So I'm thinking to max out the season (the season for me is when it snows) I need a new fullface helmet. What would be a good middle of the road helmet to buy. I don't want to break the bank but I don't want the visor to fly open when I look behind me like my $80 helmet did. Suggest away...

Thanks.

Warmer or colder climate the helmet is always necessary.Full face with a flip top is the best solution

The new Scorpion brand of helmets are a great, Snell approved bargain.

Try a few different brands of helmet and see what fits you best. I couldn't find any full-face helmets that fit me well until I tried a Shark helmet. Liked it immediately; I recommend it wholeheartedly if it fits you well. My S500 Air was around $175 or something like that.

Thanks to all who attended!

Do you keep one bullet left for yourself, for when it's all over and done?
