I've just bought a motocross style helmet to match my bike. I've just tried it out after switching from a full face sports style. I wanted to change because I wanted a helmet that would match my bike, also I was sick of the visor steaming up all the time.

Straight away I noticed the wind catching under the peak and lifting my head. I also noticed the goggles I bought (ones that match the helmet) dig into me and are n't that comfortable. The helmet is the right size as well, so it's not too big or too small. I have place the goggles on the outside of the helmet, I'm sure thats the proper way.

So you wouldn't recommend one then?

Now I'm using an Airoh S4 (Italy), it works like an Enduro (little heavier), or race or like the Uvex shown above. The S4 is perfect when you want to eat butterflies in summer at 70 miles/hour... :hah:

Nice, I really like the style of those helmets. I have got used to my traditional moto-x one now though. I bought a mask that covers the lower half of my face, my mouth and nose and it's sorted all the problems out.

It was the rain that starting pissing me off with an mx lid, stings like f*ck

I ended up with a new helmet as i started doing more road work than green laning. A visor on the road is so much nicer.

I switched from a full face to my crosser and at first I didn't like it at all. It was uncomfortable and distracting, now i'm used to it and I love it. My new mirror lens goggles came today and they look ace. I just cant wear them at night. I think I will try one of those like yours when I have to replace mine.
