I know several people that have gotten those recently. They seem to be pretty happy with them. I myself went with the Fulmer V2 Bobber. Better color selection IMO.

I too bought a Fulmer V2 bobber. I like the retro look but I have a real hard time getting it on and off as its real tight below the ears. At the same time, the padding's not thick enough at my temples and I get a huge amount of wind noise to the point that I have started wearing ear plugs.
I know its just the shape of my mellon but I wish someone local would've stocked the Bell 500 so I coulda tried it on.
As far as you go I'd go with the one on the right.

I do this "pull out, roll on" thing when I put mine on but I find it very comfortable. You're right Mike about the wind noise. At first I thought it was me but I'm about to do the plug thing too. Still like the helmet though.

i've tried them on and for comfort i put them up there with the Davida and at 1/2 the cost, not too bad. It looks like the Davida should be a lower profile but my melon is big (for a little guy) and so they both ride a little high.
I picked up the burnt orange one but might bring in in a change it for the white...who knows.

I'm a big fan of LM and it looked like it was coming down to either one of those or a Biltwell. In the end I went with the Fulmer because of fit, DOT approved and cost. The LMs and Biltwell's aren't DOT. You can see it in the HMT Fistful of Choppers vid.
Do what I did. Just get whatever helmet, order a Loser Machine shirt and slap one of the stickers they send you on your lid.
I'm with you on this one.
My 18 mth old helmet is one of these in black.

We get ripped off in Australia, will be purchasing online from now on.
Anyone else using Extreme Supply based in Signal Hill CA?
My one and only purchase (so far) with them went very well.

I like 'em. I sometimes use a Bell R/T, great on those hot days.

I've got the Fulmer V2 Bobber too. I went with Gold metal flake. I figure the cagers could see it better.

Not so much for the phone calls, but for the tunes. I hate in-ear headphones, and it would be nice to have something wireless.

thought the same and bought the 'burnt orange', liking it so for.The silver was a little too flashy.
