Noticed most of the open faved jet type helmets have more of a bowl shape inside.. my heads too long for these so it doesnt fit well, does anyone know of an open faced helmet which will fit? Cheers guys.

I have an enormous head. My Caberg open face is a pretty good fit.

Looks quite normal to me, I was expecting something a little more "Horsey".

Why do you want an open faced hat anyway? I have used them (I have also used pudding basins) but my last crash on the road in a full face ripped chunks out of the hat, when I looked at it I was so glad it was not my flesh that took the impact. I saw a guy last month with half a chin and very little nose, guess what hat he had on when he crashed?

A badger? Strapped on with bungie cords? They can be quite aggressive when worn as makeshift headwear.

Holy crap! That woman appears to have a horse for a hand, either that or the horse got peckish.

Wanted one for summer for just around town work Very Happy and can then keep it on for menial tasks without them thinking im gunna mug and rob the place, all the while getting away with impared vision. I know the risks and have a full face too for anything more then a few miles

Also wouldnt use in winter, anyone seem dumb and dumber? Where they end up with icicles hanging off their nose. Ha.

Slightly off topic.. anyone notice how heavy helmets are? Or ever wonder if they make your neck stronger? Was made to think it when a friend got a bike, and he mentioned how he found the helmets really heavy on his head. I cant remember if when i first started i though it heavy, just got used to it

Could always go for the topgear vietnam style colander, cooking pot helmet style.. Laughing Very Happy
