Anyone know of one? What is everyone riding with? How do you like them? Ive got an old 1999ish arai haga replica and a cool agv rossi q3 but the padding is disintegrating. Time for new

I can't say that I do. When I ride the 250 I go with a Davida open face.

Uh-oh here comes the great ATGATT vs pudding bowl debate...
Personally, I have a Nolan N30 flashback that I use. Its kinda a 3/4 with a flip up shield. Think its been discontinued now.
I would love a Davida Classic as well.

Yeah I'm looking for a new helmet too.
I cant decide between open or full face. I'll probably settle on a more traditional style full face as I'm planning on getting an early model 916 in the next year or 2 so I'll want something I can wear whilst riding that and my Mach 1.

I have one of these. I know you were going for full face helmet, but this is the only DOT pudding bowl I could find. It is a bit thicker than the Davida, but looks close to period. The photo doesn't show it well, but the stripe is Italian tri-color. I got a nifty retro Ducati Compione del Mundo sticker to put on the front. I have an Arai Adamo replica full face, but it just seems too high tech while on the old 450.
