Maybe someone here can answer this about helmets
I prefer the full face street type helmet with a face shield. This is the type I had when dirt track racing and what I currently wear while riding the Raptor. It has peel off tabs so I could easily put on a few peel offs and keep a clean viewing area. The problem is I feel like a *geek* when everyone else has Off-Road helmets and goggles. Is there a reason other than looks for the 2 different types of helmets. The reason I like the full face street is it does not let debris hit my face and I do not have the problem with goggles moving around. If I need air my helmet has a multi position shield so I can crack it a little. I also have scalp and chin vents.
Your comments please.

Hey,
my head measures like 22.25", which for most brands seems to be a medium. so i stopped my the local yamaha dealer today to try on some helmets there. they carry fulmer helmets. but for those helmets, i couldn't get my head into a medium, the large fit better. anybody know if fulmer helmets just run smaller than others?
i found this helmet on DK. DOT, Snell 2000, removable liner, $60. any comments?
thanks,
bigmac
PS: i need the 4 bolts that hold the rear brake rotor on. anybody know if i can buy these cheaply at the dealer, or if not, what i should get from a hardware store?
