[Jonesy]

what is best for track days? open face or full face?

 

[A2ON]

would not catch me wearing a open face ever !

Ive just brought a new helmet with HANS for track days OTT but cant be too safe.
now all i need is a cage

 

[Ashton]

i agree with this man here ^^^

full face all the way

I have an AGV K4 and Emma has a Shoei XR1100

I'm quite happy with an open face myself, I have airbags and don't plan on putting my 200 on its roof.

I've always run with a simple OMP Clubman helmet, can get them from Demon Tweeks for about £75 or less.

Does the job and means you can still communicate with your passengers without shouting.

I prefer the feel on open face but have a full face as I need it for open cars.

Currently have a Arai GP5W with Hans for racing but looking at a new Arai soon so might be for sale. Otherwise I don't think the V2 is too bad for the price.

full face all the way for me too lad

 

[jostheboss]

Wow, you really need a GP5 for track days!?

 

[ado]

Not for trackdays but for racing. GP5 is way too much for just trackdays.
