melon head = shoei peanut head (like mine)=arai pisshead (no money) = takachi
whichever lid u choose u want a comfortable feel without being able to turn the lid when its strapped on yer bonce, ratchet clasp is ok and d-ring u will get used to quickly. when u do the strap up u need to be able to get one finger under strap, then keeping ur bonce still try an turn the lid. if ur ead move with the lid then a good fit, if the lid moves only then to big. also get one that is a complete mould, ie not a shit lid with join down the centre.
let us know which one u get, piccy piccy

not totally in agreement with this..I have peanut head XS used to have arai quantum e xs but now have shoei xsprirtII xs felt alot snuger when trying them on. but yes tried about 15 different helmets on to make sure i got one that i was comfortable with.
IMHO i buy the best I can afford as said at begining of thread only ever been issued 1 head & they haven't worked out how to make replacements heads that work as well as arm legs etc

Lazer Helmets are good - price/quality vise.

Re: Helmet - Strifae - 05-02-13
Along the same lines of a Helmet related question - I was looking at the Nolan N85 as my next helmet (currently have a Shoei XR1000) and I found some information that mentions Polycarbonate Helmets aren't as good as Fibreglass or equivailant?
The XR1100 is more expensive but Fibreglass... any ideas if this is tosh? or?
