Just a poll to see what are the most popular helmet types.

I wear full-face and sometimes a 3/4.

Full face 99.6%: scorpion exo 500, shoei quest, speed and strength

other 0.4%, I wear a German half helmet when I go around the corner to the park less than a mile.

Nolan N103 with a Sena headset. I plan on picking up a Bell Mag 9 Sena over the winter and see how that works out for the hotter weather.

I prefer 3/4 or modular but I have limited choices since I take a 4x in most brands and very few make that size LOL :yes:

I have worn full face helmets all of my life and they have saved it twice. In 2010 I bought a new BMW R1200GS and had to order a new helmet. It took about a week and during that time I wore a 3/4 helmet I had for cars. I loved wearing it and now go about 50/50. I'm about to get a Shoei J-Cruise 3/4 with a face shield and a built in tinted drop down. That will become my primary.

I'm in the market for a new modular helmet and am looking at the Shoei Neotech. For those of you wearing one, how do you like it? Is it pretty quiet?

GMAX modular. During warm weather I take the lifted lid off and it's a functional half helmet with sun visor and full face shield. 2 screws and it's converted.

HJC IS-MAX Modular...
Sadly; it's not my favorite... it's a creaky, noisy little bugger!

Anything would be better than THIS!!! :yikes:

My co-worker has a Neotec.

I have a Shoei GT-Air. I like the full-face because I my my sena and mouthpiece setup where I like it. I would have to do a different configuration with a modular.

Id prefer a modular but will stick with a full face until Arai or Shoei come up with a Snell rated modular. They are both working on them. Won't give up protection for the feature. Love my full face Arai, very comfortable.

Shoei RF-1100 99% of the time. When I ride in a parade I wear a Scorpion half helmet. As soon as the parade is over I'm back to the Shoei.

Neo-Tec most of the time, but sometimes a Nolan 42, and rarely, an AFX half.

Schuberth has the quitest rated also litest, and most air through it. Hard to beat hits on all 3most popular points

Everyone's head is shaped differently, so what is god for one person may not be good for another. I wear a modular Nolan N-104. It is the most comfortable helmet I've ever had. I can spend eleven or 12 hours on a long ride and it is still comfortable to me.

Arai Defiant. Great helmet, Snell Certified, great ventilation, and because it is Diamond White, it matches the motorcycle and reflects heat! Even on the hottest days, as long as I am moving I am cool as a cucumber in this helmet!:yes:

If I'm reading this correctly; there are at least a couple of modular helmets out there that make the grade. :thumbup: If you check on modular helmets; LS2 and Zeus have Snell rated modular right now.

Those two helmets met the 2010 criteria but not the 2015 criteria! So they no longer carry the Snell Certification!

Always full face on my bike and spyder. I wear a Torc T12B that has built in blue tooth for music, GPS and rider to rider and the built in drop down sun visor all of which i love to the point i cant imagine riding without it them. Cost around 150$ including the bluetooth and is DOT and ECE approved. They have new models i saw, T14B that look even a little better, think they have modular too.
