New Helmet Needed

I need a new helmet and having spent all my dosh on chrome and 1930's technology, I have just about an HJC budget left.

I've been happy with HJC. I've bought three CL14's, and more recently an FS-10 for my wife, and a CS-R1 for my 10-year-old son.

I've heard the "upgrade-level" AC12 is better ventilated and quieter than the "entry-level" CL shells. Can anyone corroborate this claim, or recommend a competitor's helmet that fits in the $200 range.

    AFX and GMAX both make good quality, inexpensive helmets. The reviews that I have read are usually positive. But I have to go somewhere and try them on. I have a long, thin head and if they are made for a more round head, they don't fit. I have had a GMAX and an HJC and like them both. If you get a Snell, be sure it is 2005 standard not the older harder ones. Good selection, and good prices here: http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/536/MNGR/Full-Face-Motorcycle-Helmets.aspx
