Default So what's a good open face helmet?

looking for something to wear when riding the scooter, so far I've been scoping Shoei Stuff, but don't really want to pay $200+ (brand new).

Anybody here have an openface helmet?

I don't have an open face, but I've got a Shoei Syncrotec (flip-face). It has the protective qualities of a full-face (only DOT though), but I can always flip the front open if I want to grab a snack to eat.

It's for the scooter, when I am working delivering pizzas.

But I think I'm just going to use my backup/chick helmet and save some $, it's an old Shoei RF700.

I really like the HJC open faced helmets. My step dad got one for his Goldwing and I like it.
