Yeah, then I'm saving up for a trip to the South Pacific islands so I can get my head shrunk, enough to fit inside these danged tea-cup sized helmets.   :biggrin:
Cheers,

P.S. Life is too short, and health is too valuable, to ride on cheap parade-duty tires.

I hear ya Red. Until other manufacturers come out with a long oval design, I'm staying with my Arai.
No pressure sores on my forehead for me....they suck.

Poor Knobbie, I wonder how he's doing?

Well if Vanuatu was one you were going to get it done at, better be quick before it's the South Pacific Arm of the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF).

You won't be allowed in then!

I'm with you Pat. The Arai fits my noggin perfectly.

I'm not an Arai nut  :sarcastic: , but they are the best fit for me. I used to prefer Shoei, and before that AGV.

I'm not sure if my head changes or the way the brands design the fit. I just go with what feels best.

As far as the gadgets go, hmmm, that's for my cage.... :blush:
