Anyone here have any experience with "Head Case" brand helmets?

Motodirect.com is now an authorized dealer and is selling them.

They have a modular (flip-up) model with an adjustable sunshield that is a little bit less than HJC's.

I am generally happy with my HJC CL-15, but it is showing wear inside, and want to get a modular with an internal sunshield.

Wow, I couldn't find a review anywhere.  Strange.

Nope, they weren't in the recent MCN modular comparo, and motodirect appears to be the exclusive distributor.

I see one independent evaluation thus far.  Positive, but very short on details of any sort.

If I was a bit richer and not already awaiting too much junk via mail order, I'd take one for the team and order one - heck, they're under $100.

I will probably end up ordering the 908 model as soon as they receive the overpants I have been waiting for. I currently have their non-leg zip overpants (3 years old), and they are excellent, no need to wear the quilted liner in 35 degree weather. It is a real pain in the butt not having full-leg length zippers when commuting daily.

Their full-zipper overpants are such a good deal that they ran out of my size a few months ago. They claim that customs is holding a huge shipment (probably because the contents are made mostly in Pakistan, and they might have to screen everything for Taliban surprises).
