I have a Shoei RF1000 Full face and am a big believer in helmets period. But as a cyclist as well I've learned to appreciate the small helmet, particuarly in the Texas 100 degree heat in the summer. A couple of years ago while on the road I tried one on and they were the most comfortable thing I put on my head. But yea they are just as pricey as H#$@!
Just wanted to see if anyone had practical use with one of these, and what they thought.

If you are a big believer in helmets don't buy the Davida classic. It's not DOT, it's just for looks in my opinion. Check out the Classic Jet and Speedster helmets instead. They look cool plus offer way more protection than the pudding bowl style.
Here's a thread about the HCI Davida knockoffs. Hell of alot cheaper and DOT approved. http://www.triumphrat.net/helmets/76...ghlight=davida

I have a Davida...its nice. Though i rarely use it. i dont want it to get scratched. The HCI are a good sub.
