lets see....hows this

and this...




the top one looks soooo motor cross....no? I want a closed face but w/ this "open" face design. I am not considering any other hats.......so between these two...waddyasay?




AND.....I am thinking of the top pic (newer version) w/ the bottom (older) visor......just found out they are interchangeable...this may be the ticket. I do like the lower(older one) though.....it just seems less motorcycle ish.

my fav has always been the bandit (i think thats what its called)

They look the same to me. Or am I missing something?

I have a Pyrotect. I opted for the open face model after trying a few on.
I like it. It is a Bell design, made by their Chinese affiliate.

I recommend trying on a few in person. And don't go too cheap. It is your melon you are protecting.

man you guys are quick....



I was trying to edit post, as second pic was SUPPOSED to be the newer version....but it wont load. I like the open face look as these are, but damn second pic wont load up...oh well.

I have a skinny neck, therefore the lighter the helmet, the better for me.

I've got a SA2000 Pyrotect, as well. Can't beat it for $200. Mine's closed face, BTW.

I have some piece-of-crap Bell I bought from a guy off the forum :razz:

dont use a M helmet in place of an SA helmet. nevar. go try on helmets. you could be a bell head or a simpson head.

i have a g-force sa2000 full face, but if i had a few more bucks to blow, arai gp5k all the way.

I have an inexpensive open face motorcycle helmet (HJC, M2000). it's no full face snell, but it's more than enough for autox and the occasional DE. and it sure as hell beats having to use the loaner helmets..

i got some random arai full face from a frend who has too many moto helmets...its pretty nice though, light weight...

Arai's are VERY nice. Between those 2 Bell's I would just get whichever one is cheaper or whichever one is 2005 rated. Also, DO NOT buy an M rated helmet. I did for my first event because it was cheaper but ended up having to buy another one because some clubs require SA rated. The two you are showing in the pics will both be great helmets. I vote for the second one.
