What helmet do you use on your Rocket?

Yeah, I know. When you said you were "still printing the ends for the predator so there are only 5 on at the moment" I thought these were home builds and was very impressed.

no I also have the predator breskener from them with the bearclaws at the ends, this time I was going for cones (more like the in the movie) and as they don't sell them I made my own and printed them in rubber 9Ninjaflex)
 
I have always used full face helmets for my 38 years of riding and could never understand why anyone would wear an open face, I guess this because I have always ridden sports bikes. I now use a Shark Evo One 2 modular on my GT and love it, I hardly ever use it with the chin bar in the closed position (unless it is raining or cold). I am totally converted.
 
I use an open face with a flip down visor for the majority of my riding unless rain is forecast, then I use a modular full face. I have been caught too many times where the rain gets behind the small face shield of the open face and onto my glasses effectively blinding me. The backside of the shield ends up full of water droplets and doesn't clear.

With a full face in the rain all is well especially with a pinlock. Minimal fog.

Supposedly one of the quietest helmets- way better than my Arai.

I fully agree. I am still using my old Schubert S1. Very quiet of course. So you increase rpm and speed almost 15 miles per hour to reach the same level of noise

Champion Helmets youtube channel tests and reviews helmet. Pretty nice page.
 
WOW. Guessing i do not get it at all. Some of the helmets posted may be the latest and greatest. GEEK is the only thing that comes to mind. Not trying to knock anybody but let's get real here. DOT is DOT period Approved. Kind of left with the impression that some like to brag about how much money they wasted on a helmet. Some folks will say my brains are not in my head but more than likely a bit lower down. Even so i can not understand spending so much money on a helmet.
 


Yeah, I too think a quality helmet would be a waste of money in your case.

Dude, you left yourself wide open for that one!
