I'm looking at buying a new helmet, currently have a full-face '07 model from HJC. I find it comfortable but its getting a bit tatty so looking at something new. Don't want to spend more than £130-140.

What helmets do people recommend/have? I'm open to flip-ups for convenience when in shops/petrol stations and on pillion.. but refuse to go open face.. i like my face without road rash, even though i dont intend to come off.

I was thinking of getting a black helmet with a black visor, but not sure if its technically 'legal' to do so to wear it all the time.. I've been told black for day, clear for night..

Buy the best fitting helmet.

Black visors aren't strictly legal, but most coppers will turn a blind eye if they are used responsbily.

That is all.
