Unfortunately, due to a theft last year, I now have to buy a new helmet. Do any of you have any recommendations on good helmets to buy? My only requirements are that it be affordable (<$120), provide good protection (ie, full face), and be comfortable on a highway ride without a fairing. My last helmet was a Kiwi (k9 or k10, I can't remember), that met all of the above requirements. I'm currently thinking of getting one again. What are your thoughts? If a lot of people write, I'll post results to the net. ihnp4!uw-beaver!tikal \ ihnp4!hplabs!hp-pcd !hplsla!dave David Dow Hewlett Packard
