[QUOTE="SacramentoMike, post: 1401203, member: 11508"] My opinion, anybody who isn't sure about a modular most likely hasn't tried one. Besides the advantage if you wear glasses or sunglasses, I think the benefit of being able to open it up to talk or get cool air in on any length stop--even a red light--seals the deal. Also being able to drink easily, even while moving, is huge. I know not everybody feels this way, but I just don't like the closed-in feeling of a full-face helmet anyway. Claustrophobic, I guess. As for the Dremel, I know a helmet that gives you a headache from constant pressure makes you want to throw it in a fire, but think about trying what I did with an old helmet that I got that same pressure from (forgot the brand). Instead of the Dremel, I tapped the hard foam in the front with a ball peen hammer until I created a little hollow where I needed it. Possible [I]slight [/I]reduction in impact protection, if I ever happened to land on that exact spot on the edge of a curb or something, but easy to put just the shape depression in the material exactly where I wanted it.
