I like HJC helmets for their fit and reasonable price.
I can afford more expensive helmets, but I'm not sure I would be getting much more for the additional cost.
I've only ever had one crash and ended up sliding on my face in an HJC flip-up.
The helmet was trashed, but held together; the flip-up did not disengage and the shield stayed in place. It saved me from some terrible injuries.
That was good enough for me, and as CA200 advises, I replace them about every 5-6 years - or sooner if they get shabby.
Can't stand wearing anything shabby
