All my motorcycle/snowmobile helmets where stolen a year ago so I only have the multi-sport for the bicycle. I prefer the modular style for ease of getting into and ability to have a drink of water while it's on. But, I think I'll try a moto-cross style when I get a scooter. I learned the wisdom of face protection when I crashed my racing snowmobile and had the chine bar almost ground through. My face is too pretty to do that to it.  |

Shouldn't the DC charging voltage also be 13.3+ but less than 14.5. That is what I adjusted my early motorcycle to.

I've never used it on clear plastic so, the testing will have to be left up to you. Try it some where out of the normal viewing area first. But I think orange peel or runs could be an issue.

If you do choose to paint, I've used the Krylon paint with UV clear coat on a couple helmets and the lower half of a motorcycle wind screen, it is pretty tuff and easy to clean up blemishes. I think I would us Plasti Dip on the inside of a light weight wind screen.  |

Paint it all over with Plasti Dip and it will be just fine.  |

Rich, Maybe we could start a business ?. I'll buy them here and You sell them out there. I'm always up to making some extra $$$. PM me. It's been tried by a couple dealers but didn't work out.  It seems most people want new or at least the women do. When I bought my fold down a new one was the same price as a 15 year old that needed screens and soon to need canvas repairs. But of course cheaper quality if you look close.
