I use a HJC street helmet in the summer & it's great.In the winter I've got a Polaris ultra modular snowmobile helmet that is great.

I too, can say HJC makes a very good helmet - super comfortable. You might try Helmet City through a Google search - at least it'll give you a good idea of price ranges, etc. They have a sizing chart, too. Obviously you can find them at any motorcycle shop - bought mine at a Kawisaki dealer.

I like HJC and have picked several up from rockymountain. One thing about helmets, the fit is brand specific. Its all over the map. The safest way to check out a correct fit is to stop by a shop and try a few brands on. If you cant get a matching price, then on-line shop.

Remember, one manufacturer's XL is different than anothers XL

Ive got four inches of bone up top and need a XXL, HJC builds a big enough bucket for me.

Dot and Snell approved is a must.

Just make sure you don't go cheap on a helemt, ask yourself how much is your head worth?

As was mentioned, anything that is DOT and Snell approved should be good to go.
You can get some fairly inexpensive helmets that fit that category nowadays.

We have had GMAX and now have FLY...they are both good prices depending on where you shop.
MX Sales is where we got our FLY helmets and we really like them...snap out liners... and they were about $50-$60...but remember that every brand is different in sizing. Check sizing info if it is avail.
I think the other place is MotorcycleUSA.com, they have pretty good pricing too.

MX Sales
