	The BMW Systems helmet accomplishes this very neatly with an
articluating jaw piece (mandible?). It will fit nicely over the head
wearing glasses and then you snap (clomp?) the mandible in place. It works
quite well, and the helmet performs well in all other areas too. See
your friendly BMW dealer.
