Well now that Google has been fully engulfed by the monster that is the media, I am unhappily getting target media in my inbox. I visit a site and next time I log unto my email, lo and behold there is ads galore with the things I checked out while browsing.
Which of course led me to this
Here's the site link

It's to keep people from seeing how happy you are on your scoot!

"Rogue"? Looks more "Bane" to me.

Interesting, but it seems to take the worst parts of a half and full face helmet and forces the two together

I like that even though it isn't available and they are only taking pre-orders it has a 5-star review!

Hell yeah!
Wait...
Wut?
Actually... after watching the Revzilla Review... I kinda like it. For every reason that I shouldn't.
Very weird.

Looks like a scull wearing a 1/4 helmet

The two draw backs I see are, no visor, and that piece on the front looks like it would come right off if you were to encounter an accident, leaving your jaw attached to the asphalt. Maybe a few more refinements would fix that.

It's a passenger helmet
only......
As they refer to that front piece as a "Muzzle" more that once, that's so you don't hear them screaming!!

I too liked the idea until I found that the faceplate was ONLY plastic, and not meant for protection at all. not even a little bit? so.....I could just buy a half helmet from scorpion that still has the flip down visor?
Squid gear!
I still haven't convinced myself that even riding around town a half helmet is OK for me though.
