Modular Helmets

Thinking of adding to my collection of hats. Had to ride into a blustery wind and my open face helmet and sunglasses drove me crazy. I'm thinking about going modular for windy and/or cold riding days and was wondering if any you guys have any recommendations. I do ride behind the Harley removeable windshield most of the time. With a face shield mounted on the open face helmet I get buffeting up under the shield along with the rain so that sucks. I've heard good things about the Shoei but price is a turn off unless the other ones are a waste of money. What do you think?
thanks in advance.

been looking for a new helmet for the OL' (there are way to many brands and models out there) she final picked an HJC from leatherup.com

My open face is an HJC, in fact, most of the Harley helmets are HJC. Did she get a modular HJC?

no she got a half helmet with removable neck skirt, CS-2N or something like that. I have a full face HJC that my grandson wears when he rides with me, I've got freinds that wear modulars and swear by them.
Check with cardboard I think he wears a modular helmet.

I've always used the retro bubble face shield with a 3/4 helmet and they work great. Keeps out wind, bugs, etc. I don't use a windshield, so this works as a sort of portable windshield.

I've got Panoptyx convertible googles (foam inserts detach) and a hanky for when the sand is blowing hard. Anything else is just a cage to me.

ani't that a windshield I see on the RK in your avatar?

Ha!

I agree up to a point. <y favorite helmet for summer is my Harley "hybrid" shorty. But with the wind blowing 40-50. temps in the 30-40 F range, I still ride and maybe my age is showing but the "Cage" over my head sounds a little more comfy at those times.
