I've had a number of different helmets, almost all full-face. Over the past several years I've been very happy with various Bell helmets. In particular, the RS-1 fits my head nicely, is relatively quiet and I enjoy the photo chromatic shield. A have a Bell Vortex that I wear on occasion because it allows me to wear my eyeglasses with relative comfort; something I can't do with the RS-1. The photo chromatic shield fits both the RS-1 and the Vortex, which is nice. But the Vortex is on the loud side. And until I had a seamstress re-sew the interior liner, it would leave a lasting impression on my forehead. The Bell Bullitt is also on the loud side but is quite comfortable and accommodates my eyeglasses the best out of the full-face helmets I own. The field of view from the Bullitt is great. I recently purchased and have been wearing a Biltwell Bonanza 3/4 helmet which I'm enjoying. It's incredibly light and the airflow is something that took some getting used to. I'm using a straight face shield with it.
