[QUOTE="fundgh, post: 884654, member: 59187"] I am just getting into dirt riding, but the last bit of MC experience I had was plowing into the back of a stopped car doing about 40. I did considerable damage to my MC, and I took the tailgate on my mouth (guard). The helmet is done, but made a great sacrifice. I had on hiking boots (ruined), a polar fleece jacket (cut off by ems), and Jeans (ripped), but my head was OK. Point being...my helmet was the only piece of gear that I had invested in, and had I skimped and bought a German Soldier top cap, I would be missing everything from my nose down. I agree with the point that you should not skimp on a helmet, but the question in my mind is, are there helmets that DO NOT protect your head sufficiently? Are the $100 O'neal, Fox, Thor, Answer, No Fear, etc helmets lacking anything? Are the high dollar helmets going to protect you more in a crash, or are they just filled with bitchin' features like ventilation, paint, removable/washable foam? [/QUOTE]
