Really good modular helmets on sale. Schuberth Helmets are made in germany and are know to be one of the quitest. I had the C3 Pro and it was quiter than a full face helmet.
Solid colors are $324 and with graphics $399. Most sizes available. Scuberth runs smaller if you are in between sizes chose bigger size. For example I am a 58 cm and wear a Medium in Shoei and Arai but a Large in Schuberth

In Europe the C4 is ECE-R 22.05 and in the US it's DOT. The EU ECE-rated helmets aren't imported or DOT certified according to the C4 documentation at Schuberth. (The same disclaimer applies to the C5 according to them.) Does that mean they make different helmets for US and EU? I doubt it. But here's the quote direct from them:
This helmet has been tested and complies with the United States DOT FMVSS No. 218
Standard and does not conform to any other regulations or standards. It is only legal to use
the helmet in countries in which the DOT FMVSS No. 218 Standard is valid.

The C4 is pre 22.06 certification. The newer C5 does carry the certification
I do too but I don't understand how I can fit a helmet at the store and be able to know after an hours ride at speed whether it's going to have pressure points on my dome or not? Any advice?
Most stores will let you wear it for a 30 minutes in store. It's weird but worth it. Some stores have a policy where you can return it as long as it wasn't used for riding. That's the best. You can wear it around your home for about hour or so and if it hurts at the end, you'll know that the size is off. Good luck.

Not really. The extremely expensive helmets don't protect your head better. They are lighter, better build quality, quieter. Plus the 20% "snob" markup.
I have a Schuberth RS2 and I like it, with the only complaint being the expensive visors and the unholy noise above 120mph (although that's mostly my bike's windshield).
