    name this lid...

    What do you call this kind of helmet? other than suicide.

    I heard it referred to as the "Extended Half" but had no luck tracking one down for a reasonable price... and no it doesn't have to be carbon.

    We used to buy tons of the Daytona Helmets 1/2 shells at Windmill. I have at least 3... great helmets for little money.

    By the way... the non DOT 1/2 shells are categorized as "Novelty Helmets" Basic Colors Novelty

    Thats what I am looking for but with out the 2 1/2 inches of foam that makes it stick up off of your head.

    I want it to sit like that guys.

    sounds like "novelty" is what I will look for.

    That would be PiMp, especially for those unexpected cagers doing U-turns in front of you, won't leave as big a hole in their windshield with that cap (not big enough to categorize as a lid).

    Hell no, I was thinking night time only lid. This being that much smaller would be a lot easier to handle when your stumbling drunk staggering through the bar parking lot, whereas a full face keeps that alcohol smell inside the visor and can really get you in trouble

    Do a search for novelty helmets. THats what it is..no padding and NOT DOT. I have a half German real carbon NOVELTY helmet Actualy one for me and one for the wife. I know I know...but we use them out cruising around or going to dinner type riding. Heavy...got them for thing $35 bucks.
    I was freaked out the 1st time I used it, being open face and all. BUT I love it....my vision is open so much more. Will NOT get on the highway with it thu. Think its horrible with speeds over 55mph.
    I dont dress for the crash....I dress for the ride.

    That first link is on the money, but way to pricey.

    The second link has what I need for a good price as long as its not full of padding on the inside, EZ Rider 230 Matte Black Novelty Helmet

    But Im having second thoughts about buying from a random on line store.

    Thats where Scala rider Q2 team set comes in FTW. You can talk, listen to music via bluetooth or cabled MP3, hear your turn-by Nav set, and answer calls. All that, without the lipstick
