I know this has been debated to death, but perhaps someone knows where I can get a good deal on an extra large helmet as well as recommend one that is comfortable while wearing glasses.  I've got $200 max to spend.  Thanks,  BDC

I personally have an HJC modular (flip front) helmet.  I got it on sale at a motorcycle show during the off season and was about $170 with all the taxes.

Other makes are KBC and Nolan.
Keep it upright and she'll always be happy!

I have a Caberg J1 PLUS, which I use with glasses and find comfortable.
I got it just before they came out with the flip down sun visor which would be handy.

I think  i have the same helmet after they had the flip down. Quite cool.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!
