what type of helmets do people wear on their tigers?

Seen mixed lids on some BMW GS adventure bikes... some full face race, some flip, some open face.

how about Tigers new and old.

Mustang

all of the above and sometimes none  :wink:

Arai Tour X3 - And yes, shamelessly got the idea from Long Way Round. But I took the visor off, looks great without :)

I had a Caberg Sintesi until the chin piece just cracked and flew off during a very light crash!!

Beware of the flip fronts gents...

AGV Stealth SV , bought it as it has an integral dark sun visor, no more messing around changing visors when riding at night  :)

The Midnight Rambler

Still got my old Schuberth C2. When I replace it I will probably go C3 but the Shoei Neotec is a possibility.

Shoei Multitec

Bought because it fits my head. Tried a lot of helmets.
It's tested and approved as a full face helmet. I.e. the flip front is a structual part. It's locked with metal parts.

When I bought it I wore glasses that where nearly impossible to put on in a full face helmet. Since then I've gotten laser eye surgury so the next one will probably be a Shoei XR-1100.

The last one I had before that was a Nolan N102. Never crashed with it. It just got too roomy over time.

Arai Tour X3 decent weather
Arai Astro for winter as it has less air flow.
If I had to choose one it would be the Astro
