    I've been satisfied with my modular (flip-up) full face helmet for long, multi-day rides. Here is WA State, the State Patrol Motor Officers all use them. If that type of helmet wasn't "safe," you'd bet that they wouldn't be using it day-in, day-out; hundreds of miles per shift. All that said... find what fits you...DOT plus Snell Rating would be highest rating... and makes you comfortable for the long haul (fitment... no pressure points... good ventilation... low wind resistance for reduced wind noise. Good luck with the hunt!

    Been using modular helmets for years, great convenience when you wear glasses. I don't have to take them off to put the helmet on. Using Shoei Neotec - changed out the cheek pads for best fit. BTW - You can't get a modular with the Snell rating - they won't do it. That's why Arai doesn't have any modular. But if you're not doing track speeds, you should be just fine with the DOT rating.
