I have 2 LS2 modular helmets, a FF386 for cooler weather and a Metro for warmer weather because of the increased airflow of this one makes it much better for hot weather.

I have a Scorpion AT 950 Modular helmet for cooler weather, and a Bell Pit Boss half helmet for warmer weather. Love them both. If you go full face go modular.

I've had an HJC half helmet for a number of years and have just switched to the Sena Cavalry half helmet. I've tried both full face as well as modular and just don't like them. Depending on weather and temperature/humidity either one would fog up my glasses. jmho wtfdik

Me- Sedici Sistema Modular Full Face. I had an HJC modular that I really liked, but wore it out... I like the enclosure and safety of full face, but LOVE being able to open the face for a drink or bit of breeze at the stoplights. You can also go into a convenience store without taking off your helmet!

Mine is a HJC IS-MAX 11, which is a flip front design with a sun shade built in and it fits nicely and is really comfortable

Lots of options out there. Best advice is to try them on locally to find out what fits best for you. Proper fit is most important if the need arises to use it for the intended purpose. Once you have the size, then you can shop for best price if your local dealer is way off.
I have gone from "full face" to "modular" these days. The "safety" factor is a choice we all must make for ourselves.
Linda cannot go for the claustrophobic full face stuff--so it was a done deal to go modular for her.
We have six assorted Nolan's currently. See Baja Ron, a vendor on SL.

The flip-down sun shield is priceless. Comfortable, quiet.
Mine is Hi-Viz yellow (go ahead; call me a geek next time you SEE me)

Arai Signet Q, because I have a long oval head shape.
I'd dearly like to find something that offers more breathability, perhaps a 3/4 helmet like an Arai CT-Z or Shoei J-Cruise, but I can't find any to look at (also, see: long oval head shape). As a compromise, my next helmet will likely be a Shoei Neotec.

Currently in rotation on my helmet shelf:
The Bell Qualifier DLX is my go to helmet, with the Suomys as backup, the Fly Trekker is my dual sport lid, though I have on occasion worn both yellow helmets on the yellow Spyder.

Wrong,have gotten pack of 45 rolls on back seat with no problem, and 4 paper bags of groceries !

My wife and I wear Scorpion EXO 250s. 3/4s with sun visor and clear over-visor. My wife can't stand a full face, too confining.

I wear a Shark Evoline 3, can be used as 3/4 or full face-love it. Dale
