  • Probably best to go full face with an internal visor. If you're on a budget avoid flip ups. I only really know the older brands like Arai & Shoei, I've had a few Roof lids and really liked the fit although you hear the bike a lot more (which is good sometimes).

    If your forehead fits in a Schuberth they seem like great helmets, they have just made one with a bit more forehead space. Personally I like Arai for comfort but I've got a Shoei at the moment, it's taken a long time for the cheek pads to give a little. All the other cheaper brands I've bought I've stopped wearing them after a few months, they usually get baggy or the interior cloth doesn't wear well, they are generally a lot noisier too.

    I've had to throw out my 10 year old expensive helmets although I'd still have worn them, you shouldn't keep them forever as the material degrades. They've always been the best bang for buck though. First one was the bottom of the range Arai, saw me through all kinds of riding and never bothered me.
