KBC's fit my head well so I'm sticking with the brand. They also have excellent customer service. The snap on my strap broke & when I called them to see if I could get another strap, they said they'd send a call tag & box for the helmet, replace it & ship it back at no charge. I'm going to do that after I get another helmet because it will be passed down to Mini-Me. It fits her much better than it does me now. I'm hoping by next summer to have her take the MSF & have a baby ninja for her as well so she needs better gear than what she's wearing now for 2up riding.

def stick with what works, I never even wore a kbc so I def want to try one on first to see how it fits. I will prolly try on a bunch at the bike show next month or try to get to a dealer so if I take an XL with the kbc I will get that reaper lid, cant beat that for a hundred bucks

Just glad it isn't the weekend. Since I'm at work I could care less. I'm just glad it held off enough to have my windshiled replaced this morning, rock on the drive home yesterday jumped up and bit me...nice little crack.

Oh, I thought you were still up in GA. I thought you were taking a week or something off, my bad. Okay, so nasty in PB too. Yesterday wasn't bad most of the day but I spent it in bed and then the rain came later in the afternoon/evening. I read a book, watched a little tv and let the rain whisper a lullaby to me on the windows. It wasn't that bad.

Nah...left yesterday morning just after 5 to avoid the traffic, drive wasn't bad - a little bit of traffic and rain at times. The bad rain was as soon as I left on the back country roads in the pitch dark.

wow, you did get an early start. My ex came back from Ocala with the kids yesterday and it took him a little over 8 hours to get from there to here and it's normally only a 6 hour drive, he said traffic was horrible around the Orlando area.
