Thinking about getting some open face helmets for my wife and I. A buddy has the Arai SZ ram 3 and likes it alot, but kinda pricey. I recently picked up a Bell Mag 8, nice looking but not to comfortable and the visor causes serious wind lift. I have been looking at the Nolan N42 and am wondering if anybody has one and would be interested in a review.

I have been riding with one for over a year (depends on the weather). Decent enough for the price, but probably no comparison to the Arai in terms of comfort and protection. I do like the second tinted visor, but in my opinion it doesn't drop down low enough.

Supertoon, PM me any specific questions...

The wife and I have the HD Ultra Jet helmets for our two up days. Nice peripheral vision, light weight, nice flip up shield, vented. It is made by KBC. I like it for slow days.

Try the Schuberth J1. It's an excellent open faced helmet.
