There was a link to an earlier post where kmoney posted a picture of a Bell custom 500 rsd. I really liked it. Checking it out I saw the "check it" version, for half the price and bought it. I would prefer no helmet riding, always loved the wind, but if I have to wear a helmet this is the one!

I absolutely love the looks of this helmet but im always jumping on the highway and the wind blast and bugs plus rocks hitting me in the face just isnt fun. I know you can get a shield but i like to be able to raise it if need be so i either use my 3/4 with a shield that lifts or a full face.

Compared to my previous half helmets I feel completely enclosed. True, rocks are pretty bad but bugs are just part of the trade off. I just love the wind on my face to much to give it up. On a long ride I'll take a snap on with me just in case of rain or gravel roads.
