anyone know the best place for helmet fitting?
for the life of me, i can't find a helmet that fits me. my current helmet, an old-ish Arai NR3, is the onyl comfortable helmet i'v ever found, tho it may not fit as good as it should. i'v tried every brand of helment i've been able to get my hands on, including the arai signet which _should_ fit the same as the NR3, but doesn't for me.
so, what i'm wondering is if there's a good custom helment fitting shop out there somewhere. maybe there's a place that builds fully custom shells (like they do for F1 drivers), or adjusts off the shelf helmets to fit properly. there are plenty of custom leather shops, why not custom helmets?
thx

What you need to do is to try an Arai and be able to experiment with the different cheek pads, etc.

depending on your location there may be an actual helmet specialty shop.
there's a place in daytona beach that has more helmets than you could ever try on in a day....

You know you fucking board admins piss me off. A post from you is like a squirty stream of brown instead of a solid turd. You can't help but shit all over four or so boards at once!

Just that board admins can't just post something in one forum...No, they gotta mirror it across two or more.. So you end up going to each forum and instead of seeing new posts, you just see the one post, over and over...
