Has anyone tried the HCI Italian 16 Dual Visor helmet?
Any opinions.
In fact any opinions on different styles of helmets for new riders would be
appreciated.
thanks

There's a bunch of information on helmets and such here:
http://www.webbikeworld.com/
An index is on the left.
I've worn flip ups for a bunch of years due to wearing glasses.
There are some regular full face helmets that can accommodate glasses.
It's probably trial and error to find them. One trick is to cut the
earpieces off to eliminate the bended part that fits behind the ear.
One more thing. Earplugs. Get some.

No need to butcher the frames -- just get bayonet (straight) temples,
such as are used on military sunglasses.

...and organ donors. Don't forget the public service aspect of going
helmetless.
