Open Face Crash

[lola_imp]

Always wore Full Faced helmets but When I got The CB1100 the thought Of getting me a opened faced helmet crossed my mind almost every time. I guess its because of all these advertisements of honda on the CB1100 and the rider riding through the open road looking all cool with his open face, ah freedom... It's ok to be cautious however to me an open face helmet is like driving a convertible car versus driving a car with a sun roof, Which you get more roll over protection with the latter . I still want to feel how it is to ride with a open face until I found a compromise which is the New Bell Bullit helmet. It has a Huge Eye Port almost like an open face but has a thin/Narrow chin bar with an option of a regular or bubble Visor. It is I believe Snell and Dot Certified maybe ECE? but Unfortunately it is still on back order and is pretty expensive. But if I had enough Coin to spend I would definitely consider the Bell Bullit.

Here is video / benefit of riding with a full face.
