walmart sells BELL helmets..

Scorpion EXo700 is the most comfortable for me and the quietest

KBC VR-2 Is best vented, a little noisy but nothing terrible. Great for daily drive

KBC FFR Flip-up Helmet, Padding after 2 years is basically hard as rock, noisy has heck, but I can smoke cigarettes in 20MPH Traffic :) <rarely use it now... was thinking of getting new padding for it...>

Icon Alliance SS : Nice helmet, poor ventilation, great winter riding helmet (keep shead warm) not very noisy.

My suggestion is check the Scorpion EX-700 or if your thinking of double lenses (smoke glasses) to check out the EXO-1000 as well.

Cheers
