I may actually know the answer to this one already. But.....  ???

For riding in town (a small town); :ricky:
Riding only on odd occasions (Sunday afternoon putting around); O0
Max speed will be about 80kmh :deal:
Small bike <500cc :peepwall:

Can you justify the additional risk of using an old retro open-face helmet? ???
