Jet Fighter Helmet... in English

So I saw a guy riding around with a helmet similar to a pilot of a jet or helicopter might wear. I've found one that looks awesome http://news.motorbiker.org/blogs.nsf...yle-helmet.htm but don't speak the language of OBSE's site, also can't tell if it is DOT approved here in the states. So basically wondering if anyone knows of one with very similar style on a website in English thanks in advance.


Nvm, found them.

you can get the AGV Dragon for a hundred bucks but they suck, the wind comes under the visor at anything above 50 mph

Here's webbikeworlds opinion http://www.webbikeworld.com/r2/motor...met/nolan-n43/
And here's their video.



Anybody know where I can find one of these N43 Air helmets? I'm in the U.S.

Ooh, I think I prefer the Nolan, the airflow looks amazing. A bit cheaper as well.

Those are sweet helmets but unfortunately they are the American versions. Check out the N43 AIR version of this helmet and you'll be blown away. The difference is that the "AIR" helmet has a kind of honey comb exhaust on top that looks like it would really suck the air right through the helmet and cool you down. I read the end portion of the above webbikeworld link and it claimed there were 2 outfits that sell the "Air" version in the United States but so far I've been unable to get a response.

Hahaha...and you know it too... but your right damn it, yer right! They are silly but I like them. I want one. I think the fact that they are hard to get is what is getting to me. Does that make sense? I could start my own rock band if I had a helmet like that.
