Ok mag half face helmet basta DOT certified din. Mas nagagamit ko nga yung half face ko na HJC CL-22 than my HJC CL-15. Mas magaang ang half face compare sa full face kaso mas malamig sa ulo yung full face ko kasi meron syan 4 way ventilation.

Parang mas malamig nga ang fullface,kasi ung fullface ko n ARAI malamig,ung zeus ko n hlf face pawis ang ulo ko kaya m init xa..

correct me if i'm wrong..

the helmet on the pic attached above is an "open-face" type helmet or three quarter shell helmets, it covers the top and back of the skull but not the face.. half-face helmets or "beanie" helmets covers only the top of the skull and usually doesn't cover the ears..

i used to wear open-face type helmets before, thinking that i only ride small bikes and will look good with an open-face type..but after someone i know smashed his face at the back of a van, breaking all of his teeth including a dislocated jaw, it scared me and i never used open-face type helmet again..

i don't remember the brand specifically..father kasi sya ng friend ko..just saw him a few times before the accident wearing a silver open-face helmet riding his scooter..tanong ko sa friend ko..kung naka full-face nga lang daw sana, baka hindi nabasag yung mukha sabi nya..

I would go with a modular helmet bro. this way you can open the front when you need a breath of freash air, drink or smoke a yosi!, and still be covered when your back in motion. all of the accidents I've seen is bikes being hit in front (being cut off, etc.) the riders in those accidents; their helmets are all scraped on the front, specially the mid-to lower half of it. Saved their life...more like their face:D anyway~ invest in some good gloves too...the ones with double padding on the palm area...remember during a fall it's human reaction to place your hand to cushion a fall.;)

i suggest ZEUS 666 kaysa 506

mas magaang, mas makapal at mas mahaba ang face shield

my comment on half face helmet:


for short distances and city driving,it's worth wearing compared to full face....[maaliwalas,less effort to wear]

i own a caberg downtown, the beauty of it is...it has a secondary tinted visor....

...aside from not needing a to wear any shades...it acts as a double protection to your eyes during moderate to severe accidents...

just imagine yung buong lens ng half face....eh puro wide clear lens...at kapag nabasag yan , malamang sandamak mak na jagged edge ang magpipiraso....some of it would hit you in the face....pero what if kung sa mata ka tinamaan??

[there was a thread about this 1 1/2 years ago...]

half face is fine by me....my major concern lang is yung plastic lens nya...it's worth using a secondary visor[clear or tinted] just for eye protection[ e.g. oakley m frames which i use]

for me mas feeling safe ako wearing a full face helmet kasi yung friend ng brother ko wearing a branded half face helmet driving in a crusing speed lang ng biglang may tumawid na bata yun semplang basag ang ilong at mga teeth nya kng full face yun siguro di ganun ka grabe yun

Mas safe talaga ang full face helmet...pero yun nga, we sometimes also have to consider comfort...

...95 percent of head-on collisions laging chin and face ng rider ang nadidisgrasya...so if you're wearing a half-face helmet try to crash instinctively with your head...pero ang hirap naman ata nun...

maganda rin sa full faced helmet ay pwede mung ikandado sa motor mo lalo nat mamahalin ang helmet mo pwede mung ipasok yung cable sa loob at itali sa arm rest or any part of the bike yung kandado.

iba-iba kasi ang preference ng mga riders....
i've even considered buying an open-face helmet for my backride several times...pero with a minimal difference sa price compared to a full face helmet...i bought a full face helmet for my backride as well...

I'm using Zeus 666 model. comfortable gamitin, yun nga lang malaki yung nabili ko (I should have bought large but I bought the XL size. when i fitted it it seems to fit snugly, not realizing luluwag sya pag matagal na) kaya ngayon i have to wear a bonnet para sumikip, and i'm offering it to someone na gustong makipag-trade to large size. (OT na)

Btw, modular helmet ba? try this one: http://www.motostrano-store.com/agvmomihe.html

I bought Zeus half face helmet last month sa Motoworld MOA....P1800 ang bili ko....Ok rin naman sya gamitin kc mas presko kaya lang medyo bagal lang takbo para iwas aksidente...Tska gamit ko lang sya pag lapit lang pupuntahan....full face gamit ko pag long rides para mas safe...

Folks theres always a Pros & Cons to everything. Do your OWN homework before hand. Dont use our opinions to justify your own judgement... Compiling opinions IS ok but bottomline is that its still up to you to make the right choice.

Mahirap na kasi... Consensya pa namin pag it turns out not what you have expected based on all of our feedbaks. Personally, I dont mind owning one, but I settled for my KBC Modular because Im more at ease knowing that there's something protecting my chin...

Oh, di noh. Sensya nah if it came out that way. :banana:

In fairness naman, for me nakakatakot gumamit ng gear na alam mo na alanganin eh. If it'll do its job pag may mangyari na di natin maiwasan diba?

Id say, if one has to spend a tad more to be able to be protected, why not diba? Yor face is your asset, protect it everyway possible. :clap:
