My 2 cents...

The weather here is too hot for Full Face.. I must admit that the protection is there..

 

But seriously with that type of budget, I'd look at getting a good flip up full face helmet. That way you get the protection you get from full face plus you can flip up when stopping at traffic lights and when taking off/ putting on the helmet.. Easier for girls with long hair and glasses..

 

Cheers..

u'll use to it... I'm a specky too... manage my way don the glass etc. Just a additional harmless step.

Hot? I find it acceptable, just open the vent while you travel it provide ventilation to the interior. I'm wearing a OGK FF4... not the best but at least I'm covered. Our face worth the investment.

bike is a machine without soul, rider would inject new life and character to this machine

Chong Aik, GPR helmet, $28 buck and above for a new open face helmet.

 

Usually open face helmets starts from $25 onwards.

 

Go for a cheap one is you're getting an open face. No point getting an ex one since open face helmet isn't really for protection but more of for convenience. Go for FF if you wants to protect your head well.

i was also thinking whether should i get a new helmet cos my current OGK FF aeroblade has been with me since 2003 & its really getting kind of smelly no matter how much i washed the cheek cushion...

 

Should i change? But the exterior of the helmet is ok, no accident at all.

If you are intent on getting an open face helmet for around that price, you can look at HJC FS-3, which I bought for my wife a couple of months ago. It is listed for $180.

 

Then again, if you are serious about protection, a full face helmet is a must. I started using full face helmets many years ago and I never looked back. You will get used to it, and it is not much warmer than an open face helmet if you get a good model. Plus it blocks out more wind noise. The only reason I bought the FS-3 for my wife is because she is slightly claustrophobic and could not stand wearing an Arai full face for more than a few minutes.

my gf got similiar issue, but she is fine with wearing flip up, so i bought her a flip up..
