There's a nice deperado that's gonna go cheap on ebay right now but I've never tried one on.
Have any of you guys wore one of these Desperados?
That chin spoiler might help keep the head from whipping around on highway runs. My current old-school bandit isn't very aerodynamic.(or safe, 1981!)
Is it hard to look down or around with that chin spoiler?
The helmet was really designed for open-wheeled race cars, so you know it's built for raw, in-your-face speed.

For reasons of self preservation I would not even consider using one of those on a bike. Like you say it is built for car use in fully supporting car seats.
Look for something else Cale

Whoa. Alright. I'll go for a Super Bandit. That was my second choice.
I'll take your word for it.
-thanks Alf.
