What helmet is this guy wearing?

Anyone know the make?

I am thinking of getting a full face helmet. I have a 3/4 daytona helmet, I feel like a bobble head when I go down the road.

im not sure what it is, but im pretty sure its an old dirbike helmet with the visor removed.

i plan on getting a nolan N44 when i can afford it. gives you the most versatility from one helmet, and doesnt impede peripheral vision, a big gripe of mine.

Yup. Bell Moto III. Cool helmet. I have owned a few. They suck at speeds above 30mph, and being 30 years old they provide no real crash protection but they look rad. There are a few sellers on EBay that sell repops, but they're no name Chinese made deals. I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that they are complete junk.
 
Keif, that's an awesome helmet right there!

I like the different way you can use it. And not too bad of a price there.

They are a cool looking helmet, but as has been said, don't do much in the way of protection. Here's another version, this one a New Zealand made version:

If you are looking for a cool vintage style yet affordable and DOT approved helmet, take a look at the old Safetech full-face helmets (if you can find one).

I love the thin front of these old helmets... similar to the new bell bullitt style but actually legit. vintage.

Loco Leon had quite a collection of vintage snap on face shields for open face helmet that had a similar look... might search out his older posts in this section
 
Check this guys Ebay site.
Has several vintage helmets and some like this one.

The blue helmet in the first post looks great!

I am a huge fan of full face because they are much safer. Its like wearing a seatbelt vs not wearing one.

Then this helmet looks liek it breathes good with the vent holes in the mouth. Also has a lot of good room in the mouth area which makes it less claustrophobic and stuff i presume.
 
A full gives way more protection than a half or 3/4 too. I bought a 3/4 helmet once and was so excited, cleaned fingerprints off and put a sticker on it. Admiring it.

Unil my first ride. In addition to the increased wind speed and aerodynamics. I felt so un safe. Like I was about to wreck and slide on my jawbone.

I really like these helmets, even though they're not DOT rated. They are apparently safety certified by the Thai government, whatever that means.

But they have a reproduction of a Bell Moto III type helmet
 
Here's a DOT approved similar-style helmet: http://4into1.com/dmd-racer-full-face-helmet-white/
