Has anyone done a study on the affect the color of a helmet has on
appearance? For example, do white helmets appear smaller than black?
I'm asking because a lot of helmets on me appear to be bulbous, and I
want to get a helmet that seems as streamlined as possible. I'm
looking at open -faced or 3/4 helmets.

Darker colors generally appear smaller than lighter colors.

I have done a study on open faced and 3/4 helmets.
My conclusions are that I would be dead if I wore one back in 2001.
Full face is the only helmet that offers the protection to save your head
AND face in the event of catastrophe.
