+Dot, Snell, light, easy on-off visor, quiet.
+Inexpensive for snell.
+Does fine in cold and rain after some no fog and rain-x.  Easy on off visor helps with application.
-Tight on the jaw.
Visor has only 4 position adjustments, closed and cracked are fine
-Whistles with visor fully open,
--vision impaired with visor half way open.

+++++My wife said I look like a storm trooper!

This one is my Normal helmet when on the Gs the other is when I'm riding pillion on my friend's shadow. I don't like it at all though although it is a small I feel like a bobble head doll!

My Shoei, cheapest but works, I plan to do a "spatter" look in a dark blue that matches the bike to one that matches my jacket, probably from the back of the helmet towards the front, so it will be blue in the back and have a gradation into the original black. I am kind of wanting to keep the color shifting front decal. Those are my gloves inside.

My hubby's Scorpion Exo, finally got him to get rid of all the helmets that "came with" his previous motos, got him a new one that FITS for his birthday, matches his DR650 and his Rasp jacket, and his gloves, which are inside.

My Fox helmet that replaced the one that cracked in 3 pieces when I crashed head first into a concrete wall on the side of a cliff last summer, that let me walk away (though bleeding, but not from my ears!). It has great venting and an adjustable inner liner that locks it on. Plus a neat icy camo look, and better protection to the occipital area of the skull.

Hrrm that looks suspiciously like my helmet...

@BeerGarage: Some of the HJC helmets have replaceable cheek pads that you can get in various thicknesses.  Mine does, and I've debated whether to get some looser ones...
