In the UK, the open-face helmet is known as a piss-pot helmet. Personally I think open-face is more apt as after an accident where you might go head first down the road, doctors will also describe your injuries as "open-face"

How many hours you do it this and you have this size...?

"Just make sure, when you crash, you don't land on your face" Classic advise!!!!!!!

Could you do something similar with pasta shells? The very little ones you get? I have an Italian bike (Yamaha Veniciana) and I think a pasta helmet would look totally bad ass, pay tribute to the ingenuity of the Italian People, and also it would break up on impact to help protect my brains. What would you seal it with though? Some kind of carbonara epoxy?

That is so cool! Saw a Harley owner the other day with the required open face helmet,sunglasses and bandana. The only thing missing was the required beard! I suppose she could buy a stick on one? Then I get to thinking,if you could buy with your bike a pre made Harley face attitude it would save so much time. An open face helmet with built in bandana,sunglasses and beard? Pop it on and instant bad ass! A matching set of slip on tattoo sleeves would save pain and money and make image and lifestyle changes easy!,gloves with built n rings? What you think?
