I disagree about the Shark fitting similar to Shoei. Most Shoeis are "intermediate oval" while most Sharks are pretty round. What this means is that Shoei gives you more room front-to-back than Shark does. I can't pull a Shark on past my nose, but I fit an X11.
Most Sharks fit like the old Arai Quantum .........Good for Chinese and other people with wide, round faces, but not good for most Europeans because their heads are usually longer front-to-back than they are side to side. Now they do make 1 or 2 models (the S-800 or something?) that have an oval fit, but all of their high-end helmets like the RSR are pretty round. Pissed me off because I like their paint jobs and visors. Last edited by Homeslice; 01-19-2011 at 03:33 PM.. |
