Properly Sizing a Motorcycle Helmet 

Ugh finally a video showing what it looks like when a helmet is too big or too small. Every other video had been generic to the measuring and the shape but doesn’t touch on how to know if it’s fitting how it should or it’s too big/small. Thanks guys!

sometimes all u need to do is replace the cheek pads with a smaller or bigger size. helmet shells are shared with sizes that change based on the thickness of the pads inside.

this was the most helpful sizing video i have found, thanks

I am new to riding so I went to a motorcycle store and a lady came to help me. I told her I was brand new to riding but I had been on their website looking at the styles of helmet/jacket/gloves that I liked. She was pleased that I had brought some ideas with me. She measured my head and brought multiple helmets out for me to try on. I must have tried 6 or 7 in total and settled on a HJC helmet that fit the best. I can't recommend going into a store and trying stuff on enough over buying a helmet or jacket blind online.

Great info. Easy to comprehend.

ope, i got a helmet thinking it was right cause i could feel it all around my head but i can fir my whole hand up in the lining unfortunately and it does move if i shake my head but it always kind of went back to the same spot, i might need to get a smaller one then

I have a big head and when I got my first helmet I told the lady “give me the biggest helmet you have for my big head.” She gave me a 3XL but I fee like it’s still to small! My cheeks feel a little bit squished and I can’t really breathe when I have it on. But the chin strap is in the right spot and I can’t imagine how big my head must be to have to have a 4XL! Do I just have the wrong one for my head shape?

but what if everything fits perfeclty but overtime ot got bigger and now it wiggles right and left if i do it.

How do I know what my head shape is?

I bought mine really expensive and guess what it’s too smallll

big ass head here, size XL, I think i ahve round head

If you're not absolutely sure if the helmet is of proper fit while trying on a few at a "NO HELP/KNOWLEDGE" big ticket store, do yourself a huge favor... Go to a motorcycle shop and ask them to find that perfect - and yes, I mean perfect in every sense of the word because your head requires a perfect fit! Remember; fit over cosmetics! Fit is crucial whereas beauty of the helmets color is irrelevant!

i think women model will be nice :)..
