FIT, FIT, FIT!!! No I'm not advocating having a fit. I'm saying that fit is the most important thing, assuming you're buying a certified helmet (Snell, DOT, etc.). It has to fit properly in order to protect you. Expensive or not expensive, its gotta fit properly. Ed- if the helmet fits, wear it - Boyd

Nah, I have to disagree. Last week I saw the new Shuberth helemt, it's not worth the extra bucks over a Nolan N100. Sorry, more money does not mean better although motorcycle companies and accessory makers sure like those who think so. Gino, not a SNELL snob
