Re: Pipe dream?

I went for the GP-5 because I thought it might be the only helmet I ever wore so I wanted something that would look good on a shelf and was what F1 drivers wore at the time... In retrospect I'd have probably been happier with the 5K because the wider eye opening makes it possible to wear sun glasses if the weather changes suddenly and the field of vision is more sedan friendly if you go that way down the road. They're both great helmets. The 5K is probably the more practical choice and its cheaper.
