It is kevlar... Why you hate it?
I use a light leather jacket for around town rides, and a Scorpion jacket for trips on the open road. HJC open face helmet. Leather gloves. Sturdy leather shoes.

I am not forced, I just like, but the only point that I am worry is the weight, there is a possibility that the weight bring problems to the servical? I use for no long that 15 to 20 minutes...
Mine is not to much uncomfortable...

Exactly. And they're heavy as hell and suck even more when you strap night vision goggles to the front.

Is that a PASGT? Are you talking about protection from shrapnel or road safety?
In terms of Kevlar helmets I prefer the MICH 2001-2.
The modernized retention system is very comfy and stable.

I just purchased a HJC modular model no longer being made. It fits great and was only $64 plus shipping. New Enough .com Tony C.

Hahhaha, boths... Do you know where I am from??? hahhaa
Maybe I buy the new retention system for my PASGT...
H-D brand made by AGU half-shell fiberglass/aramid hybrid helmet with zip out winter liner. 35 year old Sears leather jacket finally fell apart last year and couldn't be repaired any more so I'm in the market for another like it. Rode all winter without it and never got cold. Gloves vary with season from patent leather Army surplus leather gloves with or without wool liners to wool liners inside welding gloves. I've got a pair of long gauntlet leather gloves but they make my fingers go numb even when warm-- too small.
Prescription safety glasses.
Do crash bars count? Fairings?
PS. I forgot my super sturdy waterproof leather boots that eat foot-peg rubbers for breakfast.

Where I live the cops would be all over you for that helmet. That said, it's probably better than what the law requires.
