The Prima medium from Scooterworks is a common choice.

I have the Cuppini short (post-2006, item WSBUD3) from Scooterworks. I like the shape of this guy a little better than the Prima - it provides a little lower coverage around the headset/headlight rather than being all above it like the Prima. I would think the Prima lets in a good bit of air below the screen. They look like they're about the same height.

I'm with you. Full face helmet or not, why have a wind screen that deflects the wind onto your face and shakes your helmet as well? Better no wind screen than that.

I seem too to have an absolute aversion to a full face helmet, claustrophobia you know. I do however wear a 3/4 with a face shield. After about a year of buddy ownership I got a Prima wind shield and love it. It gets about 90% of the wind up and over my head and I'm about 5'8"

What Kabarash says. I wear a half helmet with a face shield and all my
rides have windshields as well. :wink:
