From: Joyce on 7 Aug 2010 13:23 Has anyone done a study on the affect the color of a helmet has on appearance? For example, do white helmets appear smaller than black? I'm asking because a lot of helmets on me appear to be bulbous, and I want to get a helmet that seems as streamlined as possible. I'm looking at open -faced or 3/4 helmets.

I'm > looking at open -faced or 3/4 helmets. I have done a study on open faced and 3/4 helmets. My conclusions are that I would be dead if I wore one back in 2001. Full face is the only helmet that offers the protection to save your head AND face in the event of catastrophe. -- Andrew 00 Daytona 00 Speed Triple 05 Squiddo
