Re: Open face helmets
I have one of each. I use the 3/4 for my non-highway commute, usually on the GZ, never more than 50mph. I still wear the full face for everything else. I actually can see better out of the 3/4, especially checking for lane changes and blind spots. Plus less screwing with the glasses, and, can take my last sip of coffee with the gear on.
Once I get going I always have the face shield down. I've been hit in the face shield with all manner of things, from clumps of mud, to small stones, to large bugs, to tiny birds (or maybe it was a bat.) Lots of crap blowing around out here and lots of crap blowing off trucks.
