Warning: I think full-face masks slow you down more than they help
They add bulk and reduce agility in tight spaces.

Yeah it's true, they can feel so heavy and block your side vision. Just feels like fighting the gear sometimes.

My Arai helmet from last year actually feels pretty light to me. I see what you mean, @elliotl31, but I don't really fight with it like that. I mean, after a few rides I got used to the weight and the vision thing isn't bad for me. Maybe it's just me but I focus more on the road ahead so side stuff isn't a huge deal. Idk, it might depend on the fit or how you set it up.

Fighting the gear is right. I spent a whole ride last week just trying to get my head to turn against the wind and the helmet weight, felt like I was doing neck day at the gym. I mean, maybe my neck is just weak, but it's a whole workout. I definitely get the bobblehead thing too, it's a real vibe check when a semi goes by.

My 2018 helmet turned my neck into a bobblehead lol.
