How much is my head worth?

While my Vespa is still in the shop getting a look-over, I took the opportunity to shop for a helmet. At first I had my eye on one of the Vespa Vintage Soft Touch helmets since they look so cool and appropriate for a classic scooter like my Super Sport. However, those helmets are only 3/4 coverage and not full face which may look totally sweet but aren't nearly as safe - to me there's nothing worse than the thought of cracking your jaw on some concrete just to look cool. It was tough, but in the end I went for a compromise and bought a modular helmet. These are unique in that you can flip up the whole face for a 3/4 feel, and then flip it down to get the protection of a full face helmet - all while still having the option of flipping up the visor. Scope the pictures - mine is the matte black one - but it has a clear visor. :-)
