Not Every One Has A Oval Head!

leather padding?

Nah, I was just joking . What kind of foam do they have in Japan - how is it different ??? Harder? Softer? You know what I mean ~

no, sry xD

what i mean is that the head shape is different. (probably not PC) between asians and europeans. so that foam inlay thingy in any shoei or arai hellmet is different.

i cut out a good 1cm foam on the forehead of my shoei gt air. and i ve tried on a lot of hellmets.
the shop staff even told me to order a european one from ebay xD

hope i don t sound racist. but anthropologists can tell race just buy skull shape. or am i wrong xD

It's not racist at all, it's a fact there are physiological differences between races and even between different tribes and regions on the same continent. It now appears to be called forensics.

before i get a lid, i look at some video reviews. usually revzilla does a good job at explaining the internals. i have an oval head. I've had a couple of helmets made for round heads and they're not very comfortable for me. i have a bell 500 that is fine for a little while but doesn't stay in place well because of it's shape. if i try to snug it down really good it puts pressure on my forehead and crow and gets uncomfortable after a bit. If i'm wearing my sparx helmet, i'm usually much more comfortable because it's a better fit. don' be afraid to try a few on before you buy anything to find out what your ideal helmet should be.
