or so. Don't take chances.

katoranger · 03-04-2011, 12:56 PM

I prefer at least a 3/4 helmet. Full face is better yet.

FastDoc · 03-04-2011, 01:01 PM

I only wear full face. Comes in handy when you're sliding down the road on your face.

katoranger · 03-04-2011, 01:05 PM

Also keeps the birds out. Don't ask. I like the new modular ones.

Weldangrind · 03-04-2011, 02:10 PM

Having broken teeth, it's full face only for me.

katoranger · 03-04-2011, 02:12 PM

All I have is full face too. People pull those half helmets out and try to give them to me. I turn them down. Could feed the dog with it.

katoranger · 04-22-2011, 12:54 PM

Got a new/used ebay jacket.

Fieldsheer Mesh. It practically glows.

I don't know anything. I'm just sayin', I don't believe that a helmet is DOT approved, just because the sticker says so. Plenty of counterfeit stuff arrives on our shores. Fake NGK plugs is another example.

Good looking jacket, Allen. I firmly believe in ATGATT.
