Hi,
I have a 2009 F650GS equipped with a taller Cee Bailey windshield that does allow wind around the helmet for ventilation.
I just finished a long trip with my 2 year old HJC full-face, and am fed up with the effort and pain of my glasses with this helmet. Taking pictures, toll booths, coffee, talking and especially taking on and off, then trying to get your glasses in there. Good luck...
I was looking into a good flip-up, as I've seen many wearing this style traveling.
My Beemer dealer showed me a Nolan and a Shoei, and the Shoei felt the best, but wind noise was continually stressed as a downside.
The sunscreen gadget on the Nolan looked nice, but I would be worried about gadgetry and parts loosening up after a year or so, as the dealer said it would.
I would like to hear from some wearers of both if you have the time.
It would be helpful if the respondent had a similar situation, that being that the helmet was always in the air stream, not hidden behind a full windshield.
Thanks for your time,
Robert
