Default Re: Would you wear a flip front helmet?

I use a yellow bmw system 5 . Its a lot heavier than the standard full face. I dont worry too much when filling up at stations and walking past security at work. Easier to wipe my nose in the winter. It is noisier too with more whistling. Not been in a crash before so cant comment on structural integrity. The flip models did come with an optional integrated bluetooth kit which drew me to them.

Its good for start stop and commute journeys.. I prefer my full face generally.
