Right behind you.
Here are my latest helmets.

...I like the vintage look and these match my bikes. What do you think? What does yours look like?

Years ago, when I started drag racing for a while, I had to buy a helmet. Bought a full face because I thought I might do a motorcycle again someday.
I always think how much better a full is in the case of a face-plant.
When you get older, you think of pain avoidance more often. They are hot though.
Come summer, I am thinking about one of those motocross fulls.

The heat is what is keeping me from a fullface helmet....On the street it has reached over 120 here...(used a thermal gun from work....the temp directly on the pavement was 135) The motocross full I may need to check out.
 
i use a generic DOT shorty with a "drag specialties" shield, kevin scored big-time on a "zox bino" for $35 shipped:

The only bad thing is that it's really hard to see at night.
right, and i had to put some thought into that, myself. i'd used 2 sets of goggles before i decided to try a shield full time. my half-shield is permanent, so i figured: clear shield at night, sunglasses underneath during the day. but the clear shield doesn't leave much clearance at the corners, & my dark goggles wouldn't fit, shoot!

then i found these wrap-arounds and now i'm a happy bubba :cool:

I always preferred a full face helmet ever since the day I did a power slide on my dirt bike and hit the curb with my face. I just picked up this Bell Zephr on clearance for $39 at Iron Pony.
